Twin finally arrives!!

The SX D5000 arrived damaged free due to great packing from seller:thmbsp:
Fantastic cosmetic condition with hardly a scratch on the face plate or cover.
The inners were almost dust free, So little cleaning and a lot of deoxit has it humming along:music:
All lights working, Very quite and superb sounding unit, One of Pioneer best for sure.

For now it will see only headphone duty for late night listening:yes: This for me, will complete the SX receiver side of Pioneer Fluoroscan series.

Congrats! Glad to hear she got there safe and sounding and looking good!
 
Here's my SX-D5000:

This is my office set up. That is a new Grant Fidelity Tube DAC-09 way on top, and it is multi-tasking for me. I've got my computer, Pioneer Elite PD-65, and also use it for my Sennheiser HD-580 headphones. Then everything goes from there into the SX-D5000 and out to a pair of Design Acoustics PS-10 speakers. Awesome set up, if I do say so myself. :music:

Wonderful set-up retro. Wow!
 
Since we're showing off our D's, here is my D7000 along with some of my favorite Pioneer gear. If Pioneer only made a CD player equal to the 707ESD I'd have a nice faimily portrait here....

BTW, put some power hungry speakers behind the D5000 (like my Snell b Minors) and you'll know why they made a D7000!

I'm curious as to which of the two you perfer sound wise; The SX D7000
vs the Sx1250:scratch2:

They both sound similar, but the edge from a purely sonic perspective would go to the SX-D7000, which seems to have a more upfront and accurate sound stage where the HF isn't veiled and bass heavy like the SX-1250, not that either of these receivers are audiophile accurate. They do nice on FM and the SX-D7000 has an even better tuner than the very good SX-1250 IMHO.

The better question is why bother with receivers when you have a Series 20 separate system:banana:

I agree on the tuner section:yes: My local jazz station broadcast from the University of Arizona comes in so clear it's frightning:music: Miles Davis was playing the other night and it was if Coltrane was playing right in front of me.:yes:
 
One more shot of my newest SX-D5000. Running with a Pioneer PD-7010 and an old pair of KLH Model 22 speakers.......

Do you use your dac9 with the preamp output mod or as a straight dac? I'm interested in this dac. Now good is this unit? The Dagogo review stated that it adds extra reverb and distortion to the sound. Is this objectionable?
