So after months of reading through reviews on AK and trying to become educated on the advantages/disadvantages of how you piece together a decent set-up, I got a plan to acquire the following pieces over the coming months/year. I'm not into buying a whole collection of audio equipment (seems like everyone probably starts by saying this), I just want a medium quality analogue system I can enjoy music on for the next 25 years.
I've decided on the following arrangement in order of acquisition priority:
Pioneer HPM 100s (200 watt) speakers - HAVE
Pioneer SX-1010 receiver
Dual 1229 or PL590/PL570 turntable
Pioneer SG-9500 equalizer
Pioneer CS-99a speakers
Pioneer RT-909 reel to reel
My questions for the knowledgeable here are:
SX-1010
Is there a known seller/restorer of Pioneer on AK that I would be better off waiting until they have one available (i.e. pay for bartertown) or am I better to find the best cosmetic condition one I see on Ebay and get it restored through a trusted tech on AK?
I see a lot of "recapped" on Ebay but it's hard to tell if they are restoring the right things on this amp with the right parts.
Turntable
Any opinions on Dual with Sx-1010?
thanks
