i.LINK Digital Interface
The i.LINK interface makes it possible to connect the receiver to i.LINK-equipped components such as a DVD player
with a single cable and enjoy multichannel digital audio from SACD and DVD-A discs (if the player is compatible
with these outputs), as well as digital audio from DVD-Video, CD and Video CD discs.
In addition to simplified connection, jitterless audio is possible with Pioneer’s PQLS* technology when playing DVD-
As, audio CDs and SACDs. By suppressing jitter, deterioration of audio quality is minimized and digital audio of the
highest quality is realized.
*PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) [rate control]
Technology for high-precision transmission of digital audio over the i.LINK interface enabling jitterless digital-to-
analog conversion using a precision quartz in this receiver.
To make this feature work, it is only necessary that this receiver and one rate-control-compatible player are alive on
the i.LINK network.
Other advantages of using i.LINK include ‘smart’ features such as automatic configuration and automatic function
selection—start playback on a i.LINK-equipped component and the receiver automatically selects the component
for input.
Multichannel Acoustic Calibration EQ System (MCACC)
In order to make setting up as easy as possible for users we have created the MCACC system. This unique and
convenient way of getting good surround sound from the receiver makes trouble-free setup a snap. With the
included microphone plugged into the front panel the MCACC system creates a monitoring environment to
establish the parameters of the sound for the specific room you are using. The MCACC system adjusts the
parameters to establish excellent surround sound effects and offers you studio quality home theater sound with
minimum effort.
Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24 and the Latest Audio and Video
Formats
The VSX-AX5i is equipped with Dolby Digital EX decoding, the very latest Dolby Digital contribution to home theater
with surround back speakers in addition to surround speakers. These additional speakers make home theater even
more realistic and powerful. Naturally, you can also play all existing audio formats, including the recently developed
Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS-ES Extended Surround formats on the VSX-AX5i as well. On the video side, the
component video output is fully compatible with high definition, progressive-scan digital video (720p).

USB Audio Hook up
For extra convenience the USB Audio port is a future-oriented connector that allows you to hook a USB-compatible
PC to the receiver.
Audio Scaler (HI BIT/HI SAMPLING)
This new technology enables the user to hear CD and DVD, as well as other soundtracks at a wider dynamic range,
allowing for finer audio reproduction. This Audio Scaler approximates the audio of high end formats just becoming
available now.
The Energy-saving Design
The European model is designed to use 0.8 W of energy when the receiver is in standby mode, while the multi-
voltage model is designed to use 0.9 W.
