that's cool! I am wanting to get the SX-737. I'm gonna offer $65 I think. he/she wants $100 for it. These Pioneer's are cool looking. The ones with the black faces like the SX-737 look incredible with blue LED's. 

I'm more of a yellow-light fan, but I may have to transition this unit to green bulbs to match the CD player. One of the bulbs is also out, so I need to replace at least one anyways.

Got an SX-780 for -$20 today. You read that right. I was paid $20 to obtain this. It has very little use from new, and other than some dust it's basically brand-new inside. So far, I'm liking what I'm hearing. Let's just hope it doesn't explode like my ST-120 did.
 

 
Congrats man. Hows it sound?

It's a little warmer than what I'm used to with the modern equipment that I have, but it doesn't lose much detail at all to add warmth. It's a sound signature that I can really get into. I'll have to try it out with some higher-impedance cans than I'm using at the moment to get a real feel for what it can do, though. The volume knob has barely gone past seven-thirty with the MDs.
 
As long as this unit holds up and doesn't have any problems right away, I don't think I'll have my PAT-4 for long.

Glad you like it.
 
I don't really consider my 750 to be warm, but since my last amp was just a Fiio E17, I could be wrong. I had already noticed more detail in the music from the 750, even when I was still using the E17 as a DAC only. Now with the ODAC, detail retrieval is a definite non issue. I just got a big promotion at work today, so maybe an HD800 is in my future.

My background was in studio-environment equipment when I first got a few DACs, so we probably have different perspectives of warmth.

Very possible...

congrats on the promo, jasonb 

 now i know who to sell my future gears to

If I do get an HD800, it won't be for at least a few months. Maybe it'll be a christmas gift to myself. It does seem to be the next logical step if I want a better version of the AKG Q701 though. I do love my Q701, so we will see.

Do you have an HD800 that you are expecting to sell eventually?

No, I don't actually. But your rapid rise at work places you

 in my target market. In mid-to-late September, I have the Stax SR-009/WEE combo coming in and I'm looking forward to seeing what I'll get when paired to either my Sansui or Pioneer. To be clear, I got the Stax for my vintage vacuum tube amps. But, I might as well play around 

and experiment with 'em!

Your unit will probably look stellar with either!

Hi guys. Anyone here familiar with the Sherwood RX-4109? I just bought it for $27 on ebay to be my replacement headphone amp.
