Pioneer Rack System

I have an opportunity to buy a Pioneer rack system. SPEC-1, SPEC-4, TX-9500 ll, RT-701, (2) JA-R101, SG-9800 along with the Studio Rack JA-R2S. The owner states “ SoundSmith basically performs major repairs if needed & upgrades per factory service bulletins and also performs proprietary upgrades for continued reliability and performance.” On all except the SG-9800. Can anyone enlighten me on The Soundsmith from Peekskill NY USA?

Not familiar with them at all but maybe some members from the New York area can chime in if they have. Good luck and that would be some gear to have.
 
Peter is famous for his cartridges. I don't know of anyone that's used him for restoration work (other than cartridges). But Peter is one of the "good guys" in the audio business.

I bought the system for $2500.00. The spec 4 lost a channel after two days and the spec 1 may have some issues. Can anyone recomend a good repair shop in Connecticut? The prevous owner and I are comunicating about the problems of the spec 1 & 4.
Thank you everyone.

Depending on what part of the state you live in I can recommend an excellent tech.
I can also recommend a well known gentleman to stay the hell away from as well.
Pm me and I'll give you the details.
 
Thanks Blue Shadow, I'm trying to find out if there was a wood cabinet for the SG 9800? I have the SA 9100, the TX 9500ll the CT F9191and would love to get a walnut case to match those pieces or contract someone to build it. Also, a follow up to a real old post....anybody recommend a tech in CT?

The brochure does not show a cabinet but there is discussion on ak about other cabinets that fit the 9800. There is also an esty shop with a wood box available for that eq.
