Awesome AVR and the DIRAC Live auto tuning makes audio sound amazing

Great reciever very pleased gonna get speakers for it on black Friday deal thanks

Love my Pioneer Elite VSX LX 505 very easy to set up and comes with Dirac

Really good receiver. Extremely happy with the sound quality

Currently only have it setup running 2 ourdoor klipsch speakers . Use app to turn on and off ,switch songs in spotify, volune control. It runs flawless n sounds just aa good as the denon it replaced . Without the buggy denon s960 wifi issues .

Seamless and versatile. Best buy techs did a great job at set up. Easy controls to adjust every setting and achieve the full dolby experience

Receiver is great. I had an old Pioneer Elite receiver and this is definitely an upgrade from the old model. Bluetooth and network capabilities make it a perfect home theater receiver.

Works very well for the money. Happy holidays to all

This receiver does a great job! It has multiple ways to set up room correction, can power a good amount of speakers, and makes my home theater sound better. EARC works well for getting Atmos from the TV's apps to the speakers. I am happy with this purchase.

Bought this for the HDMI 2.1 capabilities. Its easy to setup and work perfectly. Make sure you test your HDMI cables if youre having HDMI 2.1 issues.

Works perfectly with the new speakers indoors as well outdoors

This unit put out a great sound in my theater room

Updated my home theater. Receiver sounds great. One complaint, there’s an issuing switching to watching blu rays, sometimes no sound.

Many sound options to choose from. Great for watching movies. Recommend it.

Best receiver from Pioneer I have had yet. The features are outstanding and make my Klipsch speakers sound great!

Very happy with my purchase, great sound system! I recommend this receiver to all.

I too got this instead of the Onkyo TX-RZ50. I took it back and cancelled my Onkyo pre-order. The features on paper seem great. I bout a UMIK-1 microphone and boom for the Dirac calibration and did the full 17 position tuning tuning. The sound had good timing but was way too bright. I played with Dirac curves for hours trying to improve that and never found a sound anywhere close to my old Denon x4100. The Pioneer sound was harsh on the ears and just didn’t fill the room well at all. The sound was flat rather than three dimensional. I watched movies with this and them swapped back to my Denon, and the winner was clear. I hate it because this receiver has so many features. And I thought it was a major upgrade at over 60% higher cost than my Denon. By the way I tried both the amplified connections and tried the preouts with an external amplifier, no major change in the issues I’m talking about. I was so excited to snag one of these but ultimately super disappointed. I have a couple Pioneer Elite receivers I love and am not sure what happened. The sound on this one is clean but cold and kind of shrill.

It performed very well and powered all of the speakers very well which the old receiver did not.

Great system, really drives the speakers in my theater room.

A Very good AV receiver, But very complicated for an average person. The options and controls for set ups are kind of over whelming, the manual in the English version is over 200 pages. I used it for sending audio to 2 rooms and expandable.
