Positv: Very good sound for calibration
Control via mobile phone is possible with some difficulty, but then works quite reliably.
Negatives: -The Support is at Pioneer as long friendly to one practices justified criticism of their products !!!
-It Is unacceptable that a modern digital amplifier, which precisely in the switched, unstressed condition significantly less power
should consume as a well over 10-year-old analog AVR (Technics SA-DX940), 60Watt (5.1 mode) draws from a can !!!
(This opinion was, moreover, the support, when he was still friendly.)
First of all then when Pioneer bodied advertises a low power consumption. I am of the opinion that the Pioneer before
recent firmware update has added significantly less power in the range of 40W (stereo mode and now 50w).
The really low power consumption in the unloaded condition, the greatest advantage of a digital amplifier, which here Pioneer
is playful frivolous. This actually heavily featured in advertisements Pioneer "advantage" was also one of my main reasons for purchase.
-Continue Leagues a few annoying bug in the firmware of the receiver. The Pioneer consumes 60W with current firmware 5.1
and 50W in Stereo mode. Choosing the Steremodus manually works, the stereo mode from Pioneer is automatically
selected (Auto Surround) this energy saving function does not work!
-The Included AX7031 Ethernet to Wireless LAN adapter is relatively slow, a complete restart after configuration takes part far
over 5 minutes. The restart of the de-energized state is but less than 25s. Furthermore, the device appears to be an extremely high
Causing delay in calling sites. (Use to test on a laptop via Ethernet - ax7031 - router)
Furthermore, the firmware is faulty, gets a HP laptop on the same network for some reason from the AX7031 a
DNS assigned IP address, how is that possible, is a complete mystery to me, because actually hangs still the router in between.
(Probably an isolated case)
Since only the actual device manufacturer provides a working and fast firmware, I guess technically skilled users on
To update your own risk it. (Edimax BR-6258n careful [...])
Pioneer I expect the effect is not much help.
-The Network functionality is only safe when there is no problem with the router, so my A1 Telekom router (Pirelli) has
constantly jumbled the IP addresses so that the app on the phone often has difficulties in finding the AVR.
The app is not entirely error-free. The connection is only permanently safe if the permanently assigned in the Router IP
Address enters into the app (IcontrolAV5). The app is virtually unable to find the AVR automatically, often occurs during

Disconnections come. errorCode: B27102
Therefore, IP fixed and enter the router in the app, and there are no problems. I still Android 4.0.4, maybe
is because the error. The new ASUS router it now works with DHCP so no fixed IP address in the router is the IP
nevertheless permanently equal (even after reboot or firmware update of the router), but you have to give the app a fixed IP.
-Unfortunately One of the HDMI inputs SAT / CBL is now broken so I need now exchange the unit for a short time.
I hope then to get an error-free device.
