Pioneer Stereo Turntables Are Stereo Amplifiers still being made?
I have an old Pioneer Stereo System (from around 1973) in my room at home. It is a big system (5 components) but everything is separate. The Amp is one component, the Radio tuner is another, the CD drive is a third, then there is the tape deck, and turntable.. all separate from each other. I got new bose speakers last year and every once in a while they sound a little fuzzy ( i know its not the speakers because i have checked) and i have been looking to replace the amplifier before it completely burns out, but all i can find are the home theater systems that have all 5 crammed into 1 monstrosity.
so basically my question is does anyone (pioneer, alpine, or any other brand) still produce the amp by its lonesome? i don't really want to spend $1,500 on a home theater receiver if i don't need to. But all i can find are car amplifiers.
All the big makes still do, if you look on their websites. If you can get hold of one I highly recommend the A5, made by Cambridge Audio - i've been using one for as long as i can remember (mine's really old and they still make the new ones the same way...) and it sounds great.
Pick up a hifi magazine and read the reviews, there are god knows how many stereo amplifiers around. They definatly are still going - alot of people want them for music (i use a seperate amp for home cinema and music - the stereo amp is far better at playing music)

Pioneer DJM-1000 Pioneer DJM-1000 Description: After much industry speculation Pioneer Europe announces the availability of the DJM-1000 professional DJ mixer. The DJM-1000 is a robust installation grade mixer with the highest quality digital audio, enhanced functionality and intuitive design. It's the result of extensive industry research and development with world-renowned DJs, club technicians and installation engineers. The DJM-1000 employs Pioneer's expertise in audio technology to create a high-end reference audio mixer that is easily connected to traditional DJ equipment as well as other digital devices like samplers, effectors and digital turntables - giving professional DJs uncompromised performance and the flexibility to perform the best possible sets. "We continue to see growth in the DJ market and the need for creating professional, as well as innovative, digital products" said Jason Pook, Product Planning Manager for Pioneer Europe. "Pioneer remains committed to offering the high quality equipment demanded by professional DJs and clubs around the world. The DJM-1000 is an example of that commitment." Pioneer's heritage in digital technology has been used to create a high-grade digital audio path for the DJM-1000. The mixer has a 24-bit/96kHz digital sampling rate and a 32-bit/96kHz digital sound processor. The DJM-1000's digital input-output signal path allows for transparent signal processing of Pioneer's CDJ and DVJ series of digital decks, ensuring the best possible sound quality. Analogue input signals are also digitised by a high quality A/D converter and mixed without any deterioration to the audio. The unit has a rigid chassis to minimise vibrations and a high performance power supply to produce clear, powerful sound. The inclusion of a 3-band Master Isolator allows the user to control the levels from +6dB to - ∞ (Kill) dB in each band. It can also be used to attenuate and accent partial bands. A 17 phase fader curve allows adjustment not only of the cross fader curve but also the curves of the channel faders. This enables DJs to customise the feel of the mixer to suit their own personal style. The DJM-1000 is also designed to integrate easily with the new Pioneer EFX-1000 Effector along with future Pioneer Pro-DJ products. All will share the same high quality sound and can be controlled via digital links to give even greater variety to a DJ's performance. DJM-1000 Unique features and industry firsts included on the DJM-1000 are: A new Sound Link / EFX Link function that is used to control other Pioneer equipment via a link cable. A BPM Synchronise Function that synchronises the BPMs of all attached equipment, i.e. CDJs and an EFX unit. A Visual Link Button used when other visual equipment is connected, which enables control of visual effects and fades with the Pioneer MIDI cross fader. "In complete honesty the DJM - 1000 is the best all round mixer I've ever used. The problem I've had with mixers in the past is that the
Pioneer SVJ-DL01 Pioneer SVJ-DL01 Description: Pioneer's new DJ software was designed for professional and amateur DJs to enable full-scale DJ play on a PC. The software offers the same playability and functionality as the company's Pro DJ products, using a PC instead of two CDJ turntables and a DJ mixer. The DJS software also has a ripping function for converting CD, line input signals and wave files to .mp3. The graphic user interface is intuitive and easy to understand. It follows the same ergonomic design used in all Pioneer CDJ products and mixers. The display shows everything a professional DJ needs to see, including: time, BPM, mixer controls, jog dial, hot cue buttons, etc. The DJ can assign basic functions to a particular key on the PC keyboard. By doing this for frequently used functions, the DJ can establish his or her own playing style - on a keyboard. In addition, the sync feature automatically beat matches the cued track to the track that is playing and a powerful effects program mimics the effector features of the DJM600.

Other features include fader start, for the Pioneer CDJ series, 3-band EQ per channel, microphone input, and very flexible headphone monitor split functions. Auto BPM Counter Equipped with a counter that automatically measures and digitally displays a track's BPM measurement range: 70-139 / 91-180 / 71-180 / Manual The DJM-600 provides a visual confirmation of a track's tempo to allow the user to merge one song into another smoothly. Also, BPMs of tracks that are difficult to measure can be manually input by tapping on the TAP button. Auto Beat Sampler This is a new DJ function that allows you to sample your favorite sources and play them back easily at the touch of a button. The BPM is measured digitally and recorded automatically exclusively for designated beats. ( 1 / 2 / 4 / 8 / 16 ) beats, Maximum interval: 6 seconds. If set to the Stand-By mode when no sound is present, the function automatically starts and stops recording in response to the presence and absence of the input signal and achieves the correct sampling with perfect timing.
