Multi Channel Stereophonic Concept
The VSX-35TX receiver is constructed with Pioneer’s industry-leading multi channel stereophonic concept. This
well-developed approach to receiver circuitry takes the high level base technology that, up until now, has been
only used for stereo equipment and applies it to multi-channel audio-visual receivers. The result is that the
product, in addition to being expertly built, and gives you optimal sound reproduction of DVDs, other multi
channel sources and stereo sources as well. This receiver is designed capture to a true reproduction of the
intentions of a filmmaker or music producer at the time they were mastering the soundtrack in the studio. It
incorporates 5 independent 90
watt built in power amplifiers, with high-performance Hex power Direct Power
MOS FET output transistors. The isolated chamber construction cuts off unwanted electrical influences from the
digital circuitry and allows accurate representation of each channel for true high fidelity reproduction from even
the most demanding Dolby Digital and DTS program sources. In addition, the amplifier uses Direct Construction
to give the purest sound available. All these elements consolidated in one receiver afford the listener a new
surround sound experience in his or her home.
Universal Player Compatibility
This receiver incorporates the latest technology and is able to handle cutting edge audio formats, like DVD Audio,
which are just hitting the market. Its high compatibility offers a variety of inputs to decode all types of sources at
the highest possible quality. The receiver’s multi channel in connections lets you hook up eight discrete channels
of audio. It also has multi channel direct inputs and the ability to decode the cutting edge formats.
Decoding of Next Generation Digital Source Film Formats
Built into this receiver is the latest in film sound format technology. This technology includes the recent THX
SURROUND EX and HOME THX CINEMA surround modes which employ special processing to allow you to
enjoy movie soundtracks with the same level of power and realism you experience in well-designed movie
theaters. The THX SURROUND EX mode has been especially designed to incorporate surround back channels
that some new source material uses. This receiver has the ability to decode Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic and
DTS (Digital Theater Systems) sources, which are the standards of home theater today. It also offers component
video terminals for the sharpest video transmission available to the consumer.
Advanced Theater Modes & DSP Surround Modes
Advanced Theater modes enhance the sound of either film or music so a more dramatic effect can be achieved.
The four modes are each designed to accentuate specific sound qualities, giving the listener a wide range of
possibilities. DSP (Digital Signal Processing) surround modes give you the capability of transforming your living
room into seven different sonic environments when listening to music.
Midnight Mode, Digital Noise Reduction & 7 Channel Tone Control
The Midnight mode allows you to obtain excellent surround sound effects even when listening at low volumes,
something that was previously impossible. Digital noise reduction filters out unwanted noise from recordings to
give you a clearer sound and the 7 channel tone control allows you to adjust the treble and bass of each channel
individually to suit your listening tastes.

This improved remote control is extremely convenient to use. Its buttons can be easily viewed as they illuminate
when functions are preformed. In addition, one button can perform many tasks on this remote because of the
Use and Setup switch, which allows different uses for the same button in the different settings. This remote can
be used to operate a variety of other components simply by recalling the appropriate setup codes or by using
the learning function to teach the remote control new commands. In addition, the multi-operation functions
allow you to perform a variety of operations automatically.
The Energy-saving Design
This unit is designed to use less than 1 W of energy when the receiver is in standby mode.
