Features

 

High quality MOSFET design

 

This receiver offers high-quality discrete MOSFET 
configuration unique to Pioneer for low distortion, and 
generates equal amplifier power to all channels, 
eliminating the possibility of one channel dominating a 
particular sound field. 

 

Easy setup using Multichannel Acoustic 

Calibration (MCACC)

 

Setting up for home theater sound is as easy as 
connecting your speakers, a DVD player or other source, 
and your TV. The Auto Surround Setup provides a quick 
but accurate surround sound setup, while for complete 
surround sound control you still have access to the full 
range of surround sound settings. 

 

THX Select certified design

 

This receiver bears the THX Select logo, which means it 
has passed a rigorous series of quality and performance 
tests covering every aspect of the product. This includes 
testing of pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance 
and operation, and hundreds of other parameters in both 
the digital and analog domain, making your home 
theater experience as faithful as possible to what the 
director intended. 

 

Dolby Digital and DTS decoding, including Dolby 

Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS 96/24 and DTS-ES

 

Dolby Digital and DTS decoding brings theater sound 
right into your home with up to six channels of surround 
sound, including a special LFE (Low Frequency Effects) 
channel for deep, realistic sound effects.

The built-in Dolby Pro Logic IIx and DTS Neo:6 decoders 
not only provide full surround sound decoding for Dolby 
Surround sources, but will also generate convincing 
surround sound for any stereo source.

Also, with the addition of a surround back speaker, you 
can take advantage of the built-in Dolby Digital EX and 
DTS-ES decoders for six-channel surround sound.

 

Seamless video conversion

 

With the Pioneer video converter, you can use a wide 
range of cables interchangeably, giving you more 
flexibility when making video connections.

 

Easy-to-use LCD remote control 

 

The remote control gives you not only complete control 
over every function of this receiver, but also over the main 
functions for other components in your home theater 
system. Using a system of preset codes, you can 
program the remote to operate a wide range of other 
equipment.
