ü Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü We have completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts. Extensive cleaning of unit internally.

ü 'Tuning' meter had a magnet weld that had failed rendering it inoperative. Tech disassembled and repaired meter and now operates properly. Both meters reinstalled

ü Repaired bent AM toggle switch shaft

ü Switches / Selectors (rotary, toggle and slide) were also flooded with cleaner.

ü We also aligned the tuner front-end on both AM & FM bands for optimum performance as older tuner components will have 'drifted' over the years.

ü AM 'Stick' ferrite antenna ball and socket inspected for cracks / chips and none found.

ü Tuner string checked for any fraying then re-tensioned to increase traction & relieve flywheel binding and re-centered pointer to correct dial position to agree with slide rule scale and tuning capacitor.

ü Dial lamps functioning, and due to a low current draw (do not run particularly 'hot') should last a long time (meters do not have illumination by design)

ü Replaced 2x meter lamps (8V / .25A)

 
ü No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent!

ü All functions test fine.

 
ü FM reception also incredible and IMPECCABLY CLEAN!!! AM is fairly typical for a stereo tuner (not typically a 'strong suite' for stereo tuners, and this one is no exception).

 
ü Following electro / mechanical work, unit was fully detailed cosmetically, inside and out.

 
ü No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Cosmetics in excellent condition. Following 10.5 hours of restoration procedures, the unit was ran continuously for 48 hours.

ü  On our test bench AC Idle current at .1A, & floor noise -48dB

Very impressive and classy looking Pioneer TX-9100, AM/FM Stereo tuner with performance to match. Handsome, 'Blue-Face' with a 'smoked' plexi dial glass. This tuner 'sounds' INCREDIBLE!!! One of the best tuners we have ever had. Very 'phat' sonics, with incredible presence and depth. A/B testing with this tuner was an 'eye opener' for us, and we've heard a lot of gear. From the original Pioneer TX-9100 tuner's owners manual;
"The FM MPX Decoder uses the design principle of the 'phase lock loop' applied in it's circuitry. It has no inductances or capacitances which can cause phase shifts and distortions. This functions by any phase dislocation that might occur is automatically detected and compensated by a loop circuit. This results in an unprecedented high degree of stability irrespective of temperature or humidity changes. FM stereo channel separation always remains sharp and clear-cut throughout the audio frequency range."
This tuner is very well built, with internal shielding on EVERYTHING!
VERY impressive specs as well!

Pioneer TX-9100 AM/FM Stereo Tuner Features:

- Internal shielding on EVERYTHING (see photo above)
- Weighted flywheel "slide rule" analog tuning
- 'Fully shielded' 8-gang tuner
- Analog tuning Meter
- Analog Signal Strength Meter
- Stereo indicator lamp
  - Dual Level FM Muting (separate from Stereo / Mono selector)
- Separate Variable Output Level controls for AM and FM
  - Stereo 'Auto' / Mono selector (separate from FM muting selector)
- Pulse noise filter to filter extraneous noise from passing cars, shavers, blow dryers, etc.
- De-featable MPX filter
- RCA outputs for FM Multipath Vertical / Horizontal to connect to an Oscilloscope or to the Pioneer SD-1100 'display unit'. VERY handy to determine best antenna placement / orientation
- RCA outputs for both 'Fixed' and 'Variable' levels ('Fixed' level handy for direct connection to a tape recorder or other recording device, while sending the 'Variable' on to your amplifier for separate monitoring)
- Built-in AM Ferrite / 'Stick' antenna w/ swivel bracket
- Front Mounted, 1/4" headphone jack with Variable Output level control

- Rear accessible 'mains' fuse

Again, we have completely gone through this unit. Looks NEAR NEW both inside and out. This is essentially the tuner that became the Pioneer TX-9500, but with the 'smoked-blue and Walnut' look of a couple years previous. Same performance, specs and slightly better build quality. Cosmetically the wood veneer case had a ding in the left, front edge and a scratch on the top. The face has a light scratch on it's top, horizontal edge and the dial window bezel trim has some of the typical oxidation we're seeing on much Pioneer gear over the past 10 years or so (see photos above).
Includes a pdf, 'e' copy, download of the Pioneer TX-9100 owners / users / instruction manual.
Looks beautiful, works and sound great! Measures 17" wide x 13.5" deep x 5.5" high and weighs 19 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

