    Did you buy your TT with PA-5000 or acquire it later?

    Default Unexpected addition to my collection

    A friend of mine surprised me today with this gift - Pioneer SA-500 (amp) and TX-600 (tuner). I have a suitable deck for this duo - a Pioneer CT-F750. Maybe my Technics SB-5000 speakers and SL-23a TT will join the group.

    I absolutely love that era of Pioneer kit, looks damn good! The switches and knobage always felt right, and sound is great as well. Nice gift for sure! Enjoy!

    Thank you, Timothy! Yes, these vintage Pioneers catch the eyes. I have 14 pieces of this silver and 2 in black. Some of them stored away due to the lack of space.
