You are a young man with an old soul. I remember when my ship was in Japan in 1978. All of these receivers and amplifiers were laid out before me, and I would spend hours at the Navy Exchange looking at all of these beautiful pieces of stereo gear, not able to make up my mind. The stereo wars were the greatest time in audio history and it was fun to be a part of it.
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing the story Mike! I wish I could find pictures of these Exchanges!
One of my brothers was a US Marine back then. We got a Kenwood and a Pioneer that blew our hair back. Yeah we loved the 1970's too. It was a great time to be alive.
Our Barracks/Dorm in Germany in 79-82 had an amazing about of audio gear all the young airmen were buying. Me, being a young married airman couldn't afford as much, even at those great BX prices. I did settle for an SA-600 receiver with SLD-3 turntable. Rounded it out with some pioneer speakers and TEAC Cassette and Reel to Reel decks. I still have the SA-600 and SLD-3
How come the army px had so much audio equipment ?
@@jacknjill3000 Seems it was only the over seas PX/BX that carried an awful lot of it.
I have SX5590 that I purchased in Okinawa as a Marine in 1978. Doing a recap right now. Love this thing.
I bought one of those on eBay for $160 and did a full restoration on it and then my mom sold it for $500 with mint kg 4 speakers without me knowing. Now it's worth like 1800. 😢
I bought a Technics SA-1000 back in the 90s from a thrift store in Tampa Florida for $75. Very heavy two of us carried the monster out the store. Sounded awesome hooked up to two sets of speakers and lasted me at least a year before it blew. I didn't know at the time of purchase I was buying the worlds most powerful receiver until soon after when I looked up the info.
That guy definitely found the collection of a lifetime.
You never fail to show something I've never seen before (scopes) . I was around during the receiver wars & thought I saw it all. Good job!
Thanks Mr George!
"Over Priced?" You mean like all the vintage electronics "you" sell? lol
True, but I must add, that already 4 years ago, Innovative Audio in Surrey BC already 'asked' $7000 CAD for one of these Technics SA-1000's. And it did actually sold for stil the insane amount of $4000 CAD cash. Note in that same period mint Sansui 9090's sold in vintage audio retail in BC Canada were i lived with warranty for around $1000 to $1200 CAD, mint Pioneer SX- 1280 pioneers for $1500 CAD retail ex 'VAT'. A Marantz 2500 was already mint with warranty as $2700 CAD, and so on and so on. I lived from Jan. 2017 till august 2022 in Vancouver BC...
i just sold off my mint condition SX-1980... done with vintage gear... i moved on to putting my money into Mcintosh monoblocks... far more power, dynamics and resolution for the money... also will hold its value...
I did the same using Yoshimoto EAR 549’s x 4 power amps, but l couldn’t afford the upkeep, like 5 years ago it cost £1,500.00 to get them upto 100% working ☹️ So l sold them ☹️ Worse decision in my life ☹️
Mcintosh is definitely something else. Good choice.
So awesome you have taken the time to put these videos out there and to have a beautiful vintage stereo shop. Nostalgia at its best. I gotta make this trip from Pittsburgh to the store😊
You should definitely make the trip!
I can attest to that. I've been to the store. Cool place!@@JustAudioHiFi
May be rare, but how does it sound? Anything with a tuner in it is going to get RF, and that means noise. You could get a lot for $15K that sounds phenomenal. I was into vintage in the past and although nice and well made sonics were not the main focus. My Rotel RC 5000 preamp didn't even compete with the Luxman C 05 preamp I had as well at the same time.
Hi there! You are an effective communicator that tells a story in a fun and concise way!!! Thank you, good sir!!!
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Do you work for them...?
@@PulledPorkGarage Nope. I just like what he does. I live in North Carolina, and Like his approach to Vintage Stereo equipment.
Oh man, I love this old vintage gear... Especially the lesser known, the rare ones and sleepers are awesome. Love the look of the audio like the scope receiver with the round dials.
And still there are things to be discovered that are so rare that there isn't almost anything on the net about. Like a JVC Nivico MSL-8E-1 Solid State system combining a tuner, record player and amp set-up. No info whatsoever. Or a rare receiver from Germany, a Kirksaeter RTX-85-55.
