why not wait for VSX1018? New HD formats, HDMI and also decent power 150w x 7.., one think i wanna know is how good is LX70 if compare to VSX1018..not much different in power rating though but the price different is huge.. shocking.gif

Well,

For one thing .. de price of 3k+ is expensive..

663 is ard 2k n my lobang for de 7002 (if it cums thru) is a little above tat ..

Besides japanese avrs are not tat accurate when quotin power when all channels driven n all tat nos mean squat to me - remember i still hv my trusty 985..

Hi,
I own an entry Pioneer avr Vsx517s and so far very satisfy with it performance but there are some features of the avr that i am still confused with like :

Sound Retriever: Turn on this feature when playing MP3/cd can notice vast improvement on Bass and Treble, I wonder do I really need this function on when listening to cd?

Phase Control: Can't really notice any improvement when turn on to this feature but according to the spec it will make the sound nicer..maybe i need to try listen to slower or sentimental songs to feel the different.

Loudness/Midnight mode: Do I really need this mode? Well i can definitely hear more bass when loudness is on.. smile.gif

Well my current setting for my AVR is only Phase Control on and other features off..

Any Pioneer's Avr owner here mind to share your opinions on these features are most welcome..thank you... smile.gif

I just get my VSX-518 for RM700.

I don't like sound retriever (turn it on just like add Ajinamoto to the song) and also the phase control (the bass become tight).


Btw...pioneer seems not popular in LYN since there is no pioneer owner club here whistling.gif

I have a Pioneer cassette desk from the 80's; top of the range at that time.
Not used for the last 15 years; do you think it is still repairable?

I'm using Pioneer Elite (from US) Receiver with pioneer 969 Flagship DVD player. Use I-Link for audio esp. SACD, DVD_A & MP3, better sound compare with analoq cable (Van den hull).

I have 2 unit Pioneer 969 Universal Player. If anybody interested want let go one unit to upgrade with BR player maybe PS3 160GB.
