Pioneer VSX834 80W 7.2Ch AV Reciever

Make your home cinema sound much more like the real thing, with the Dolby Atmos-equipped Pioneer VSX-834. Dolby Atmos (5.2.2) uses ceiling or upwards firing speakers to produce a multi-dimensional, immersive sound that's a match for the multiplex. DTS:X literally pushes the boundaries of what you can expect from home cinema. This highly sophisticated processor renders images in three dimensions that conventional processing can't match. If extra ceiling or upwards firing speakers are impractical then try DTS Virtual:X. This gives a good impression of extra height without the extra speakers. With a punchy 165 watts (at 6 ohms) per channel, the Pioneer VSX-834 has easily enough grunt for delivering immersive cinema sound in all but the largest rooms. More than just powerful, the VSX-834 is about quality, too. Using a 384kHz/32-bit AKM DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) at its heart, this AV receiver takes full advantage of high resolution movie soundtracks and music. Featuring four HDMI inputs and an output to your TV, the VSX834 is ready to handle all your HD sources. Compatible with HDR10, HLG, BT.2020, HDCP2.2 and Dolby Vision, the HDMI sockets won’t restrict the sound and vision from your sources. Ideal for HDR games consoles, UHD Blu-ray and 4K HDR set-top TV boxes, this AV receiver is ready for them all. Despite packing a lot of tech in, the VSX834 is easy to set-up and use. Pioneer's unique MCACC (Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration) system tunes the amplifier to the size of listening room and speaker placement, at the touch of a button. Phase Control technology means a cohesive sound between the speakers, wherever you choose to place them in the room. Slimmer than the previous model, the VSX834 is easier to fit into your cabinet or rack. The sleek design also has a minimal button count, making it more intuitive to use as well as easier on the eye. Treat yourself to the immersive sound of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, with the top-value Pioneer VSX-834.
