INFORMATION


(+) Control with HDMI
Put simply, KURO LINK means that you are able to control basic functions of compatible Pioneer Audio/Visual devices* (such as your Blu-ray player, amplifier or DVD recorder), with your KURO flat-screen TV remote control.

One remote for your full entertainment system.

KURO LINK is made possible via the single HDMI cable connection between your flat-screen TV and your other entertainment devices.

* Other brands of TV and home entertainment components also work with the KURO LINK function

(+) Deep Colour Deep Colour ensures that all colour transitions and gradients are reproduced with the highest level of precision.

It enables increased contrast ratio, eliminates on-screen colour banding (for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colours) and can represent many times more shades of gray between black and white.

(+) MCACC  (MCACC stands for Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration System)
It's an automatic sound field adjustment system that enables you to precision-tune your system to your living room, just like a sound professional, but with minimum effort.

A microphone monitors the sound environment and an equaliser (either 5 or 9-band, depending on which model of amplifier you have) optimally adjusts the sound parameters.

The result sounds like a professional recording engineer has fine-tuned your amplifier or home cinema system.

MCACC was created as a joint effort between Pioneer and professional sound engineers at AIR Studios; it's unique to Pioneer, so you won't find it on any other products.

(+) AIR Studio Sound Tuning
The best sound engineers at one of the best recording studios in the world contributed an unquestionable amount of expertise to Pioneer's latest revolutionary multi-channel stereophonic amplifier/receivers. AIR Studios founder is Sir George Martin, legendary Beatles producer and Academy Award-nominated composer, one of music's most versatile and imaginative talents.

Established in 1969 in London, AIR Studios is now a state-of-the-art recording complex with matchless facilities for film scoring, rock, pop, classical and orchestral work, postproduction and live events. Many of the world's most popular and renowned musical talents have worked in this unique and inspirational recording environment.

Surround Sound Formats
Surround Modes (+) 3 (Relaxing, Exciting, Vivid)

• Advanced Music: Duplicates the acoustics of a large concert hall.

• Advanced Movie: Reproduces a mid-size movie theatre environment.

• Expanded Theater: Adds more depth to Dolby Surround sources, while allowing faithful reproduction of 5-channel speaker sound.

• Game mode: Enhances video game sound.

• TV Surround Mode: Produces surround sound from mono or stereo TV sources.

• Sports mode: Gives the impression of being in the middle of a sports stadium.

• Virtual surround back: Surround sound becomes even more impressive. You can now experience 6.1 surround sound with a 5.1 speaker set-up. Just switch to Virtual Sourround Back mode, and the left and right rear satellite speakers will create a phantom sound source behind you. So it sounds as if there were speakers there, involving you in the surround experience even more than before.

• Phones Surround: Phones Surround reproduces overall surround sound for headphone listening.

• Real Phantom: For people who don't want to set a centre speaker in their room, this mode generates a distinct centre sound image by adopting the latest HRTF (Head Related Transfer Function). The resulting sound is extremely close to that of when a centre speaker is used.

•  Advanced Cinema: The Advanced Cinema mode is a newly designed system for enhancing movie soundtracks and other audio-visual sources that optimizes its effects in accordance with your source, Listening ch Select and speaker configuration. There are six Advanced Cinema settings that use DSP (Digital Signal Processing) to create different types of sound environments.

- Action:
This mode is designed for action movies, which generally use lots of sound effects. The mode enriches the sound to make it more realistic and extends the parameters to pick up high and low sound effects.

- Musical:
This mode is primarily for music and adds a spacious feeling to the sound. A long delay time of reflected sounds provides resonant tones which emulate a concert hall.

- Drama:
This mode is designed for movies with a lot of dialog. The elements of dialog are enhanced, making the characters seem more real. The mode also compresses the dynamic range somewhat so loud sounds do not overpower softer ones.

- SCI-FI:
This mode is designed for science fiction movies. It creates a broad sound space, separating dialog from sound effects to heighten the overall impact of the soundtrack.

- Monofim:
This mode is designed for older movies which are recorded with mono soundtracks. The special sound processing of this mode will allow you to experience these movies in surround sound even though they were not recorded that way originally.

- 5-D/7-D Theatre:
(The display changes to 5-D or 7-D depending on the sources, Listening ch Select and speaker configurations.) This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to stereo sources. The overall effect builds a dynamic and broad sound space, allowing two-channel (stereo) signals to faithfully imitate a five speaker sound. The mode should be used in conjunction with Dolby Pro Logic for sources bearing the Dolby Surround mark.


•  Advanced Concert: The Advanced Concert (Digital Signal Processing) modes allow you to transform your living room into a variety of different sonic environments when playing either two-channel or multichannel sources. It optimizes its effects in accordance with your speaker configuration, source and Listening ch Select choice.

- Classical:
Simulates the acoustic effects of a large concert hall. Suitable for classical music. A long delay time of reflected sounds, coupled with reverb effects, let the listener experience the dynamic and rich sounds characteristic of concert halls and powerful orchestral performances.

- Chamber:
Simulates the acoustic environment of a very resonant concert hall. Rich reverberation and a full sound create the impression of a lively performance space.

- Jazz:
Simulates the acoustic effects of a jazz club. Reflected sound is virtually below 100 msec so that the listener can experience a live band effect.

- Rock:
Simulates the acoustic effects of a mid-sized concert hall. The listener can experience a live band effect with good separation of the instruments, a strong bass and the vivid feeling of a live performance.

- Dance:
Simulates the acoustic effects of a dance club. Features a strong bass sound. Reflected sound delay time is virtually below 50 msec, for the listener to experience the visceral power of dance music.

- 5/7 Channel Stereo:
Simulates the acoustic environment of a regular stereo while using all the speakers in the system to induce a rich, all-around sound.


• Dialogue Enhancement: Enhances centre channel reproduction during action sequences so that the dialogue stands out from other background sounds. This mode also positions dialogues and vocals, usually located in the centre channel, between the two front speakers even if the actual centre speaker is above or below the TV.
This happens by applying EQ to the centre channel, taking out the middle frequencies with a band pass filter, and distributing them to the speakers on either side. When the front speakers are at the same level as the TV, the enhanced dialogue will appear to be coming from the TV.

Audio Features
Bass/Treble Tone Controls
Digital Noise Reduction (+) 
New noise reduction technology keeps sound pristine as it comes from each source. Digital filtering analyses signal output from each separate frequency band, then attenuates noise in each band to an optimal level. In this way, only signal band noise that detracts from overall sound is suppressed, without degrading any dynamic characteristics of the original sound.
Loudness (+) 
The Loudness mode boosts the bass and treble in a signal. It is useful for listening to music at low volumes.
Muting
Advanced Sound Retriever (+)