Love to find and save these mostly unwanted pieces that otherwise end up at a landfill !
Thank you for making these vids and sharing the cool gear!
Yeah and it’s finally being treated by a few like vintage cars. But the danger with vintage audio is that they are small and not as costly as vintage cars. Meaning you can buy and buy and not know when to stop. Lol!
Great watch this morning Lenny! One of your best videos yet.
Thanks man!
Love the videos, channel, the website, id be hoping to purchase from your site next year, God willing. Your love and knowledge of these ⚙️ is always rewarding. Greetings from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Props for that big beard, wanted to try it but can't 😢
I have Harman Kardon Citation "the Receiver", it is priceless in my eyes
Oh yeah, the original Festival
Thats a sweet piece, one of these days I'll start restoring mine. Thanks for sharing!
@@JustAudioHiFi yes ! I would really like a video on this device, it is incredible but I see very few things on the web
Definitely gonna be a fun one
Thanks ❤
I used to sell hi-fi . . . back in the 80's and 90's . . . your store is awesome.
Very much appreciated!
When i was a kid I use to love to walk into radio shack and look at the Realistic Receivers....
The marvelous miraculous research of making these musical sound blasting two channels stereo pleasant sound DECKS.
Hey there, that’s my SA-1000 listing thanks for featuring it in the video. The size of the estate that I bought was absolutely nuts, I still have piles and piles of stuff. The find of a lifetime for sure. Also how you worded some of the back and forth offers isn’t accurate and confusing at best. The price hasn’t been lowered like you said. I sent out an offer to everyone. I understand it’s just shock value stuff for your CZcams channel though
Haha thanks hopefully this helps sell it! I linked it in the description. If you never find a buyer, my offers always good. I was curious if you'd see this. Good stuff, all in entertainment! I'll keep looking too and more ebay videos coming, I'm sure.
8000 or 15000 uhhhh
Talk about greedy
15k for a Technics.... hard pass! I really don't know what you've been smoking, but your prices are ridiculous
I bought an SA-600 and SLD-3 turntable back in the late 70's early 80's. I don't use them anymore as the receiver needs some work, but I still have them.
Great video. I love my ST-70!
Love video content like this . Some people have money to burn to spend 15K on a 50 year old receiver, but I'm not one of them. LOL
When you're finished it would be cool to know how you restored that early 70s Pioneer sign. What an awesome piece!
Still haven't figured it out!
Great as always
Thanks again!
Growing up, I wanted a Pioneer SX-1250 and JBL Century L100s.
Super duper nice 👍👍
Resevers
9:25 I own that same sign... bought it locally here in Toronto Canada from a closed Oshawa stereo.
Bro I’ve subbed because of your down to earth knowledge about a product which is now history to 1,000,000’s!
Bloody brilliant mate n very enjoyable with me cornflakes 🇬🇧
?
Thanks, John! I'm glad you are having fun and enjoying the entertainment!
@@PulledPorkGarage Hey P.P. Not sure if it’s the millions your ?? refers to, but I’m talking about the Millennials and Gen Z’s. I say this from actual experience of the said generations, some 30 years old looking at my 70’s equipment like it’s from Mars 🤣
Good old days. I bought my Dual turntable at the Stereo Discounters show on Aylesbury Rd. They had a display set up with the turntable hanging upside down bouncing on springs paying a record.
Lenny gets me hooked on great audio. Lenny hooked me on getting a Pioneer SX-1980 by showing his pristine store listening room version. Lenny got me hooked on the deep rich booming Pioneer HPM-100 speakers. Now I have two pairs of Pioneer HP-100 speakers and I'm hunting down 3 more pairs of these speakers. I have a Sansui D-9000 in Just Audio Service for upgrades and refurbishment. Just Audio Tech's will do their usual great job. I hope Lenny still has the sweet turntable he showed me because in 2024 I'm buying if my health improves. Right now my doctors & brothers have me on bed rest lockdown. BUT I'm in bed rocking with my Pioneer SX-1980, RT-707 Tape Deck and Pioneer HPM-100 speakers.
