Our thoughts

One compact chassis takes a moving magnet turntable straight in, making it a tidy heart for a vinyl-led two-channel system.

The built-in phono stage, rated at 2.8 mV, takes a turntable directly, with no separate phono box. It accepts moving magnet cartridges only, so moving coil set-ups need their own phono stage. The Direct Energy MOS design uses MOSFET output devices, intended to give smoother performance and better current handling. The loudness contour lifts bass and treble at low volume, designed to keep quiet listening fuller. A/B speaker switching lets two pairs of speakers share the amp.

Rated at 30 W per channel into 8 ohms, it suits small to medium rooms and classic two-channel systems. This pre-loved unit is in great functional condition and very good physical condition for its age. Speaker matching and cartridge choice are the decisions to talk through, so call the team or come in for a chat.

The Pioneer A-109 is a compact integrated amplifier built to deliver straightforward hi-fi performance with a focus on musicality and simplicity. Offering around 30 watts per channel into 8 ohms, it provides enough clean power for small to medium-sized rooms, especially when paired with reasonably efficient speakers. A DIN power rating of 40 watts at 1 kHz also gives a little extra headroom for peaks.

This amp was part of Pioneer’s “Direct Energy MOS” line, which employed MOSFET transistors in the power stage for smoother performance and better current handling. The sound is clean, balanced, and musical, with low distortion at normal listening levels.

The Pioneer A-109 includes a built-in phono stage for Moving Magnet cartridges, letting you connect a turntable directly. Additional line inputs allow for CD players, tuners, or tape decks. On the output side, it offers tape/recorder outputs, headphone jack, and A/B speaker switching.

For tailoring the sound, it has bass and treble controls, a balance knob, and a loudness contour switch. The loudness function boosts low and high frequencies at low volume settings, helping maintain full sound at quiet listening levels.

Physically, the unit is compact and lightweight at just over 4 kg, making it easy to place in smaller systems. While it lacks modern features like digital inputs, DACs, or streaming, the A-109 excels as a simple, affordable hi-fi amplifier with enough flexibility for a classic two-channel setup.

Pioneer A-109 condition, warranty and shipping.

Great functional condition and very good physical condition for age. 30 day warranty is supplied with the product. No free shipping applies and there is no box so please contact the store for any shipping enquiries.
