Offered is „A400“ by Pioneer as second-hand device from the category „Transistor-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8325293694 ends on 27.11.2026 at 14:20 o'clock.
€200 is fair for a Pioneer A-400 in good condition: it sits just above the €193 median and below the €234 75th percentile, so this is right in the normal used-market band rather than a bargain or an ask to skip. The pricing looks reasonable for a clean example, and it’s close enough to typical market value that condition and completeness matter more than squeezing the last few euros.
The A-400 is well-liked for its lively, engaging sound and straightforward build, and good examples have a strong following because they can still sound musically satisfying in a modest system. If the unit is genuinely clean, works quietly, and includes the original phono and speaker connections in good shape, it’s a solid buy; just make sure the controls are quiet and the power switch/relay behavior is healthy, as age-related servicing is the main thing to watch on older integrateds.

Pioneer traces its roots to 1937 in Tokyo, Japan, when founder Nozomu Matsumoto, inspired by the thrill of imported hi-fi speakers, developed the A-8 dynamic speaker and launched a radio and speaker repair shop. The business formalized as Fukuin Shokai Denki Seisakusho in 1938, evolving into Pioneer Corporation and embodying Matsumoto's philosophy of "Move the Heart and Touch the Soul" through audio innovation.
The brand excels across diverse hi-fi categories, pioneering Japan's first headphones in 1960 with the SE-1 and the world's first component-based stereo system in 1965 via the PSC-5A. Pioneer's portfolio spans amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark car audio advancements like the 1975 Supertuner-equipped stereo and the 1986 in-car CD player, blending home and automotive excellence.
Today, Pioneer holds a commanding mid-to-high-tier position in the market, revered for reliable, performance-driven gear that balances premium quality with accessibility. Its vintage components attract collectors, while current offerings appeal to discerning buyers seeking robust, innovative sound reproduction without boutique excess.
