Vintage YAMAHA PC-8 3-piece Classic Audio System Boombox

Vintage YAMAHA PC-8 3-piece Classic Audio System Boombox Introduction

This relatively-rare portable 1980s 3-piece Yamaha “Natural Sound” system is more of a mini-component system than a simple boombox. It’s heavy (12kg), better built, and sounds much better. The PC-8 puts out 15 watts per channel (!) on AC power and has two detachable wood-cabinet bass-reflex speakers. It also features: • 5 channel EQ • Dolby B and C noise reduction • Full logic controls • Auto reverse recording and playback • Phono input • Two headphone jacks • Separate recording level controls • YMS – Yamaha Music Search function • Runs on 10 “D” batteries or AC Condition: The following are working properly: FM tuner in stereo, AM tuner, phono input, EQ both speakers, speakers, lights and controls. The cassette player does not play properly, rewind and FF work but does not play – the motor can be heard running but the tape does not move (probably a belt problem?). Auto-reverse is functioning. Recording function and YMS could not be checked because the tape doesn’t move. Complete and cosmetically very good. Battery compartment and cover are clean. Antenna undamaged. Minor surface wear but no notable cracks, dents, or marks. Please look at the pictures carefully and ask questions.
