I couldn't be happier !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great receiver Works well glad it’s blue tooth ready

Works great, love that it hooks up to many devices

Bought this and had it maybe 2 years and the sound went out to 2 of my 4 back speakers then every Hdmi port on it but 1 went out not long after. Had BestBuy send it off and it couldn't be fixed so I got a full refund. When it worked it sounded good at least. Now I have to track down something different. Waste of money.

The stereo works great, however surprised Best Buy asked me to review the item seeing how I was completely dissatisfied that I paid $30 more for this item than was marked on the box. During the covid19 pandemic, the only way you could purchase items was to order online and see if it was in stock at the store. I did this and ended up paying $30 buck more than the sticker price. Still no response from Best Buy. Lousy customer service.

I had the gig guys out and they said that the unit was not working. It would reset to factory setting every time you shut it down. I returned it.

This unit failed to drive my klipsch reference powered subs. I returned it and purchased the Denon AVR540 deck.

Selected this model because it's one of few short enough to fit in shelf space we have for it and needed an amplified zone b output. Running only 2.1 speakers. HDMI pass thru works better than I was expecting going in. Every resolution tried from 480 to 2160 are passed thru as-is without any processing/scaling/impact on image quality. Tried 4:4:4 10bit, 4k, 4k HDR. All modes worked without issues. Can even still use HDMI with the AVR switched off which is nice. CEC pass-thru works great as well. The only issue I noticed is when powering off TV media box connected to AVR suspends as expected yet when turning TV back on media box does not wakeup by itself. I had to disable suspend in media system for this reason. Works when AVR is bypassed so must be a bug or compatibility issue with this unit. The three recordable setting presets accessible from unit and remote are really nice idea to capture input, volume, a+b modes..etc. Unfortunately storage of volume setting is inexplicably limited to -32 dB which is way TOO LOW and completely defeats the point in having presets. It takes far longer to readjust volume levels than it does simply to manually press the buttons necessary to reconfigure inputs each time. Nobody here likes volume scale -xx dB to +xx dB... too strange seeing numbers going down before they go up.. you get used to it but there should be a setting for normal volume scale using entirely positive whole numbers like virtually every other product with a volume control knob I've ever owned in my entire life. Automatic speaker calibration as far as I can tell did a good job with eq and phase matching. Yet have bookshelf speakers it made them large which turns the sub into a paperweight unless watching movies with an LFE channel. Had to manually set speakers small and calibrate sub levels myself with a meter because setup couldn't do it. Sounds awesome in the end sub for the first time feels like it has been blended perfectly with speakers. Enabling USB power on standby causes unit to consume over 20 watts continuously when switched off so don't use the USB port for power. Otherwise power consumption in standby with HDMI pass thru (eco) is well under a watt when TV switched off as expected. Noticed rarely seemingly random single relay clicks when the unit is on while playing ac3. Not really an issue or annoying but strange. This unit looks great, works well so far and sounds awesome. Way better than I was expecting going in.

I have been through many receivers over the years and I have kept record of them, yet this particular Pioneer model is nothing short of an EXCELLENT ACCOMPLISHMENT! This piece of equipment is phenomenal and exciting, and I am proud to have it!! It has the unique ability in separating the tone of your CD Audio, your Video tone, your intelligent Streaming tone or your radio tune! It additionally has the ability of incorporating many of the numerous popular audio technologies that do not nearly count on just compatability anymore, as if EVERYTHING DOES BELONG AND WORK-OFF OF WHAT IS WITH IT! This receiver synchronizes your favorite beats with the prettiest and most powerful speakers and subs. Plus, should you desire to install wireless surround systems or subwoofer accommodating tones . . .not only will this allow it, but it will sound great!!

My TV is LG model D55u-D1. Not a new model. I have had three 3 different major name brand receivers before this one. All of them had connection issues that I couldn't solve. The Pioneer for some reason just worked with no hassle. Also it is puts out lively sound that I have enjoyed so far.
