Product details

Pioneer's latest integrated amplifier is based on the original Direct Energy concept and features a newly developed Direct Energy design that delivers a high signal-to-noise ratio and an overwhelming,
lifelike sound field. Features such as the isolated power supply, specially designed large capacitors, direct function, power amp direct circuit, volume control and front panel in aluminium and MM phono input ensure that the sound is as clear as the artist intended.

Separate windings for power amplifier, preamplifier and controller in the mains transformer prevent mutual interference. The main capacitor, on which the audio quality of the amplifier depends, was developed in cooperation with ELNA. The Pioneer logo on the capacitor winding indicates that it is a pure audio capacitor. The A-40AE's Direct functions allow you to bypass other circuits, except the volume control. This fine-tuned function improves musicality for the best possible listening experience. The specially shaped "Anti Standing Wave" decoupling feet without parallel sides are designed to avoid resonance. They ensure precise sound localization and pure sound, while also contributing to the seamless connection between channels and improving response to fast sounds.
