Pioneer Stereo Receiver Model Sx 828

[Front] Looks great with Pioneer DDJ_SX. Build quality is superb. It does add some weight, you'll get used to because it is not much. Overall a great product to protect your investment in DJ equipment whether you are flying or not.

[29.5 lb] The Pioneer DDJ SX fits great! Enough room for your hard drive and cables.

[0.96 lb] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Connected it to my vintage Pioneer SX-650, works flawlessly and sounds great.

[>100 MΩ] My Pioneer SX-727 interconnect jacks are very close together making the use of quality interconnects impossible. These Switchcraft plugs have a much narrower barrel diameter, thus eliminating the issue. I clipped the original plugs off of my interconnects and soldered these on - easy-peasy.

[> 70 dB ] The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

[Top-Loading] I've been using Pioneer stereo products since the '80s. This is the first piece of computer hardware I've purchased from them and it is a fine piece of equipment. Very well made and engineered!

[5.2] Was a Pioneer fan boy till their Elite receiver and Blu Ray player failed me after 2 yrs of usage. Read allot of recommendations about Denon and decided to try their 5.2 A/V receiver offering. My 'Sierra 2' sounded so alive and present now with the headroom to go more. What a difference in sound.

[1 User] I bought the Yamaha A-S301 to replace an aging 1998 Pioneer receiver. The Yamaha delivers more solid bass. Perhaps less treble, but less treble distortion. For example, you can distinguish between different crash or ride cymbals. Horn sections are very clear, without harshness. I listen mostly to CDs, so the optical input is nice. I use efficient Klipsch R-820F tower speakers, so the Yamaha has plenty of headroom.

[S-Shaped] I wanted to upgrade my turntable from a basic Pioneer model, and I'm happy with this choice. The base has a nice solid feel to it. It took a bit of work to set up properly, but the pay off is worth it. Sound is very clean. I miss the auto return, but you'll learn to deal with it.
