None at all, I fear, but I've looked it up and it certainly seems to be an impressive beast - I tend to favour Revox/Studer over Japanese machines in general because of the bomb-proof engineering, but YMMV. A properly engineered dual capstan layout is essential at this level, and this the Pioneer has, it seems.
