Why This One?
The SX-1000TW is a great example of Pioneer's early solid-state receivers and has a fantastic vintage look that stands apart from the later SX-series models.

This particular example is even more unique thanks to the Santos Rosewood cabinet, refreshed LED lighting, and upgraded banana speaker terminals. It's a great combination of classic Pioneer styling with a few carefully chosen updates that make it easier to enjoy in a modern system.

Condition
Very nice vintage condition with excellent overall presentation. The new Santos Rosewood veneer is the centerpiece of this receiver, with beautiful natural grain and a custom appearance you won't find on a typical SX-1000TW.

The controls operate smoothly, the lighting looks fantastic, and most importantly, this receiver sounds amazing.

A unique vintage Pioneer that's been serviced, upgraded, and is ready for its new owner.
