The third reason is the Zone 2, originally designed to provide a separate room with music. This has easily handled my old Sony. Pioneer, as well as all other manufacturers (eg Onkyo) have built a barrier here. Any digital contents can not be transferred to the boxes attached to Zone 2. What am I supposed that it can not tell. Now I finally have everything digital (HDMI) and now that As said other vendors do this so be it.
Ultimately, I have kept the receiver but now! Why it. Especially the remote control for the iPod! The Pioneer App is great, it can thus serve (when you finally risen behind ..) everything. The sound is great too! Beautiful is also that the iPods of our family can provide the AV receiver directly with music.
From me, there are just 4 of 5 stars. The deduction will be for the really bad remote control and the lack of a simple guide. I The lack of Zone 2 feature now not rated (all other Herstelle make this ultimately yes, exactly so) .. otherwise there would have been only 3 stars.
