Description: A somewhat rare & beautiful Pioneer SA-9100, cleaned, partially recapped & professionally serviced. It was serviced in July 2024. It has a very detailed sound, slightly warm, very solid & powerful bass response due to the high damping factor of 70. This was Pioneer's top of the line integrated amplifier of the time (1973-75). You will not find a nicer example of this model anywhere. 2 phono inputs, 2 AUX, a tuner and 2 tape loops, as well as 3 speaker sets. It has more tone adjustment options than you will ever need.

My SA9100 simply makes music and makes me forget the amp is in the way." Reviewed Aug 11th, 2019 by the king"Bought this sa9100 back in 1975. Used it for may years till around 1995 and then went to a smaller unit because my wife complained about all that audio gear took space, so bought a small mini kit and with time blue tooth ect and got used to the sound. Took this monster back out today with turntable, plugged her in with my mack 400 speakers and....... WOW!!! This amp is amazing! Cannot compare this to the new stuff today, its much better, great soft sound, bass, all you need is there! Great power also!" Reviewed May 01st, 2018 by greenflash"Last year I got a unit in eBay, which I restored cosmetically (I love its looks, the recessed lettering, the fully button-supplied front panel). Lots of inputs (AUX1/2, TAPE 1/2, two phonos) 3 pairs of speakers.. and much more. Recently I got a second unit while I recap the first one; the sound is powerful and authoritative, I love it, you can't go wrong with this mean machine." DescriptionThe 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.

I am very honest about any issues that exist, just check my feedback. One buyer reviewed me as “Honest, Honest, Honest Seller”. I treat buyers like I would expect to be treated. I am a hobbyist that buys items that need help, clean/fix them up, enjoy them for a while and sometimes sell them. I do not work on other people's equipment. If you need help hooking up anything you buy from me, just message me and I would be more than happy to assist. Check out the photos. The photos display exactly what this item is. I would like to guarantee this item. However, too many unprincipled buyers that strip parts and then wanted to return electronics as being defective force me to protect myself from this type of abuse. I will pack well and insure the package during shipping. One recent buyer stated that he thought that his unit could have been dropped from a truck at highway speed and still survived intact. If the shipping cost seems excessive, eBay seems to overestimate shipping costs so I have been offering to refund anything over the actual shipping cost. I tell them the size and weight and they estimate from there. · Nothing else, no further warranties or guarantees are implied. This vintage item is being listed and sold AS-IS because of parts swappers, people hooking stuff up wrong and scammers. · I video record the unit working, as well as the process of both packing and shipping so that there is concrete evidence that the item I sent is what was listed. I will also have video recordings of returns being opened. I will not only take this evidence to eBay but I will take legal action as Mail Fraud is a Federal offense.
