Nye Pioneer VSX-8/9/1019

Så er der kommet nyt om de nye pioneer modeller som kommer på markedet, og det ser ud til at det bliver til en rimelige penge.

"Normally I don't get excited about receivers, but Pioneer's new line, starting at $300, have an iPod Digital USB connection that goes beyond plug-and-play access to deliver audio digitally—including DRM content—for super sweet sound quality.

Normally what comes from a docked iPod is analog sound that the iPod itself converted. In this case, the $300 VSX-819H (or $400 VSX-919AH and $500 VSX-1019AH) looks right into the iPod or iPhone storage, and decodes the audio data using bigger better digital-to-analog converters, and can even get at the DRM content because of the smart USB connection.

The 110-watt 5-channel 819H decodes Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, and has the microphone-equipped room calibration with EQ, which Pioneer has had for a few years on higher-end receivers. The 120-watt 7-channel 919AH has an advanced version of this that is said to optimize a room with "meticulous fine tuning." It also adds analog-to-HDMI up-conversion of video sources, which is useful for one-cable connection to the TV. The 1019AH does the same thing, only with a Faroudja 1080p video scaler for super awesome up-conversion. "