Very impressive and classy looking Kenwood KT-413, AM/FM Stereo tuner with performance to match. Handsome, 'Silver-Face' with clean functions. This tuner 'sounds' INCREDIBLE!!! Not sure why, but this tuner is one of the best performing tuners we have listened to in a long time. The ‘Auto-Search’ function works brilliantly. Very ‘solid’ locking when it finds a station. ‘Station-Lock’ is positive with no detectable drift. This is on BOTH AM and FM. Very 'phat' sonics, with incredible presence and depth. A/B testing with this tuner was an 'eye opener' for us, and we've heard a lot of gear. This tuner is very well built including rotating internal ferrite rod antenna.  The tuner preset markers do not function but still work as ‘manual indicators’ to show where your favorite stations are. 

Kenwood KT-413 AM/FM Stereo Tuner Features:

- Station Preset indicators for AM and FM
- 'Fully shielded' 5 gang tuner
- Motorized automatic “Servo Lock” tuning mechanism
- Digital Signal Strength Meter

Much better than most stereo tuners. The tuner preset markers do not function ‘automatically’, but still work to show where your favorite stations are.  Again, I think I can safely say, it's probably one of the best sounding, most 'musical' tuners, we've ever heard (and yes, we've been doing this for almost 30 years). Looks beautiful, works and sound great! Includes AM ferrite and FM dipole antennas. Measures 15.5" wide x 11" deep x 5.5" high and weighs 9 lbs unpacked.

Tuner has had complete service including cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts. Weighted flywheel assembly was completely disassembled, bushing and axle 'solvent cleaned', lubed and re-assembled (we are finding that operation, while time consuming, is becoming more and more necessary on many 'flywheel' tuners as they're all approaching their 40th-50th birthday. We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as 20 years and older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years and this one had definitely drifted. Pulls stations great now. All indicator LED's and lamps working fine. No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Following restoration procedures, the unit was ran continuously for 48 hours.

ü Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü We have completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts. Extensive cleaning of unit internally.

ü Control ( 'Output' potentiometer on rear panel) was 'flooded' w/ 'De-OxId' and is now quiet

ü Tuning flywheel shaft removed, bushing and shaft cleaned and re-lubed (this is a fairly time consuming process that we have been seeing necessary over the past couple years on most analog tuners as the lubes are 'freezing' up to the point where we've actually seen tuning knob shafts be twisted off)

ü Switches / Selectors (rotary, toggle and slide) were also flooded with cleaner.

ü We also aligned the tuner front-end on both AM & FM bands for optimum performance as older tuner components will have 'drifted' over the years.

ü AM 'Stick' ferrite core adjusted for optimum reception and minimal noise

ü AM 'Stick' antenna 'ball and socket' inspected and is holding well.

ü Tuner string checked for any fraying then re-tensioned to increase traction & relieve flywheel binding and re-centered pointer to correct dial position.

ü We replaced all 'dial / meter' light bulbs (even though the existing units were for the time being working) for trouble-free service.

 
ü No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent!

ü All functions test fine,

Following restoration procedures, the unit was ran continuously for 48+ hours. Total restoration time investment ~4.5 hours. You will not be disappointed.

VERY GOOD TUNER! Generally AM reception in a stereo receiver is treated as an 'after thought', but the AM reception on this one is WAY above average. Pulls in stations like an old 'Tube' radio! FM reception also incredible and IMPECCABLY CLEAN!!!

This tuner is in fabulous condition. As stated earlier, we have completely gone through this unit. Looks great both inside and out.

Cosmetically, with the exception of some minor 'tics' on the face, and along the top 'side edge' of the wood case and a few, old scratches from other gear sitting on top in the past (only really noticeable when looking 'down from above' the unit. Lemon oil pretty much hides them from being distracting) the tuner looks great (see photos above). Also, the plastic 'lock' for the AM stick antenna was sheared off at sometime in the past (probably because someone tried to use the AM antenna as a "handle" which is why most gear has a sticker on the antenna stick that states, "NOT a handle").


Works and sounds great as well!

 This tuner has a very selective FM section and an above average AM section. Much better than most stereo tuners. This is a great AM/FM tuner from 1978-79!

ü Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü We have completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts. Extensive cleaning of unit internally.

