Housecleaning continues.....

Sansui TU-417 Modded - $100

Fisher FM-100C - $100

Fisher FM-50 - $60

Pioneer TX-6500 $40

Just posting to see if there are any takers at these prices, before they are off to ebay. All in working order, cosmetics are 8/10 on each, clean facias, other minor marking elsewhere. All prices include lower 48 shipping.

Cheers,
Russ

Russ, I'll take the Pioneer. It is the silver face like this one?

Matched filters, modern caps, better voltage regulators, newer opamps... the sky's the limit really. See www.radioxtuners.com for a description of what can be done to vintage tuners to make them better than new. RadioX is PunkerX at AK, and also my brother, so I can't say "no affiliation".

Damn! Small world we live in! I like reading some of your brother's posts. I've got a nice vintage Marantz 150, not the 10b but nice. One of these days I'd like to have the Marantz 7C, 8 and 10 combo. I just don't have $5 to 10K laying around:(

That Pioneer is a cool looking tuner. You have any other pics Russ, just wondering what they look like and I'm lazy.

What mods were done on the Sansui? Also is it AM/FM?
Thanks, Phil
