Presenting TOTL LX-880 w. pictures

pqrannes

Tubes warm your heart too
A while back I promised myself and everyone else here at AK that I one day would present the LX-880 Pioneer receiver that I've had for a few years now.

One day is to day!

Not much info is to be found on the web about this early SS Pioneer TOTL receiver, so in order to secure that pictures are to found somewhere I took some photos, put them on the web and will add the photos to this post.

I have the OM/SM that I scanned some month ago and it is now available at the Pioneer database server here in the Pioneer section of AK.

I haven't use the LX-880 much but from what I've noticed the sound of it is a bit warmer than eg. a SX-550 sitting next to it at a shelf here.

As you can see from the pictures it is in very good condition and apparently in fully working order.

Wow! You'll never see something like that in the states (literally)

Absolutely great looking piece of pioneer history.
 
Hej Peter,

Fra Thule eller Sdr.Strømfjord, måske?

Must be a US-Model with the 110V AC outlets on the back.
Was probably sold in an AirForce BX somewhere in Greenland, Iceland or Germany.
Gimme a yell if you want to part with it some day :thmbsp:

Guess you're right about that. I know for sure that a pair of Sansui Sp-2500 speakers, I use to have, and a pair of kabuki Pioneer speaker still sitting around came to Denmark via US airbases on Greenland. But a lot of my other stuff (esp. 110 V stuff) might have reached Denmark the way(s) you suggest!
