    Pioneer SA-9500II - Tingling Sensation when touching faceplate or lid

    Hi guys, I have had a beautiful Pioneer SA-9500II in my possession for a couple of weeks now.

I...

    Pionner SX-1010 Trips Relay Once After Sitting for 2 Days.

    Hi everyone, I have a mostly restored pioneer SX-1010. All the caps have been replaced and about 80% of the transistors have been replaced. My guess is that my issue stems from an old transistor. When I use my pioneer consistently it is completely fine and sounds fantastic. If I let the unit sit...

    RT-707 Reel To Reel Sensing Tape Question

    Hi all. I scored myself a beautiful Pioneer RT-707. One of the features of this reel to reel deck is the auto reverse function. All it needs is a piece of sensing foil to trigger when the tape reverses. So, I bought myself a 10.5 ft. roll of the sensing foil. It really doesn't appear to be too...