ü Control potentiometers were 'flooded' w/ 'De-OxId' and are now quiet

ü Switches / Selectors were also flooded with cleaner.

ü All 'edge card' style PCB's removed, contacts burnished prior to re-insertion.

ü I felt that the tuner flywheel was a bit 'sluggish' (and I've seen them 'freeze up' once they start having resistance to their motion), so I sent it back through the tech procedure, and had them disassemble the flywheel assembly (not a particularly easy task), clean the bushing / axel, and re-lube. Now is should be good for another 30-40 years. Frankly we are seeing this WAY more often on tuner flywheels, as the 'lubes' are hitting the end of their intended life.

ü RCA I/O jacks cleaned of surface corrosion.

ü We also aligned the tuner front-end on both AM & FM bands for optimum performance as older tuner components will have 'drifted' over the years.

ü AM 'Stick' ferrite core adjusted for optimum reception and minimal noise

ü AM 'Stick' antenna 'ball and socket' inspected and is holding well.

ü Tuner string checked for any fraying then re-tensioned to increase traction & relieve flywheel binding and re-centered pointer to correct dial position.

ü Tuner dial pointer further aligned electronically

ü New lamps / bulbs installed for "Selector / Function / Meter / Dial" etc: 2x #25-020, 7x #25-130, 1x #47 / 6.3V/150mA & 1x / 6.3V/70mA. Triple emmiter LED's in 'Warm' Kelvin temp for "Dial".

   


 
ü No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent!

ü All functions test fine.

ü Following restoration procedures, the unit was ran continuously for 48+ hours. Total restoration time investment ~11 hours. You will not be disappointed.

- LED indicators for "Stereo", "Muting-1", "Muting-2" and "MPX Filter"

- RCA outputs for FM Multipath Vertical / Horizontal as well as "Detector Out" ("Detector out" was an accessory RCA output allowing for future, 'Pre-Discriminator' output of 4-channel / Quad FM, which never happened as far as we know)
- Built-in AM 'Bar' Ferrite antenna on single axis, hinged bracket

- Dimmer selector for 'Incandescent' lamps (no effect on the LED's...cause they're "LED's".)

- Easy to service. Most of the circuit boards are connected via multi-pin, edge connectors

- Binding posts for AM and FM antenna connection as well as a 75-Ohm / Coax antenna port

First Accuphase tuner we've had in 25 years. This is an amazing FM tuner (yes, it does AM, but I'm going to assume you're not buying it for it's "AM" performance, just like you don't buy a "Class-A Motorhome" because of their gas mileage. Believe me, I just did that and at 8.5 mpg, I'm quite happy). Actually, the AM does quite a respectable job. FM sounds amazing!!!
Again, we have completely gone through this unit. Looks NEAR NEW inside and with a few obligatory 'battle scars' on the outside (small tics, nics and striations. Also some finish wear spots near the hinge, inside the drop down panel. See photos above).
From an original Review circa 1975:
"Behind it's "Clark-Kent-ish" exterior, the T-100 is a Super Tuner! It was preceded by some advertising and performance claims that seemed extravagant, but it appears that for once, the adman speaketh with un-forked tongue"..."Finally a word about the multipath meter. A separate meter may seem like an extravagance, but here it is not. This multipath meter is very sensitive and extremely useful in rotating and antenna for minimum multipath-even challenging oscilloscopes for utility in this respect. And in a tuner with such fine sensitivity, quieting, and distortion characteristics, multipath may well be the limiting performance factor, particularly in urban areas. A good idea, well executed. Kensonic has done itself proud with the Accuphase T-100".
Comes with e-copies / pdf download of the original Accuphase / Kensonic T-100 owners / user / instruction manual, a review from 1975 and the Accuphase brouchure / catalog. Can also come with e-copies / pdf download of the original Accuphase / Kensonic T-100 service manual if the purchaser desires.
Measures 17.5" wide x 14" deep x 6" high and weighs 31 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

* The Orion Blue book states a "Circa" range of 1973-1983. That would be quite a 'long' span of time for a single model to remain current and I generally consider the "Orion" guide to be maybe 70-80% accurate, at least up to the years that I own. I can find the Accuphase T-100 listed in my "Audio Buyers Guides" and some other Catalogs / buyers guides from 1974 to 1978.
