Boxen aus dem Bestand meines Vaters. Sie funktionieren beide, kratzen etwas. Da so lange nicht benutzt wurden. Der Schaumstoff an den großen Lautsprechern fällt raus die Boxen funktionieren aber.
The timing matters because this is a 1980–83 vintage design with a loyal following, and good examples have become more collectible rather than easier to replace. At €200, it sits well below the €270 25th percentile and far under the €344 median, so this reads as a strong bargain even before factoring in condition.
That said, the “for_parts” tag is the key: the upside is in the drivers, cabinets, and originality rather than a ready-to-play package. HPM-900s are well regarded for big, lively presentation and strong bass, and clean, complete pairs still draw serious interest; if the cabinet is sound and the drivers are present, €200 is very tempting. Just budget for restoration work and verify the hard-to-source woofer condition before jumping.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Pioneer traces its roots to 1937 in Tokyo, Japan, when founder Nozomu Matsumoto, inspired by the thrill of imported hi-fi speakers, developed the A-8 dynamic speaker and launched a radio and speaker repair shop. The business formalized as Fukuin Shokai Denki Seisakusho in 1938, evolving into Pioneer Corporation and embodying Matsumoto's philosophy of "Move the Heart and Touch the Soul" through audio innovation.
The brand excels across diverse hi-fi categories, pioneering Japan's first headphones in 1960 with the SE-1 and the world's first component-based stereo system in 1965 via the PSC-5A. Pioneer's portfolio spans amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark car audio advancements like the 1975 Supertuner-equipped stereo and the 1986 in-car CD player, blending home and automotive excellence.
Today, Pioneer holds a commanding mid-to-high-tier position in the market, revered for reliable, performance-driven gear that balances premium quality with accessibility. Its vintage components attract collectors, while current offerings appeal to discerning buyers seeking robust, innovative sound reproduction without boutique excess.
