It does lots of stuff and doesn't cost a lot.

Delivery between 1-2months

Seems like a very good price. Does 4k and HDR passthrough (hdcp2.2) so good for 4k blu ray via Xbox one S.

Same price @ Richer Sounds and you can get £25 off a set of speakers if bought with this. Good price OP. Hot

No idea if it's a good deal but heat for your descripion

If this had 2 hdmi outputs I would be all over it. Cracking deal though.

Why is this so cheap? Am I missing something here?

Out of interest. Why do you need a 2nd output?

Projector

No WiFi/LAN.

4 hdmi in 1 out, no wifi/lan, 5.1 (not 7.1). so its just the basics but for the price seems decent. Pioneer av amps in the past have been excellent especially for music playback but no idea the quality of this. I've only tried out high end models.

This receiver is fab!

Got one with slightly different model number, dead chuffed.
Been running on 3.2 tho - If anyone has any bright ideas of how to hide the surround cables without pulling up carpet, routing into walls etc, I'm all ears! :smile:

Research dline it's a coloured plastic conduit which sticks to your skirting board etc and looks quite natural.

Are you really running 2 subwoofers BTW? (I. E. 3.2)

Turning down the lights & drinking a beer works for me.

Two outputs are also great if you use your PS4 or Xbox for streaming or disc playback. Lets you set your TV for game mode and also for video playback depending on the input used.

Ah, thanks - will take a look at that. Could be an non-intrusive solution if it looks decent.
And I meant 3.1 (sausage fingers on small touchscreen) - I like bass, but not that much!

lol good description "does lots of stuff" pioneer shoud say that on the features list X)

Usually dispatched within 1 - 2 months.

Was just looking earlier to see if i really needed an AV receiver.....

Thank you OP. I picked this up from RicherSounds in the end and I'm very impressed with it. Sounds so much better than my Sony equivalent.

Says 2 left in stock, but they might be teasing.

I have 2 outputs on my yammy receiver for that reason. I recently purchased a powered HDMI splitter (for another reason) and that is really good to be honest. Worth considering.

Nice find

As a VSX-930 owner the only thing I can fault Pioneer for is their support.
Once they've released a successor they really couldn't care less about their previous model.
Mine was released around July 2015, the last (and only firmware update) was December 2015.

Great kit; but just buy it as it is and don't expect new features to be ever added.

Id rather buy an ONKYO!!!!

At this price I'll take the Pioneer over the "unheard of brand" ;)!

"Unheard of brand" LOL 10/10 for silly comment of the day! Do your research before commenting pal!

Any body know if this would work as an amp for a turntable and passive speakers? Not too clued up obvs. Cheers in advance :wink:

Where is Loughborough Guy when you need him?

No, it doesn't have a phono stage.
You probably want something like this amazon.co.uk/Pio…KPQ
You might not want that exact one, in particular it doesn't have a remote (but then neither do [most..] record players)

Got this paired up with some Jamo speakers, all sounding very nice.

Worth upgrading from a Yamaha RX-V677?

And buy it from B&Q. I bought some online thinking I’d got a bargain. Only to find out it was well cheaper at Bernard and Quetzel.

Yeah it sucks, they want you to buy a new amp every year and so limit any upgrades or new features to new models only when they could often just update the firmware on older models.

Get a £5 powered splitter from eBay, works fine for my setup.

It looks naff in my opinion

whoooooosh!

I guess not everyone knows the history! Such is the notoriety of Loughborough Guy that he can even be found on Google these days! :smile:
And, for the unitiated, the original comment can be found here:-

I guess that's possible... makes me chuckle even to this day :grin:

Not if you have all the picture presets set as well - it makes things so easy have two connections from the amp to the TV. If you never use your PS4/Xbox for BR/Movie playback and don't have a projector, then it is of course a feature that you can ignore. But just being able to press a button on my Harmony remote to switch from Game Mode to Movie Mode makes things just simple.

Amazon cancelled my order as they countl get stock
