[Pro-Serviced] Pioneer SG-9500 Graphic Equalizer Recapped Fast For Sale

Up for sale is a fully restored Pioneer SG-9500 Graphic Equalizer.

Unlike sellers who may just spray some Deoxit or replace a cap or two and call it "serviced", this unit has undergone a complete, professional restoration to ensure long-term reliability and performance.

Upon arrival, the unit undergoes a complete diagnostic evaluation using state-of-the-art test equipment. From there:

• Every electrolytic capacitor (including main filter caps) is replaced with a modern, equal or higher voltage equivalent using only top-quality brands: Nichicon, Kemet, or Panasonic. No sketchy /Amazon caps in here.
• All small signal transistors are replaced with modern equivalents as a matter of good practice - especially known problem-prone transistors (such as 2SA1312, 2SA726, etc.)
• Every solder joint is visually inspected under magnification.
• All switches, faders, and contacts are meticulously hand-cleaned (no "spray and twist")with premium cleaners, audio-grade lubricant,and lint-free swabs.
• All RCA jacks are hand-polished for optimal signal transfer.
• The faceplate and knobs are cleaned and polished.
• Test signals are passed through inputs and outputs, and the resulting waveforms are analyzed with an precision test equipment to verify performance.

"The best purchase I have ever made on ! Seller Clash City Audio is a prime example of a superb member, with very well described & photographed listing of a 50 year old amplifier FULLY restored to like new performance.