Wolf, I hope you feel better! We can't wait to see you soon!
Скажите пожалуйста ,какая фамилия есть у Lenny ?
@@user-sm7kw9dq1y Я знаю его просто как Ленни. Он хороший человек, который любит винтажный звук. Мы разделяем этот интерес.
@canislupus So in a word you’re fast becoming an addict like poor Lenny is🤣👍
@@johneaton25 Hello my name is WOLF and I am a Vintage Audio Addict. You are so right. There I've said it! 👍🤣
Lo...Every time I watch your videos, my stomach feels like there's something flipping inside. I've purged a lot of equipment on Craig's from 2015-18. I live in the DMV and sooner or later, plan to check out your store. I'm a collector and will be in contact soon, to see if you are interested in taking some things off my hand's. Shutting down one of two units I've had for 9 years. Tag at that time on Craig's was Vintage/Clearance/. Keep up the great work.
i am not sure where the cutoff is for paypal to become suspicious of the transaction so i would suggest just to only pay less than $200.
above a certain point paypal may decide to hold the money or block the transaction or what ever.
i know as a new user until you get your bank account verified it is like $200 for the cutoff that you can charge to credit cards.
another thing you could do is snipe sit refreshing the page and place the bid within the last few seconds of the auction.
you could make a pioneer dealer turntable because the only differences is just it is in a plastic box with mirror and some feature labeling.
there is a thing called bid shielding where the seller would have others who would bid to protect the bid amounts.
i imagine there is a thing called offer shielding where there would be others offering to protect the offer amounts.
it is all part of the thing called shilling.
you may need to replace some of the parts in the kit because many of the capacitors may be dried out and could fail.
For the money that guy's asking, I'd literally get myself on the first plane to Japan, bring back a bunch of the cool stuff we never got over here, and enjoy a nice vacation while I'm at it.
Is he a collector, a real store or just ebay, youtube or that all together at the same time!? Course asking price is not actual sales price. I got all vintage gear i need or want, but why do they run a store and chasing away / 'humiliating' potential buyers with ' look what i got', you can't afford it anyways. Even ebay etsy Sotheby's and Reverb are a fifth or 10 times or 30 times cheaper in case of same vintage component in comparable conditions...! I'm like you just wondering..?
@@PulledPorkGarageEbay always have inflated prices anyway and paying that much for a receiver and à technics one of all brands is a bit absurd I agree with you. It's maybe for the shock value on CZcams. Or maybe it's for collection. But rare don't always mean "good" 15k for a receiver is insane. But 15k for à technics receiver is something I can't comprehend. I'm as baffled as you are.
That's nothing, there's a Nak 1000ZXL limited listed right now for $35k. I restore old tape decks, and I just laugh at obscene prices like that. Granted Nak has never been my brand anyway, but there's no tape deck on earth I'm paying that kind of money for. That being said, if someone wants them that bad, who am I to argue? I'm just glad I got my childhood dream deck (Teac V-900X) for dirt cheap by comparison.
To be fair and accurate I do have to add this: True, but I must add, that already 4 years ago, Innovative Audio in Surrey BC already 'asked' $7000 CAD for one of these Technics SA-1000's. And it did actually sold for stil the insane amount of $4000 CAD cash.

Pioneer quadro 8000, good resiver?
Quick question. My parents have a yorx m2678, can you advise on what kind of replacement record needle I need and how to replace it??
You guys really should have gave a shout out to Matt for using his SD-1000 lol
Thanks to Matt!
I've have a late 1970's AKAI AA 1150 AM/FM Receiver..... had it serviced locally, an absolutely astounding warm/clear sound ?
I'm obviously somewhat biased here ?.... but I'd assert the AKAI stuff was/is grossly overlooked and under rated ?
I still have the technics pamphlet catalogs which I grabbed from Milwaukee stereo stores in 79 -80 -‘81
Oh very cool!!
You have a Marantz 2010?
