Advantages PRODUCES NICE AND LOUD SOUND

Disadvantages LOOKS OLD.

Despite that the amplifier looks old, may be you don judge the product by the looks rather you try and get the quality service. It" s services has lead me to satisfactory and the most exiting of all is that is very durable and strong. It has served quite long in my household. Well forming the habit of playing rock music with it is not a bad idea and that is what I actually do with it.

Before I got this, I got confused and I had very strong debates on whether to buy a home theater or to buy an amplifier. Well if to say, both perform the same function capable of producing loud sound but there are some slight differences between this and a home theater in the sense that an amplifier does not have a remote control and on the other hand does not have small satellite speakers attached to it just like home theater. Second, the home theater has more advanced control system than this.

Mostly, I connect this with my portable CD player and it has given me perfect listening since I started using it.

THE AMPLIFIER

The amplifier comes in a black square box with five turning knobs for sound control and on the other hand, there Is the power button located at the front and all these contributes to the make ups of the amplifier. On other hand, there are numerous mouths pots located behind for connections on any device you intend to connect it to. The amplifier is quite heavy to carry about. On the other hand, it also has 4 standing silver metal. While 2 is located on in the front, the other 2 located at the back.

It does not come with any remote control because it is not a sound system. But one advantage it has over the sound system is that it is more durable and vigorous. Very easy to use in terms of controlling and sound regulation.

This is my first time of using any pioneer product and I am now comfortable with it in the sense that I have not gotten any problem with it. Very vigorous and produces very nice sound.

EASE Of INSTALLATION.

This is where I got a little problem initially. The major problem with this is that the wire pots at the back are quite difficult to trace in many cases. In my case, when I disconnect it from my speaker, I find it difficult to trace the correct pots where the wires should fit in and that can be quite confusing because there are many wire pots available at the back of the amplifier

That is the only problem with the amplifier and apart from that, there are no other problems with it.

EASE OF USE.

Apart from problem of wire tracings and connections, there are no other problems. The device is the easiest to use. You only control the sound by bass and treble, the max and so on.

ITS POWER CONSUMPTIONS.
Its power consumption is quite moderate. It has RMS wattage of 40 and the power consumption is really worth it

SPECIAL FEATURES

The amplifier does not have that much features rather very limited. The amplifier does not have Dolby digital sound system and with no loud speakers. Its major feature is the 40 RMS wattage.

I hope my review is quite helpful
