Pioneer SA-9100

Integrated Amplifier

Packed with an array of useful features found in up-market Japanese audio from the 1970’s, this classic ‘Made in Japan’ shelf-bender was top-of-the-range in its day and has just had pots and switches cleaned & serviced and is in full and perfect working order.

Physical condition is very nice (see close-up pictures). The front fascia is excellent. The wood sleeve is good, with a few little blemishes – but nothing really nasty.

The following information is from the excellent hifiengine.com website:-
The SA-9100 is Pioneer's finest professional stereo integrated amplifier. It features an all stage direct coupled pure complementary OCL circuit, resulting in a super wide bandwidth and distortion free power, a unique 3 stage direct coupled equalizer, twin stepped tone controls for making critical bass and treble adjustments and level set volume and loudness contour controls to adjust listening preference. Other features include 2-way tape duplicating and monitoring, 2 position high and low filters and 3 pairs of speaker output terminals.