Best video 👍
I have a pristine SA-800. Original owner. Its truly a monster
Ive heard the SX-1980 is more powerful despite the lower rating. The Pioneer is insanely conservative in its output power rating. Ive never tested it myself, but just about every thread i ever read said this was the case.
The Pioneer is a way better build, but does have it's flaws as well
@@JustAudioHiFi im still out for the Marantz 4400, 2330, and someday a 2600… after that im done (so i say now)
such overhype ! 🤩
Hey. Just wanted to let you know that Vintage Audio Exchange has a Technics Receiver - Model SA-1000A. Price $8,500.00.
I was a store manager of Music & Sound in Va Beach in the 70's. We sold the SA 1000 and I had one until I moved overseas in 1983. Shame I didn't keep it.
Dang!
@tihzho I was born and currently live in VB. I was wondering where this store was located and what brands u carried. Also how long did this store last?
@@allenwilliams8962 There were three Music & Sound stores
The one I worked at was on the corner of Va Beach Blvd and Independence - used to be a gas station.
Another store was in a shopping center on Laskin rd. behind Bojangles
The main store was in Norfolk, I can't remember the address.
Music & Sound sold band equipment and high end audio.
Before I was at RadioShack at Pembroke mall
@@allenwilliams8962 This was in the 70's and I left the US in 83
Love to have nice jvc A-X9 amp if you come across one.
Wow and glad so many ppl. are collecting vintage audio now and some opening vintage stores. I got the bug around 99 and so much was out there in thrift store, antique stores and flea markets, that reminds me and last time went to the flea market about 2 years ago, there was a monster Pioneer from like the early 70’s or late 60’s going for cheap but didn’t pick up.
As much as I love the fact more ppl. are getting into it, things are going to dry up and make them go up in price. Imagine about 50 to 70% of these units got tossed or ended up in thrift store for the last 50 years and the ones for sale are the survivors. There should still be plenty out and about bc this interest only come back to a small group of the population , but soon it’ll be like buying vintage cars. So grab the ho end model receiver before they get super expensive.
Wow and cool store you got there! When are they going to have a cable show on just vintage hi fi like they had with shows like storage wars or pawn stars? Love you’re going for vintage hi fi sign.
Wow and you collect the original boxes also. I swear this is getting like when ppl. started collecting vintage toys like 25 years ago.
Yeah and buying from eBay can get addictive and when you receive and open is a great rush.
I remember when I wax buying cool stuff in the mid 90’s, my gf at the time couldn’t understand why I was looking for new things all the time and buying all the time. She even told her mom and her mom said he’s a male shopaholic . Lol! Now seeing guys like you with your constant shopping for vintage audio, this was 28 years ahead. Wow, you were not even born or still very young 28 years ago.
Here's hoping you score that Tech receiver
Cool
8-15 grand for a vintage receiver is insane given their performence and functionality, no idea if the capacitors even work properly either.
It's fun to see how much people pay for this stuff. When I was a kid I was 100% addicted to stereo gear. That was in the early 70's. We had Pacific Stereo, Playback, and the best store of all Musicraft. I spent hours in each weekly. I bought, sold, and traded over 150 stereo systems when i was a kid. It's really odd to see you chasing after Technics anything. When I was in the game in my youth, it was considered bottom of the barrel stuff. Sansui, Marantz, Pioneer, and I think Kenwood were the players back then. Possibly some Sony stuff as well. I was a hard core Pioneer and Sansui guy with receivers. JBL and UTAH (a knock off JBL) were my speakers of choice. L-100's with Blue grills were my go to. Turntables were Dual and later on Sony. Never had a Pioneer TT. I also had a few BIC turntables. Cassette decks were all over the map and I had most of them.I had a Wollensack SP? 8 track which was the cats meow in the day. I miss all that stuff, but I wouldn't pay even close to what you guys are for this stuff. The modern day gear is so much more amazing, and sounds so much better. That's my 2 cents. Cheers
Fred Locke stereo New Haven CT 1200.00 bought 200 then the 500 then the sa 700 didn't make it to the sa-1000 almost lol
Man, I wish I could visit your store. There's certainly nothing like it in all of DFW sadly.
