jimjimbo Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Item is SOLD For sale is a lovely Pioneer SX-1250 receiver. Great shape, a few tiny nicks here and there, but as you can see in the photos, it looks great. Solid oak cabinet that is beautiful. This is one of the most highly regarded and collectible receivers ever made. A spectacular 160 watts. Tone controls are fantastic. Supports multiple pairs of speakers. Sound quality is simply awesome. I have had this hooked up at different times to LSI splits, Khorns, Chorus IIs, La Scala, Heresys, HIPs. Specs available here: https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/pioneer/sx-1250.shtml The following work was performed by my highly respected tech not long ago: Main filter caps replaced All out of spec capacitors and resistors replaced on all boards All transistors checked and replaced as necessary Tuner aligned All outputs checked and working Fully cleaned and lubed Faceplate and glass cleaned and polished All lights replaced as necessary Only minor issue is antenna bracket in rear is missing. Not interested in trades. Only Paypal or MO or check. $1250.00 I would highly prefer local pickup, or I will drive an hour or so to meet. I am located in NW Indiana, South Bend area. If you want this unit shipped, it will be the full responsibility of the buyer to make arrangements for the shipping service, packaging and full value insurance. Please PM me if seriously interested. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstrickland1 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I bought one brand spanking new when I was 16. I worked all summer at the local tomato packing sheds and bought it at a regional department store named Sam Soloman's (later became Service Merchandising). I have regretted selling it ever since. If I could get it in my hands by some means other than FedEx or UPS I would have a problem... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avguytx Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Beautiful receiver. Brings back memories of the SX-1980 and 1080 I owned about 10 years ago. That 1980 was/is a beast at 76lbs and this 1250 isn't far off. GLWS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
