Up for grabs tonight is the former front end of my home theater setup. The Pioneer Elite SC-37 is a BEAST and would not be leaving my setup had I not upgraded to the SC-65. This one is in "as new" condition and comes with the owner's manual, remote, set-up mic, am and fm antennas...

There is not a single mark on it. anywhere, and tonight I even popped the top and dusted the internals. It looks nothing like any amp I have ever seen internally, actually more like a computer in most respects except for the massive power supply. No disappointments here guys. If you have been wanting to step up your game in HT, look no further.
Specs can be found here..

Asking 595.00 shipped anywhere in the 48...

    I might take this off your hands. I've got a colleague who is building a HT setup, and this would be perfect for him. Let me hit him up when he gets out of a meeting at 4 and I'll confirm.

    John- you might want to PM and pester Enders about it. I know he's looking to move up to a more recent model, but at that price he might just be able to talk the accountant into it. :)

    Why do want to go and post this right after I just bought an 05???

    Looks like this might be sold, but if the "nibbles" don't turn into a catch let me know.

    Well, I bought the 05 and sold it to you after a 25 came along. Its only right that you step up and buy this and sell the 25! Too funny! Crazy vicious circle...What so screwed up about the sickness is that I was salivating over this 37 for a second.

    nooshinjohn, what features swayed you to the 65?


    The 25 will do me just fine for awhile....I'm out! On to finding some decent speaker wire and an AC plug.....

    What a great deal on this fantastic unit!

    I wish I had the money to get it myself as I'll be looking for a nice Pioneer Elite in the future for a home theater set up for my Panasonic 60ST60 TV.

    Unfortunately I don't have the money now or I'd grab this in a minute.

    I hope someone steps up quick and grabs this soon!

    GLWTS.

    While I appreciate your thoughts on my intelligence, It's a matter of not having the money unfortunately.

    Why would you even post that?

    Do me a favor and stop trashing my thread please. I never sent you any such pm, and even if the buyer DID back out, I would rather donate it to Goodwill than sell it to you. I have zero time for the drama that is selling or buying anything from anyone known as PFB.

    The one thing I love about the SC-37 is it's the last of the great Urushi Finish. Everything made afterwords now has a Black Aluminum look to it. Yeah it's nice and all but I'd much prefer Pioneer Elite go back to this look. It's what started it all and I would like to to continue.
    it's the one thing I don't like about my SC-68