Be sure to come visit us at the Southwest Audio Fest in 2024!
Greed will get you every time. 🙄 I cringe when I think of all the audio gear I lost, gave away, or sent to be recycled because there was no internet, and I just didn't know any better. Who knew! I certainly didn't.
Things always go up in value, I cringe at things I sold in the past and what they go for now, that's life haha
I have every monster receiving made every manufacturer except the Sansui G3300 but do have the G22000 and the my best is the Pioneer Sx1250 and Sx1980
Jealous! You will love our next video on that note
That unicorn It's hard to capture I was wondering about the shops over in Japan I bet you that unicorn techniques 1000 is plentiful over there 🤔
Hoarders like you are ruining the vintage scene. Let me explain:
1. there are many people who want to buy just one component or just one set of vintage components but cant because people like you are grabbing stuff like vultures
2. the prices of these stuff are already bloated and hoarders increase it even more
But I see that you really love this stuff so I'll give you props for that and for these interesting videos. Hope you are not mad because I was harsh. Cheers!
Sx1980 , I'll try again . What do all those buttons do ? I've pushed flipped and twisted all those buttons on my vintages equipment with most not making a diff.
Depends on the buttons, check the manual for details
@@JustAudioHiFi As you know when you buy a used equipment they usually don't come with a manual or box even so your the expert I'm asking you to do a video on the subject please don't be an A$$
$15,000 for a Technics receiver? Yikes!
The free interprize system it's great!!!!!!!!))))))))))
My dad was a veteran and he had most of those receivers collecting dust so I started using it n didn't know what I had n now I feel like I should take it back out because it's a check waiting to happen 😂...R.I.HEAVEN Dad...
I got a sansui g8000 for free with a pair on Bose 601s (series 1), any idea what kind of value I’m looking at?
Restored a G-8000 is over 5k
Just picked up a Harmin Kardon 90+ reciever.
Sweet!
Hi Jason, you may not have the most powerful receiver ever. I consider the most powerful receiver as the Sansui G33000. I may have seen the boxes in your store in a previous video. This is a two piece unit consisting of the receiver and a 300wpc separate power amp 5 inch tall, 20 inch wide 20 inch deep unit below it. This is a rare piece as it was incredibly expensive unit to purchase. If you have this unit today, $50,000 would not be unfair to ask. There was also a similar unit with 200wpc, the G22000. Most people would say the Pioneer SX1980 is a good unit. I was at a hifi repair shop that was fully recapping this unit for a customer. I was not impressed by the output section. It has 4 output transistors per channel for a 270 watt output. These are unique proprietary devices used and designed by Pioneer in their products only. This is a lot of power for four output devices to reasonably handle. Some amplifiers have up to 16 devices per channel for a 200 watt output. This piece is a nice conversation starter. There are ebay adds that owners are looking to get up to $15000 for these units not recapped. Not a good idea for a 45 year old piece of equipment. Thanks again.
I love vintage stereo systems but these astronomical prices are not worth it unless you have that kind of disposable bucks.
Try to build your own speakers with vintage components
As to the last statement in the video; I know the original box jacks up the value, but boxes are entirely overrated. Good sounding audio gear, however, is nearly priceless.
Currently one posted on eBay for 8K obo, restored.
That's the one in the video with broken parts
Dude’s stereos cost more than my cars … when they were new! 🤣🤣
Where did you buy that rack? Link please?
It's original
@@JustAudioHiFi start making them;)
I have a couple of old receivers I could send if you want to try to repair them for a video.
Nostalgia .. heres my take .. its often soft sounding and lacking detail. Better buy a modern amp that sounds better and less hassle .. been there done it , but that was years ago when I got them old vintage stuff cheap.
Kenwood KR-9050
You realize that you could have gotten a much better scope like a Tektronix for way less that does more, including 4 channel ones.
