CES 2009

For the indecisive consumer, Pioneer just made your life a whole lot harder. The company unveiled a new lineup of A/V receivers at CES for every budget, need, and desire. As one of the first companies to deliver iPhone and iPod certification in its AVRs, Pioneer focused on the growing populace of iPhone and iPod users in its new group. The top new models (including the VSX-919AH and VSX-1019AH) employ this certification, and each one includes features that bring out the best in your iPhone or iPod. One of these new features includes a full color graphic user interface with album art and information. This way you’ll be able to see exactly what you are listening to.

Pioneer’s new AVRs also offer a host of features for the non-iPod enthusiast as well. Each one still provides plenty of home theater-worthy features like multi-zone audio, Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC), and support for the Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio formats. Pricing for the new line of iPhone and iPod-compatible A/V receivers has not been announced yet.
