    This was like my first high-quality receiver. I bought it new. There were 2 models. I couldn't afford the higher priced one since I bought a cassette deck and TT too. I think it was this model.

    Now, I don't know if you agree or not, but I find this vintage receiver rather cool looking.

    Those were European only versions.
    It is my understanding that these blackface Pioneer versions were only available to U.S. military personnel serving in Europe. The SX-5570 shown here is the equivalent of the domestic SX-950 (85 watts per channel into 8Ω stereo). Its big brothers are the SX-5580 equivalent to the SX-1050 (120 watts per channel) and the SX-5590 equivalent to the SX-1250 (165 watts per channel). I want one of each.

    They were available to anyone in Europe and Japan including those in the US military. Many who brought them back home.

    I never saw them in Japan. The only people I knew who had them bought them in Germany.
