  • So far, so good...
I've had this unit hooked up for about a month now. Took a month or so after receiving it to get it hooked up, but I digress... Anyway, I bought it to replace a Yamaha receiver from 2005. That receiver came out a year or two before HDMI became the standard digital hook up. In fact, remember the DVI hook ups that came out before that that didn't even have sound transmission within the cord? Well, this old receiver could do uncompressed audio, such as DolbyTrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, but only thru the analog RCA hookups. I tried and used that early on, but it lacked punch for some reason. I read somewhere that the receiver lowers the LFE channel output whenever you run it that way. So I quit that and just ran my Blu-ray audio thru the fiber optic line. Of course you can't get uncompressed audio thru those so for the last 14 years or so (I upgraded to Blu-ray in 2009, iirc) I have only been hearing lossy audio on my Blus. Well, wow...now that I have this new Pioneer unit, paired with a new Sony 4K player (this was the reason for the upgrade of the receiver...my old Oppo BDP-103 laser eye died on me about 2 months before this post), I am finally able to enjoy all the high end audio codecs the way they were meant to sound. I also had to buy a new powered sub as most receivers require that now. (The Yamaha's sub was powered thru the receiver.) The new sub is a 150W total power Sony sub with additional speaker hook ups of its own. And oh man, it's much better than my old sub. It's crisp and it puts out precise bass in whatever it's trying to do. But anyway, enough about all that. How's this Pioneer receiver Amp? Well, like the title says...so far, so good. I've got it hooked up to my TV with just the HDMI ARC input/output. The only things I have hooked to the receiver is the previously mentioned Sony 4K player, and a DISH Joey, which I rarely use, but just for a little bit of morning news and some History Channel shows. What I like about the receiver and the ARC channel input is that it automatically detects whatever device that's sending AV signals. To switch to my player, all I have to do is hit Play on the remote. Automatically switches to the BD/DVD input. If I select a Smart App on my TV, if Automatically switches to the TV input via the ARC. However, for it to automatically detect the satellite receiver, it has to be on, and not in stand-by mode. And even then, I may have to manually cycle between the TV and Cable/Sat inputs on the remote for it to pick up the Sat output. Weird if ask me. Problem is that I used to have the DISH input shown as an "App" on the TV and could select it with my TV remote. Now because I'm running the ARC mode, it's not there as everything is run thru the receiver. Now then, about the sound quality. Well, once you figure out all the different listening modes, it's pretty damn good. For regular DTS HD-MA tracks, you can select DTS: Neural: X and DTS Virtual: X, and it'll give you pseudo Dolby Atmos if you have the "Virtual Speaker" setting turned on in the main menu. It will create a more expansive sound field than your standard DTS HD-MA track, especially if it's front heavy. I think it loses a tiny bit of LFE punch when you do that, but not much. I'm currently watching the newly released "The Expanse" Complete Series blu-ray set and setting it to DTS Virtual: X sure does make a difference, as the regular DTS HD - MA track is a bit front heavy. Those extra surround bits always help to immerse you in the on screen action. Now then, the Dolby Atmos stuff...WOW... even with my standard 5.1 speaker set-up, the sound field is just incredible. Was watching the SW:TPM and the Pod Race and final Duel of Fates scenes were extremely satisfying from the 4K disc. The Duel of Fates fight still holds up today, especially with Dolby Atmos backing. The sabers sound like they're twirling all around you. And Darth Maul never looked better in 4K. Awesome detail in his face. Watched my standard Saving Private Ryan blu-ray with just DTS-HD MA and even it sounded great. Heard things in it that I haven't heard since I saw it in theaters in 1998. Top Gun: Maverick and Mad Max: Fury Road with their Dolby Atmos tracks were also very incredible. So yeah, if you're looking for a good 4K compatible receiver with all the new sound codecs, this is a good one if 100W per channel works for you. ... show more

  • Great Budget AV Receiver
I had an aging Panasonic home theater in a box set-up that was about 25 years old when it met its demise as a result of a brown out during a lightning storm. Since the speakers were still fine I started looking into a basic AV receiver to drive them and restore my basic home theater experience. This was about the most basic (least expensive) 5.1 receiver I could find. I can’t compare it to the top of the line equipment, but I can tell you this unit exceeds my expectations. I tried the automatic set-up, but was ultimately satisfied with setting it up to my personal preferences. I use it primarily with a cable box, which I know is not the most modern set-up but wanted to provide appropriate context to my assessment. I have a small room that this system sits in (17x14) and it does a great job with movies and is a substantial upgrade to my lightning-fried system. I suspect it has substantial upside if paired with better speakers, but I’m in no hurry, the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park sound pretty awesome just the way it is. ... show more

  • Works Great until is Quits
Purchased in March 2022 for summer home. I was only using one HDMI input (it has 4), the input quit in September 2022. I contacted support who provided me with a work-around but failed to provide info on warranty repairs. Returned in early March 2023 and soon remembered that Pioneer never provided instructions for warranty repair. Before finally working through their system the 1-year warranty date had passed. I assumed that since they were notified of the problem before warranty expiration that was not a problem...but they made it a problem. I was told to explain the issue to their warranty repair contractor. They stated that no warranty repair was allowed unless they received the unit before warranty expiration. I don't know if the problem with this amp was bad luck with a good product or not; however, I do know that Pioneer does everything possible to avoid warranty repairs. They owe me a repair/replacement for this unit. If I am ever successful in having them repair/replace the unit, they will surely will continue to provide enough obstacles so that the time required to recover under the warranty will exceed any value recovered. Update 4/6/23 Pioneer was notified in October 2022 and in early March 2023 of this problem. They kept putting me off sending reply's with web cites that were not relevant. I demanded a warranty repair on March 21, 2023, the last day of the warranty. They failed to respond until April 3, 2023, to tell me sorry. your warranty has expired. Apparently timely informing them that there is a problem is not sufficient to maintain the warranty. ... show more
