Hehe!
Had Marco not promised the review, you guys would not have moaned about the forever wait. Probably he is still in a very bad mood after his beloved Techy defeated by the awesome Kenwood L-07D.
I can imagine that he is selling the Technics and trying to get himself a Kenwood soon.

Eh, Davey boy?

Wait a minute……a P2?
No, you should get its bigger brother the P3, the one in the Pioneer Exclusive series. You will regain your pride and joy with this almighty P3 or, better still, the P3a and show the people its superiority over all the others, including the L-07D.

Marco, it's a PLANAR 2 you need to upgrade to, not the P2, a very different animal IMO...
You think I'm joking?????????
