Choosing a speaker system is perhaps the most important decision you'll make when you put

together a high fidelity stereo system. Your, choice of am

· plifier, receiver, source components,
etc., can be very important, too. But in the long run it is your speakers which will �etermine the
sound of your system, for they are the last and most vital link in the chain. What is a good
speaker? Judging by frequency response,·by power-handling capabilities or by distortion factors
is necessary, of course, especially when attempting to match speakers to your other compo­
nents. But the final criteria in speaker system sel�ction must be judged by your �.ars. The�pur­
suit of natural sounding reproduction is the final factor in Pioneer speaker system design and
production. In the following pages we present an· extremely wide selection of Pioneer speaker
· ize, appear­
systems, all created with your ears in mind. They range over a variety otpower, s
ance and price categories for your convenience.

tortion and intermodulation distortion- all the vital

factors for sound quality in any speaker system. You'll

sense the improved sound quality the first time you sit

to listen to the R-700. The bass response is rich, full and

transient. The mid and high ranges are sharp, crisp and

alive. All in all, a perfect achievement in sound for the

sound perfectionist.
60W 3-WAY SPEAKER SYSTEM
Pioneer presents a rich and satisfying sound experi­
ence, the experience of the R-500. New sound dynamics
and superb transient response are achieved by per­
fectly matching each component part of the system,
beginning with cone paper and reaching clear down to
the enclosure, the crossover networks and the mag­
netic circuits. Hundreds of hours of severe laboratory
testing were invested in the R-500, a fact you'll appre­
ciate all the more when you hear the results. Frequency
range, directionality, transient characteristics, low dis­
tortion and, most importantly the indefinable quality of
sound itself were taken into careful consideration.
Human hearing was the deciding factor, as your ears
will prove.
