Offered here is a Pioneer SA-8800 integrated stereo amplifier, a highly regarded vintage Pioneer amplifier combining excellent build quality, substantial power, and the classic late-1970s Pioneer design.
This is the Japanese-market 100V AC version. A suitable 100V step-down transformer is required for proper operation when used with standard 120V U.S. household power. Transformer is not included.
The amplifier has been tested and sounds great, delivering strong, clean audio with the detailed and dynamic presentation for which this generation of Pioneer equipment is known.
The controls and switches have been serviced with DeoxIT to improve smooth and reliable operation.
Cosmetically, the amplifier is in good overall condition. The faceplate and controls present well, with some minor wear on the top cover consistent with age and normal use. Please review the photographs closely for the exact cosmetic condition.
