Item Description:
Panasonic RQ-S15 is the flagship model from the early 90s, designed as a direct competitor to the Sony EX series. With a fully metal enclosure and an advanced amorphous head, it delivers premium-quality sound.
This specimen is a rarity on the second-hand market, as it is complete and functional. The included external AA battery adapter solves the power issue that often affects these models. It comes from my private collection and is preserved in a visual condition that will satisfy the most demanding collector.
Private collection:
This model is part of a larger collection. In my other listings you will find other vintage audio gems (including Sony WM-702, Ibanez, Aiwa). I offer combined shipping for multiple won auctions.
