Pioneer SX-440

 The SX-440 is the latest in stereo receivers, made strictly for those who care a lot about stereo. It uses an FET in the FM front end to provide excellent selectivity, and sensitivity as high as 2,5 µV (IHF). The AM tuner section is equipped for ideal reception with a ferrite loop antenna. The audio-frequency output circuit is all silicon transistorized and employs the SEPP-OTL system. Music power output is at a dynamic 40 watts (IHF), with all this , the SX-440  will make a fine addition to your room and you'll discover qualities of sound you never know existed.
 FM Tuner Section
When choosing a good general-purpose stereo receiver careful inspection must first be made of the FM section. The reliability of the front end section is vital for perfect reproduction of FM monarual and stereo broadcasts. The FM front end of the SX-440 is about the best you can get - a combination of an FET and a three-gang variable capacitor. Even in areas where station crowding occurs the SX-440 delivers clear, interference-free reception. The high sensitivity (2,5µV ) is indicative of the superior FM performance of this receiver.

FM Multiplex Section
The advanced circuity of the SX-440 includes an FM multiplex section, time switching type, with automatic common, defeatable stereo functioning. Channel separation is more than 38 dB (at 1khz). Easy to read front dial has a lamp to indicate FM stereo performance.

AM Tuner Section
The superhoterodyne AM tuner has a receiving band of between 525 - 1605 kHz to equal the range of Am broadcasts. Sensitivity is 8µV, so it doesn't require an outdor antenna when in the vicinity of a station; the SX-440 has an adeguate ferrite loop stick bar antenna to pick up most any AM broadcasts.
 Audio Section
The SEPP-OTL system is used in the advanced audio output circuit. This gives it an output of 40 watts, perfect for home use and with powerful stereo separation.

Complete Terminal Facilities
With the SX-440 you can  add a complete stereo system from the selection of terminals provided. It combines ideally with tthe best quality record players, stereo tape recorders and reverbration amplifiers, with all terminals conveniently located, plus a set of auxiliary input terminals. For tape deck versatility, a tape monitor circuit and tape recording/playback jack to DIN standards are provided. You can ever connect two separate loudspeaker systems through this practical receiver.

Elegant and Unique Design
The midnight black front panel is finished with special acrylic resin over the entire surface, giving the SX-440 a sophisticated durable lustre. Power switch-on brings out subdued illumination for crystal-clear readings. Take a look at  the SX-440 and you'll agree it's the smartest set ever.
