This is a 1979 vintage Pioneer SX-3900 receiver rated at 120wpc into 8 ohms. Features include both digital and analogue tuner display, blue florouscan power meters, two phono and tape inputs, turnover adjustments for bass and treble, muting, tape copy, etc. It also has removable jumpers to seperate the amp/preamp. This was pioneer's top of the line receiver in 1979! Cosmetics are 8 out of ten. The veneer has started pulling away slightly at the bottom of the left and right side panels about an eighth inch. There is also 1 small chip on the faceplate, other than that, very nice, all lights and controls work well. I'd like to get a fair price so $125 including shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states. I'm also open to any trades for interesting audio related items, especially blank 7" reel tape. Thanks for looking!

    My uncle has the exact same receiver, and it's still functioning flawlessly. Very nice amp & tuner sections in that receiver, and it has the classic look to it too.
