Vegas Baby...Vegas Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I've been searching for one like a mad man for the last 3 weeks Everyone is "sold out" but they don't seem to know why... I realize Pioneer does not produce the item...but they do distribute them... Crutchfield is back-ordered indefinitely...Can't tell me anything Sirius...nadda. guy I spoke to claims they are waiting for a possible new unit in October...but remarked that it was PURE SPECULATION. Pioneer Verified plenty of units in stock but said nobody was ordering them???? wtf? couldn't/wouldn't tell me anymore then that Best Buy...nuff said C.C....again I have literally called every local shop, ebay, etc etc all I can find is an occasional used unit or a "Reconditioned" unit... im getting desperate here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vegas Baby...Vegas Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 It's being discontinued for a new model. I've heard this too... but what happened to all the old units? 2nd why is it such a big freaking secret? its obvious that something like this is going down...but almost nobody will speak of it... does anyone know if the new model will be THAT much different?

Vegas Baby...Vegas Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Our rep actually said they are getting more PNR2s this month. N4s coming too you are literally the 10th person who has told me this...almost to the T... I've been hearing this for months...I call back..."nope we haven't gotten any" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Our rep has told us for the last two months not to hold our breath that any will show up. Seems confident this month though. Guess we will find out in the next few weeks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

installermarc Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 the sir-pnr2 was discontinued because there have been some issues of the unit locking up and shutting down for no reason (at least from what i have heard) and the liscensing agreement between pioneer, sirius and directed electronics (who makes the tuner) is not finished yet. so no pioneer sirius tuners can be found to sell. i know, i've looked. so we are selling buttloads of xm right now. no eta on sir-pnr3 either. hopefully by christmas.

whtcrxghst Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Cool story but I have never seen any PNR2s lock up. And DEI doesn't make it either, they just buy and distribute from the same overseas company that makes the other branded tuners. And our Pioneer rep says they are filling all PNR2s this month. Guess only time will tell the sir-pnr2 was discontinued because there have been some issues of the unit locking up and shutting down for no reason (at least from what i have heard) and the liscensing agreement between pioneer, sirius and directed electronics (who makes the tuner) is not finished yet. so no pioneer sirius tuners can be found to sell. i know, i've looked. so we are selling buttloads of xm right now. no eta on sir-pnr3 either. hopefully by christmas.
