Pioneer VSX1018 -7 Channel AV Receiver with HDMI, HD Audio Decoding
and KURO LINK delivering 150W per channel
High definition sight and sound.
Whether you’re watching HDTV, a Blu-ray disc, or
listening to music from your iPod or a USB device, the VSX-1018AH amplifies
pure, precise audio.
The VSX-1018AH offers HDMI (2 in, 1 out) with Deep
Colour. This means that all colour transitions and gradients are reproduced
with the highest level of precision. What you see is as natural and lifelike
as possible.
Enjoy your digital music collection, too. Plug and
play your MP3 player via the USB-in or connect your iPod directly. The main
benefit is that the connection is digital, which guarantees transfer without
intermediate digital-to-analogue, analogue-to-digital conversions; what you
hear is pure.
The VSX-1018AH includes our unique 9-band MCACC
system, which stands for Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration. At the touch of a
button, the MCACC will analyse your room environment and optimally tune the
system. The result sounds like a professional recording engineer has
fine-tuned your system.
Another feature of MCACC is Phase Control. Phase
Control calibrates possible frequency delay and aligns the phase within each
speaker individually, as well as between all your speakers. What you hear is
as true to the original source as possible.
The VSX-1018AH is the perfect partner for Blu-ray
discs. Built-in Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, guarantee pure,
“lossless” quality audio.
With THX Select2 Plus certification, you can expect
the best possible sound reproduction using 7 channels, whether you’re
watching, listening or playing.
The system allows flexible speaker placement. The
‘Front Stage Surround Advance’ feature gives you the option to place your
speakers in the traditional 5.1 surround setting around your living room, or
alternatively place them alongside your television. This is ideal if you have
limited space, or want to avoid an “invasion” of electronics equipment around
the room.
