About this listing
🎛️ Pioneer SA-9900 Vintage Integrated Amplifier — Serviced, Tested + VideoThe Pioneer SA-9900 is one of the most substantial and desirable integrated amplifiers from Pioneer’s classic 1970s era. With its high-power direct-coupled design, extensive tone-shaping controls, dual phono capability, tape routing, preamp/power-amp separation, and distinctive brushed-aluminum faceplate, the SA-9900 was built as a serious high-end stereo amplifier.This example has been professionally serviced, cleaned, and fully tested. It remains largely original internally and is being represented accurately as a serviced vintage amplifier — not as fully recapped, fully rebuilt, or fully restored.The photos and included YouTube demonstration video show the exact amplifier being sold and are part of the description.HighlightsPioneer SA-9900 stereo integrated amplifierApprox. 110 watts per channel into 8 ohmsProfessionally serviced and cleanedFully tested after serviceYouTube demo video of this exact unit includedService tag includedInternal photos included for transparencyClassic brushed-aluminum silver-face designDual phono inputsAUX and tuner inputsDual tape loopsPre-out / power-in capabilitySpeaker A / B / A+B selectionDual bass controls at 50 Hz and 100 HzDual treble controls at 10 kHz and 20 kHzHigh- and low-frequency filters0 / -15 dB / -30 dB attenuatorStereo / reverse / L+R mode controlLarge transformer and substantial rear heat-sink assemblyMade in JapanProfessional Service / Cleaning / TestingThis Pioneer SA-9900 has received professional service and cleaning.The original service tag shown in the photos is included with the amplifier.After service, the unit was cleaned and tested for operation.The front-panel controls, switches, inputs, speaker outputs, and operating functions were checked as part of the preparation for sale.Restoration DisclosureThis amplifier is not being represented as fully recapped, fully rebuilt, or fully restored.Internal photographs show a largely original amplifier with many original-era components still present.
