That is an EPIC score!
The Pioneer SX-1080 was the second to the top of the line, and one of the best receivers Pioneer made. It's rated at 120 watts per channel.
The TEAC A-6300 is a great sounding workhorse of an open-reel deck. The TEAC decks are very reliable, in my experience. I have two similar TEAC open reel machines. They're extremely solid machines & hard to kill.
I don't know much about the Sony TC-850, but it looks like a impressive deck!
The Revox A-77 is a vintage pro-quality deck used by broadcasters, audio professionals, and well-heeled audiophiles. A properly adjusted one in good working order sounds spectacular.
You could've paid $80 for any one piece of that gear and still gotten a killer deal. To say you did good, is the understatement of the year.
Cheers & congrats!
