The A400 was Pioneers breakthru in the world of British Audiophile Dominance during the 90s..shaking the industry with its credible performance for those on a budget...it still remains a well loved cult classic no bullshit Integrated Amplifier till this day and age...although they are getting harder to come by..this set is in very good condition and a true collectors item..asking a reasonable $300 for this baby based on its very good condition..furthermore this is the Original A400 which is more sought after than the newer a400x/a401 etc etc..sms me at 90999917 if keen..would rather sell to collectors who appreciate this..lowballers please refrain from making an offer..dont waste money by sending your free sms keep it for a rainy day ..actual pictures shown below..
""High noon for British hi-fi
"The UK hi-fi industry used to look down upon Japanese product. All that changed with Pioneer's launch of the A400 amp, says Mat Toor"
"The hi-fi dealers were getting into the groove at a disco in Bristol's Holiday Inn one Saturday night last February. The Bristol Hi-Fi show was over and dealers and manufacturers were drinking and dancing away their image as anoraked and obsessive introverts. But as the lights flashed and the booze flowed a hidden current of resentment coursed through most of the partygoers. There was a stranger here, someone who didn't fit in. Then the DJ interrupted the music with a dedication "and this song's for Tony and all the guys at Pioneer UK". Silence struck. Long seconds later the calm gave way to a chorus of boos.
Pioneer, it seemed, had done something to offend.
It was the worst possible offence. Pioneer had produced a product that took on the Brits and beat them at their own game. It stripped the UK industry of the carefully nurtured Truth that it alone could produce products to satisfy the uncompromising ear of the UK consumer. And it raised fears that the British hi-fi industry would be swamped by better-built and cheaper Japanese products which at last could match the Brits on sound quality.
That product was the A 400 amplifier. And some fear that this big, black monolithic machine would make an eloquent tombstone when the UK industry is finally buried.""
