FS: Pioneer Spec-2 for Parts.

I have a Spec-2 that was functional when parked in the turn of the millennium. I do have replacement primary filter caps for it from Newark. Unfortunately, I see that the old caps leaked (literally) and the PCB traces are corroded. I’m offering it for parts. It’s likely got good: transformer(s), temp compensation diodes (way obsolete), finals, drivers, sheet metal and knobs.
if you can actually use it, drop me a reply. I’m quite flexible on terms. I am capable of completely reviving it. I just don’t have the time to put into it. I’m not as young as I once was.
 
Not surprisingly, I have gotten several responses already. Surprisingly, the first response came from someone who has their dad’s Spec-2. It was damaged in a fire. He’s been hoping for a parts unit ever since. Sometimes things just work out.
to the others who have responded, I will contact you (in order) if this falls through. However, it’s looking like some stars aligned for this one. Way cool.
I’m getting older, and my list of projects is virtually infinite. I will undoubtedly post some more cool stuff in future days.
Sorry, the Onkyo and the V-FET stuff goes to the grave with me. That, or my son might take it home from the service. 🤣
