Thanks guys :) I remembered that you liked Pioneers Brutus. My holy grail is still the Sk-95, but still didn't manage to get one. I like the SK-31 too because of it looks. Don't have that one either. Pioneers are a bit hard to get here. My daily driver is an SK-757, still from the times when they sold them nib in Spain.

RR maybe you just did the right thing by selling most of the boxes. It's kind of a burden to have too many ;)

It looks a bit calm here? Is everybody to facebook? Or is there no interest in bbx anymore?

I lusted after the Pioneer SK for years as a teen and was fortunate enough (with some help from the guys here) to find my first SK-95 and then a year later another which I use as a parts "back up" box but it still works so I've left it alone.

I have noticed it's very quiet around here but I'm hopeful it's because its the summer and more members are vacationing, but I do find many of the old members have gone AWOL so maybe we're a hobby that dies out as we age on? I'm not on Facebook so I can't speak for that but I do know my kids laugh at my wife for staying on Facebook. Apparently it's the "old persons social media" now. lol

I have an SK-95, actually for sale. Are the grills supposed to just pull off. Tried to remove mine but didn't want to damage it. Seemed pretty snug.

Yes the grills do just pull off but they need a bit of persuasion :)

DSCN0172.JPG the pioneer sa9800 took me `15 years to get geoff due to insane prices, its a dual mono amp unlike the 2 8800 i have.....bought her way cheaper as she had no knobs and the wooden case was all beat up lad, changed it for a normal black metal one, they look way way better in the flesh........last pic from me as not to hijack mikes wonderful thread
