Innovations for Superior Sound

Phase Control ??? An Innovation for Multi-Channel Sound Compensation (VSX-1018AH, VSX-918V, VSX-818V, VSX-518)

When amplifying multi-channel audio signals, receivers use

Low Pass Filter (LPF) for processing low-frequency signals for subwoofer output. This extra process causes ???phase lag???, or approximately 5 msec delay of low-frequency signals with

respect to those of main channels. The delayed bass affects the quality of main-channel sound and makes the sound lack synchronisation.

Pioneer's latest A/V receivers incorporate original Phase Control technologies, which apply a new bass management system to effectively compensate for the phase lag between subwoofer channel and the main channels. This significantly improves the multi-channel sound without any extra operation.

The "Phase Control" Compensates for the Delay of Low-Frequency Sound

USB Connection for iPod and USB Devices (VSX-1018AH, VSX-918V, VSX-818V)

You can easily enjoy music from iPod and other USB devices by plugging the cable into the front USB terminal. The lossless digital transfer provides high- quality sound for your music. Your iPod or USB device can be operated with the remote control and OSD display.

PHASE CONTROL

Create an Ideal Acoustic Environment with Ease ??? with MCACC (Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration System) (VSX-1018AH, VSX-918V, VSX-818V)

MCACC allows you to duplicate the acoustic environment of the mixing studio, where recordings and soundtracks are mixed and mastered. With the

Pioneer A/V receivers, the system ??? complete with a microphone ??? compensates for

differences in speaker size, speaker level, and speaker distance, and equalises response with 9-Band (VSX-1018AH) or 5-Band (VSX-918V, VSX-818V) EQ, all automatically.

Auto Level Control Volume Management System

(VSX-1018AH, VSX-918V, VSX-818V, VSX-518)

The new feature equalises volume level differences between tracks when playing from iPod or other portable audio players. The playback volume is maintained at a consistent level, so there is no need to make adjustments for each song.

Advanced Sound Retriever (Restores the quality of compressed audio) (VSX-1018AH, VSX-918V, VSX-818V, VSX-518)

The units come with the Advanced Sound Retriever, which significantly improves the sound quality of compressed audio ??? such as WMA, MPEG-4 AAC, and MP3 ??? to the

level of CD sound. This Pioneer-exclusive technology applies a special algorithm to restore the signals in barely audible ranges, which are eliminated during the compression process.

The output transistors feature lower base capacitors than the previous model, realising wider range of current drive stage. The module has also decreased in size, and the smaller feedback loop minimises influences from the noise. Parts have been carefully selected, such as the power amplifier capacitors chosen by listening tests, and the pre-amp IC which minimises the signal path in Direct mode.
