  • 4-channel display volume control front, rear (controls are on the back)


Remarks

  • The second generation of Pioneer's classic (and rare) Test Instrument. It integrated an oscilloscope with waveform/lissajous/FM multipath display options and combines that with dual (V/H or L/R) level meter.
  • The unit has an integrated frequency generator for sweep and sine and 4 separately controllable inputs.
  • The SD-1100 is a stereo display device that can synthetically observe and measure acoustic properties such as various waves and also sound field property of a listening room.
  • The stereo display can also be used to observe and analyze the waveforms of 4-channel stereo equipment and simultaneously measure the sound field characteristics of the receiving room.
  • A tuner with multipath output can be connected and the alignment of the antenna can be optimized more easily.
  • Two large dimension level meters can be used for power and voltage measurement as well as VU level meter.
  • Input terminals for 4-channel are also prepared.
  • The instrument is also equipped with a wideband frequency amplifier for a mono microphone. In this way, the sensitivity, acoustic frequency response and characteristics of the speaker system can be checked with an electret condenser microphone. The Pioneer microphone was optionally available as type Pioneer CM-01.
