Panasonic PV-C1342 13-Inch TV/VCR Combo , Black
Not a fluke
I had the same problem with the audio on the tape playback. Needed to be almost twice as loud as the normal TV level. Took it to shop 4 times in the first six months of ownership. They said it was normal. Panasonic refused to help me with the issue. So, I own it, it doesn't work well, and less tha two months of usage by me. My advice is to buy seperate pieces. I think they are better made.
