TUBE-LIKE FET SOUND, TOP OF THE LINE 1971 MODEL
A FAIRLY RARE TUNER, NICE, ALL-ORIGINAL, SERVICED, WORKS AND SOUNDS LIKE NEW
It makes for a perfect match for SA-900 amplifier, also SA-7100, SA-9100, Sansui AU-555, AU-999, Marantz 1040, and a number of other smaller footprint vintage amps. The audiophile sound quality parable to that of small Marantz 1968-1977 production tuners, but this Pioneer has much better sensitivity/selectivity. In other words, it is just as good as Marantz 112, but pulls in more stations and costs less.
All fuses are original.
This TX-900 will be tested for local Ottawa area buyer at the front door with a vintage amp and speakers. Can be shipped in Canada, keep reading.
DESCRIPTION:
