Well the fan kit is about the only thing I could have afforded in 1980.

Now,37 years later I might be able to swing the speaker stands.

Damn, the PL 400 has not made it back up to more than or equal to retail of the 80's. Guess I will hold mine for a good while longer. 10 years more and It will make it !

The value is there if you adjust for inflation

If we assume a used PL400 avg selling price in 2017 is $400, in 1980 that would be $132.

That $700 new price in 1980 would cost you $2,113 today. Looking around Crutchfield for a 200 watt per channel two channel amp, that $2,113 price is in the the ballpark.

How about a 200WPC ' Made in America' Stereo amp?

I did not know 4 speaker models existed at that time. I also though the 8000 turntable was introduced after Pioneer bought the brand, but the price list says otherwise.

My 8000 turntable was $675 in 1982. I guess I got a deal on that.

The PL8000 service manual is Phase Linear Lynnwood Wa.

The PL8000A Manual is from International Jensen.

Phase Linear Collector

Thank you for providing the pricing of PL equipment. My first PL was purchased in West Germany in 1980, the PL 300 amp and the PL 3300 preamp, still have both and have continued to add to the collection as the decades roll on. It's not real music till played on a Phase Linear amp ;P

Best regards,

Charlie
