The 8200, but give it a bloody good bath!

8200 looks best but if Pioneer wasnt so bad shape it would be maybe tied choice .
8200 looks like will have louder sound.
judging from design of woofer the pioneer woofers look like older design = less bass but still a more quality looking box.

iv'e owned the 8200 and it's a decent box, but i suspect the pioneer has superior sound try and get both if you can, but like Lee says, give em a good bath

best of luck Mr Vu

don't let them woofers on the pioneer kid ya Maxx, that hitachi does'nt sound anything special.

i bet the pioneer kills it on sound, remember it's a pioneer

pioneer the rest are rubbish mr vu

samovar - 2012-11-14 05:57

the pioneer, no doubt. if you don't like it you can always resell it to me

northerner - 2012-11-14 06:44

I'd be buying the 8200 as the pioneer looks trashed!

Yeah. The pioneer, is no good, without the speaker covers. Took mine off the sk95. Not for long though. They were soon back on. The deck on these things, is an absolute pain to fix.

think the pioneer has the covers Rich, look at the first pic of it, think they was taken off just to show the woofers

litfan - 2012-11-14 08:17

Yeah. Cheers lav, i realized, after i posted. Very weird attachment method, on these covers.

bison - 2012-11-14 08:19

no probs mate, not a big fan of cloth covers tbh, once they've torn there's not much you can do apart from ditch em

Go for the Pioneer SK-95. 

 

Just take it for its LED VU meter, if it is working. SK-95 has got one of the best LED VU meters ever seen. 12 segments dancing so smoothly and perfectly with music. And they didn't make a big display like others by fitting 5 LEDs, 1 inch apart from each other. 12 x 2 LEDs stacked, touching each other.

 

And SK-95 has a SWEETER sound than a Panasonic RX-7000 or Sharp GF-777.

 

Don't bother about the condition of cassette deck. Even if it is working today, it will stop sooner or later, head will clog every half an hour and so on. If Line-In is working you can hear as well as "SEE" the music even from a mobile phone MP3 player.

 

What is that JBL logo on the left side? Is it co-branded (fitted with JBL speaker) or only a sticker? 

aestereo - 2012-11-14 09:49

Just forgot to add, yet another unique feature of SK-95.

Is the Radio tuning dial working?. SK-95 has an amazing Tuning dial as seen below. (Video not posted by me.)

Pionner is a beautiful box!

maxx134 - 2012-11-14 10:36
