Pioneer CT-F900

Pioneer CT-910

1 9 7 8 1978
1 9 7 9 1979

A transitional model but a majestuous one, with Pioneer trying to accomodate the control keys a bit like Luxman does.

Inside is however mid-end only :
two motors & three heads, 17Khz frequency response (at best), 64dB s/n ratio (bis), a bias trim pot, a sizeable transformer and... lots of free space behind the 18,7cm front.


The CT-F900 was available with a wood enclosure as well, making it one of the most striking unit Pioneer ever designed.
