Well I have three of these, CT-F1000, CT F750, and CT F7171. Way more than the woof likes!!:nono:
Is it true that the 750 is the only auto reverse silver deck?
 
In the CT-Fxxxx series, the CT-F1050 had auto reverse. Outside that series, many decks had it (I count at least 18).

So, why only two CT-Fxxxx decks with auto reverse?

Doc
 
Interesting that the 950 shows the same FR spwc for metal and chrome tape, thought metal was the better media, perhaps it has a better S/N ratio :scratch2:

Dr. Strangelove, I am in the process of checking out/cleaning up a CT-F1000, and I noticed the motors have a date of Nov 1977 on them, but your specs list it as realeased in 1979.... Is this unusual?
 
Holy Smoley Doc -- on the one hand this info is fantastic..... THANKS!!! On the other hand, maybe you need another hobby or to get out of the house some? :naughty: Anyway, thanks for posting all this, it's great!
 
Hi Doc...
A great piece of info there. The pic of the CT-F1000 brings back fond memories of the new one that I bought in '80.

Youse guys are makin' a Pioneer freak outta me...SX-3800, PD-59 ( in 2 days!!) and maybe a PL-L1000 iffen the price war doesn't go much higher.
 
Doc, thanks for all the catalog pictures, you are the MAN when it comes to pioneer photos.

Harvey/ Ga, how do you like that PD-59? Although I found it to be a little light weight, I am very pleased with mine.
 
Deck Pioneer Ctf 506

Hi buddies, i have a little common CTF 506, why is not easy to find ?
is almost the same that 505 ? This one have the back of VU in black
:sigh:
 
Hi, i think Deck PIoneer CT 600 is the another one with autoreverse mode in the silver era !!!
