Stereo
Receiver with high-performance tuner and direct-coupled OCL power amplifier.
There is a
wide range of Pioneer stereo receivers to satisfy the needs and demands of
virtually every audio fan. One of the latest, the SX-434, is specifically
designed for those who insist on low distortion but who feel that paying for
power they don't need is wasteful. The SX-434 has more than enough power, yet
is priced to appeal to budget-conscious music lovers. Its FM section provides
an excellent 1,9 µV sensitivity (IHF), a capture ratio of 1,0 dB (IHF)
selectivity of 60 dB (IHF), and superb stereo separation of more than 30 dB
over a 50 to 10,000 Hz range. Advanced electronic circuitry throughout includes
a low-noise FET and a frequency-linear 3-gang variable capacitor in the FM
front end, exclusive IC and phase-linear ceramic filters in the FM IF section
and more. The phono equalizer in the SX-434 is high-fidelity all the way, with
RIAA equalization of less than ±1 dB deviation. The power amplifier circuitry
is the pure complementary direct-coupled OCL type with wide response and power
bandwidth. The SX-434 produces 15 W + 15 W continuous RMS power (both channels
driven at 8 Ω) with harmonic distrotion of less than 0,8% over 40 to 20,000 Hz
bandwidth. This is enough to drive two pairs of stereo speaker systems
individually or simultaneously.
High
-Performance FM Front End
The Pioneer
SX-434 features top-class FM capabilities. The low-noise FET and frequency
linear 3-gang variable capacitor in the FM front end contribute to the
excellent sensitivity of 1,9 µV (IHF). Improved image and spurious rejection
characteristics and a high signal-t-noise ratio in performance.
FM IF
Section with IC and Ceramic Filters
State-of
-the -art. Techniques are also employed in the FM IF amplifier of the SX-434.
phase-linear caermic filters and an advanced IC afford a high selectivity of 60
dB (IHF) and a capture ratio of 1,0 dB (IHF), figures you'd expect from a tuner
or receiver in a higher price category.
FM Muting
Switch
Annoying
inter-station noise can be cancelled during tuning by the handy FM muting
switch.
Exclusive
IC-Equipped AM Section
Maximum
fidelity and noise-free listening can be enjoyed in the AM band with the
IC-equipped AM section of exclusive Pioneer design.
RMS
Continuous Power 15 x 2
The
pure-complementary direct-coupled OCL design of the power amplifier section in
the SX-434 assures wide frequency response wide power bandwidth and
satisfactorily low distrotion. Continuous RMS power over the 40 to 20,000 Hz
frequency bandwidth (measured with both channel driven into 8 ohms loads) is a
stable 15 W + 15 W with less than 0,8% harmonic distortion.
Two-pair
Stereo Speaker Facilities
With its
ample power provisions, the SX-434 drives up to two independent pairs of stereo
speaker systems, one pair at atime or both together. Ideal for powering those
remote speaker.
Precise RIAA
Equalization
The
two-stage direct-coupled NF (Negative Feedback) design of the phono equalizer
in the SX-434 enables audio reproduction of records within ±1 dB deviation from
the RIAA characteristic curve.
Click-Stop
Tone Controls
The bass and
Treble tone controls are the click-stop type for convenience in adjustment.
Other
Features
The control
capabilities of the SX-434 are ideal for the average hi-fi set-up; it handles a
turntable, tape deck, microphone, Aux and has an output jack for stereo
headphone. The provided loudness contour switch enhances frequency response at
low-volume levels.
