Pioneer A-717V

Short description

The A-717V was an integrated amplifier of the large Pioneer series of the late 80s and early 90s, i.e. models A-6xx to A-8xx. Its audio technology was based on the A-717 MK II, additionally the A-717V had a video section with S-Video and composite connections. Unfortunately, you can hardly ever find them used in Germany.
