I've no idea how the Pioneer SX-1250, SX-1280 and SX-1980 sound until I watch the videos of this ad of the SX-1980 in the local forum today. This is high end sound to my ears. Superb clarity and sound really good.

I think most of us Pioneer fans would agree!
I enjoyed a Pioneer SX690 for about a year before she petered out probably caps. I was totally impressed with this “smaller” unit. Sounded better than the same vintage Yamaha model which was bigger and heavier.
The SX690 wattage ratings seemed conservative - for what she could do. Probably not too difficult, but I don’t have time to refurb her, so she’s on Craigslist now.
