SX-780 1980 the owner brought it for 395.00 and it worked fine until this year.  He sells it to me for 90.00 and I repair it and recapped the power supply and filter caps and turned it up and sell it for 800.00. 45 watts as Pioneer list it but this unit hits 56 watts before clipping.

I send it out knowing that it will last another 40 years.    No they just don't make them like this anymore...

Turn it up! 🤪

This tape was recorded in 1981

The equipment was made before 1979.

The video was recorded from a cellphone.

I've never had this 1080 past 80 watts and stay in the room. You can feel it outside.

HPM-100 200 watt version are mint a 10 out of 10.  The 1080 clips at 132 watts and that GX is the cats pajamas 6 heads  you can keep your CDs.

Have 2 SX1980. The killer of all receiver's can get 7 to 8k for each all day long..

 

yes I have a thing for the old stuff and the music was just as awesome. Disco Turn it up all the way.

Watching the tape go round and round brings back the 60'and 70's for me. 🤪

Yes like you said... They don't make them like they did back in the days...and bonus you can actually fix the unit... Are they the same speakers from 79? 

100% original and mint. From 1977

I did recap them...

Pre bywire and banana plug. The thickness of the copper on that board suggests a bit of quality.
