Hi, I've got the chance to buy a Pioneer PD-73 for half price (reduced from 800 to 400 pounds). I've had a listen to it and it sounds pretty impressive, but I haven't been able to find any test reports about it. Anyone know anything about the PD-73 ? Would you snap one up if it were � price ? Thanks, Dave

re .0....
Why so cheap? End-of-line or something like that?
>>Would you snap one up if it were � price ?
Not until I'd heard what else was available for �400, in my system or
one like it.
And lack of test reports/reviews isn't an issue, they can be a
hindrance. Your ears count most.

Dave,
Telephone Pioneer (don't have their number, but their address is
in Greenford Middx) and ask for some literature on the PD-73, if
there are any *Good* reviews in existence you can be sure they'll also
include a photocopy. The lesser models PD7700/8700/9700 are very well
received in the hi-fi comics and i listened to the 8700 together with
a Rotel RCD965-BX and was most impressed (I did end up with the Rotel
though @�299!).
