Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great Receiver, good front presence, good power and deep detail.

Finally available. I checked I think everyday for this receiver to become available. At one point I could buy it directly from Pioneer, but who wants to do that? I upgraded for my Pioneer Elite that was only a few years old so that I could run my Xbox Series X through the Elite. Make sure you set that HDMI to 8k in order for the Series X to display 4K @ 120hz. This is a nice unit. It seems to run a bit cooler than my prior SC-LX701.

Excellent installation service. Paying the bill at the store was "questionabl" for a technology store. I'm still watching closely my account.

Great receiver from a long lasting company pioneer. But the sound was a bit lacking, no punch. Also they removed once of my favorite feature for listening to movies at night. They replaced with a different option but makes no difference. The constant going back and forth adjusting your setting just to listen to moves depending on the day is a hassel.

Great sound, easy to set up, wonderful Atmos receiver.

High quality Would like more than 3 zone capability

What a score to find this open box - it’s fantastic and makes my home truly in to a theatre

Amazing receiver for the price. Great sound and picture. Using as 7.2.4 with second amp for surround back channels. Paired with the JVC DLA NP5 projector this is an incredible hone theater.

I love it it has all that I want in an Avr reciever; good neat sound when I listen music & I watch a movie its like I am in a movie theater also also I have enough room for expand it for many years. The over all I am very happy I got this receiver

loving the sound i get off this receiver match made in heaven for my klipsch speaker system. big change from my old entry level pioneer elite lx101 . day and night difference in clarity.

Should cost under $1000. Sound quality is good. Dirac live is nice User interface is outdated. Not being able to choose the crossover frequency for individual channels sucks!!

A good receiver if you need it. I upgraded to this from an old Pioneer Elite 1080p receiver. This one isn’t much different except that it supports 4k / 8k and 9.2 channel surround. One annoying thing is that it randomly wakes up, which my old receiver didn’t do.

The perfect balance of everything you need in a high end receiver. Pioneer is the GOAT for home theater!

Set up was easy using the set up menu and the sound quality is amazing!!

Overall a great amp... dirac seemed to work very well.

I’m happy with item. Good sound. It was recommended to me and I am happy with the results.

Bought this for a office with several rooms for music and does the job very nice

This unit is everything I need, it has all up to date movie surround formats. I had Denon and Marantz receivers before this one and I think the difference is Dirac mic setup. It sounds very dynamic.

Very happy with this Pioneer Elite 505 receiver, great sound and so many features.

Awesome feature packed receiver. It was easy to setup and sounds fantastic. Sound and video quality through this receiver is amazing. I did had an initial problem with video and sound through BD/DVD input but instructions say try a disconnect and power recycle and it worked. Video is outstanding, even non-4k Blurays look really good on my OLED TV.
