  • This receiver is in the shop more or less to check if the previous owner did a good job recapping the entire unit. He did a excellent job with quality capacitors, he missed 4 caps that I was able to check and replace, I was able to touch a few points and some I am not able to but the video will tell you my story....

    The tuning meter has a capacitor hidden and hard to reach under either the tone board or the flat board, I forget which. I opted not to change it since my meter was functioning as normal and I was unable to reach it without spending a lot more time in disassembly.

    The SX-xx50 series are some of my favorites, I'm an original owner of an SX-1050 that was full restored coming up on 3 years now. They have really robust power supply sections and sound great - thanks for your time!

    Great video!! Goes to show some of the complexities in these old receivers.

    Good work. It seems to me, given the many videos in which they are featured compared to integrated amplifiers, that receivers in the United States have been much more popular than in Italy.

    I'm glad to see you again. I checked the service manual and found that the tuner chips for this device can be ordered from Ali Baba without any problems. I have ordered microcircuits for old devices from them several times and I have always been pleased with the quality. All microcircuits from them work without problems. if you are interested, I can send links to them

    Love this one Joe ! Not too packed in there and easier to get access.. wish Pioneer had put the power supply on the top though, for better heat discharge. Nice nice receiver and great vid ..as always. Enough good clean power to enjoy the music LoL

    How much does recapping totally cost like if you go to a good electronics repair place?

      Hi Paul, this pioneer would be very expensive to recap...but I'm sure you can buy a restoration kit for this reviever...check ebay.
