Pioneer A-204R (1995–1998)
A stereo integrated amplifier from Pioneer's mid-1990s lineup, with a phono input and remote control.
Overview
The Pioneer A-204R is a stereo integrated amplifier built between 1995 and 1998. It was made for home audio systems. It has a built-in phono input, so a turntable connects directly with no external phono preamp. It came with a remote for volume and source selection. Detailed technical documentation is sparse. The amplifier shows up on the used market, and users note reliable performance when it has been maintained.
