Synchronised Sound with Phase Control
When amplifying multi-channel audio signals, receivers use a
Low Pass Filter (LPF) to process low-frequency signals for
subwoofer output. This causes phase shift of the low-frequency
signals compared to the main channel signals, and the delayed
bass makes the sound lack synchronisation. Pioneer's Phase Control
technology effectively eliminates phase lag and reproduces clearer mid-
and high-range sound. You can feel the bass vibrating the air and deeper
voices in films, and the groove of the performer in music content.
The "Phase Control" Compensates for the Delay of Low-Frequency Sound

Front USB Input

connectivity enables you to easily play music files.

HD Master Audio surround soundtracks, letting

entertainment from Bluray Discs. The lossless codecs
are bit-for-bit identical to the studio master.
Enjoy Quality Sound from Compressed Audio
The Advanced Sound Retriever restores the output of
compressed audio such as WMA, AAC, and MP3,