You keep saying the techniques is the largest receiver don’t forget the Samsun G 3300 is a whopping 300 watts rated very conservative as well as a 2 price unit we all know how good the 9000 is have one along with 1050 pioneer and 4300 Marantz but the Samsun is just beyond these when hooked up to commercial junk pa speakers rated up to 2000 watts I can only imagine the 3300 this is not taking anything away from techniques I just think with Samsun rep it’s got to be right there
iam search for a technics rs tr979 tape deck
Probably toxic, but someone should can and sell the smell these old receivers made when new and warm. I can still remember it emanating from a big new Pioneer my father brought home in the late 70's. The sweet bouquet filled the living room.
Remember I believe you said Technics and Kenwood are empty boxes!
That wasn't me
Sorry for that , I do subscribe to multiple sites.
I really felt that was a bit to far though.
Yes Kenwood was more “affordable “ but I had heard they really made the best tuners. Was that you?
There are makers of new Dynaco kits out there for way less and with better sounding driver circuits, and oh, they don't need the now extremely extinct 7199 tube.
Prices for vintage gear is getting out of hand. I mean seriously, a pioneer oscilloscope sells for $7k?? Are people out of their minds?
absolutely strange I'm from Canada I see these constantly on Canadian eBay and on marketplaces here in Canada the cheapest one I found was $80 of course it had a bit of problems the most expensive one I found was around $900 American so roughly $1,200 Canadian has the antenna and has the speaker protector that you are talking about and is in much better condition than the one you found however it does not come with a box for that price I can have 20 boxes printed out by a company that makes boxes I don't understand you Americans buying stuff at those prices you can buy half of that stuff in Canada so cheap that this would be your favorite shopping place for stereo equipment
The sad thing about these collections is that once the collector dies, there likely won’t be any survivors that will care about the equipment and rush to sell it for whatever they can quickly get. That is good news for the people that get good deals, but for those beneficiaries of the collector, they don’t get as much benefit as if they were just left the money. I think there is a point where the audiophile addiction becomes economically damaging. But, it’s people’s money . . . .
I thought the SA-1000 was only a prototype. Huh interesting.
I have both and the Pioneer is much better build and the sound is more musical. My sa 1000 was purchased for $7000 and is like new and complete and would never spend $8,000 for the box
Are you a collector, a store or just ebay, youtube or that all together at the same time!? Course asking price is not actual sales price. I got all vintage gear i need or want, but why do you run a store and chazing away potential buyers with ' look what i got', you can't afford it anyways. Even ebay etsy Sotheby's and Reverb are a fifth or 10 times or 30 times cheaper in case of same vintage component in comparable conditions...! I'm just wondering..?
I actually do like the SD-1000 better lmfao
Yeah I'm happy with it for sure
Technics.
There’s no such audio brand as Techniques.
I paid $100.00 Cdn for my 5770.The shop recapped it B4 I bought it 15 yrs ago. 😂😅🎉
Where the hell you get all the money to do this??
Drugs, crime most likely. Something sus about this dude....
I bought mine for 15 euros. 18 months ago
Glad to hear you lost out. Bye:)
HIS SOUL IS OWNED BY AI

There are way too ,many GREEDY sellers on ebay. It's all over folks.
Ebay does take 20% so keep that in mind. I price everything higher on there to encourage people to shop direct
Not buy it for it sound and reliability because I have one it's way over priced and I'm not impressed.
I have a Technics SA700 and SA800. I love them. but the prices of this old used stuff is RIDICULOUS. I WOULD NOT pay hundreds for the old gear. Instead I would spend $350 and buy a Yamaha S-301 amplifier and have quality, brand new gear. selling old stuff for outrageous sums of money is a scam. hundreds for something electronic thats 40 years old ? no.
Video is all over the place work on your presentation and the Overy hyper vibes are off-putting
Don't do it !!!!!!! Not worth the money . You can get better sounding components for a cheaper price .
Good advice!
Let's buy modern gear made in China that can never be repaired and once a PCB goes out in 3 years it is discarded to the trash.
It's not really about the sound. It's about the history, rarity, and the power of the Technics unit.
Who asks for 14,999.99$. Why not just say 15,000. The stupidity level is right up there with daylight savings time.
after watching your video I decided to Watchlist the SA-1000 and nearly immediately got this offer today at 12:45 pm EDT
