Boxx Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Well, wouldn't you know it. I was in the vintage stereo shop to fix up my Yamaha CA-800 (which really is amazing when set to Class A) when I had a chance to listen to a customer's freshly refurbished, Pioneer SX-1250. I was blown away, I thought to myself-this is what I remember. Go home last night, look on Craigslist and this morning am the proud second owner of a pristine version of same, complete with owners manual and schematics. Of course this means I'm in the market for yet another set of Klipsch to hook them to. It never ends-but that's a good thing, at least in my mind. And of course there is getting in line for another five or six months to get the Pioneer recapped, etc. Well done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxx Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 One thing that is nice is that there are quite a few tech.'s around that can still service these units.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1UC Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) so your getting the same setup as A1uc? His is different , I'm guessing he had a SUT added - Mine is just for MM Edited July 20, 2014 by A1UC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) so your getting the same setup as A1uc?His is different , I'm guessing he had a SUT added - Mine is just for MM Pretty much, I asked for the whole enchilada edit: The last 4 NOSValves pieces I bought did not include "everything offered". No offense Craig but I intend for this to be the last time you drain my wallet so I had the SUT, caps and low / high Z outputs included. I just bought a new HOMC cartridge so I don't plan on getting LOMC anytime soon but this time I will be prepared for the long haul.

ajoker2c Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Humble little pick up this week. Bought the 1st edition off forum member a couple years ago and regretted selling it. This 3rd edition one is a far better amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted July 21, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 21, 2014 They're padded, have a lot of pockets and are roomy. Ours was a generic grey with a red horizontal stripe. Just so many smelly memories from those bags I never thought about them, was thrilled to finally get rid of them years ago. Grandkids, they have parents for that fun job. But it is a really good idea, leave a smelly diaper on the top and no one would ever steal it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Just the THOUGHT of smelly diapers keeps potential thieves away from a DIAPER bag, filled with CAMERA gear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
