Pioneer SA-8500 was dropped and that's why it's on the bench.

- this Pioneer sa 8500 is a super nice amplifier, sounds real nice and lot's of punch for your music room, even though it is set for 60wpc, I got 68wpc out of this one with no distortion.
I am in love with these pioneers, in the 70's when the competition was fears, everyone wanted to be the best....pioneer was no exception...
Love the sound of this amplifier and I'm sure you would too...
enjoy my video and PLS subscribe... - Jak na to + styl
Thanks for your time on this classic amp; I have the MkII version, love it! These mid to late 70's pieces are just built like tanks.
I love the 80s black look, but these 70's amps just really look the part and yes, they are definitely built to last.
Great video! This is Pete here the guy on the phone I see what you mean when you said you would get a kick out of this LOL. Great job btw Joe
11:49 Idle current (Bias) instructions, there's a mistake : it should be pots VR3 (L) and VR4 (R) that you're rotating.
Likewise for the Zero junction point, there's another mistake : it should be pots VR1 (L) and VR2 (R) that you're rotating.
Basically, Pioneer mixed up the bias and dc zero pots.

your absolutly right about the print error in the trimmer pots, I'm actually finishing another sa8500 and I will mention it on this video....
thanks buddy!!
Excellent Joe! hey what brand are your probes, can't seem to find any online that look like those. Great tune-up there.
Hi, g.fortin3228
thank you for watching this video and my alligators clips are FLUKE, they came with this multimeter. you can buy them from fluke but they are expensive. I do use them alot
Hi I have SA 7500 amp, function switch on aux seems to drop out and crackle in left speaker , would this be a volume balance potentiometre problem or function switch or anything else ?
Hmmmm.... He checken The DC levels only on one pair of loudspeaker terminal. I guessed The loudspeaker pair A. But How about pair B and A+B???
He checked the DC level on both channels and it was 6mV for both
The last measurement you saw was full power. No need to check the B speaker outputs because it will be exactly the same
Don't you wish they were all this easy?
Lol....YES but i take em as they come...
