... 1 Channel A V Receiver Last month Ara picked up an Apple TV for use in his media room...
... That became the fourth HDMI device which was one device too many for his Yamaha RX-V2700 receiver...
... So he contacted Pioneer to see if he could review the Pioneer VSX-94TXH 7...
... 1 A V Receiver...
... In actuality, Ara was auditioning the receiver for his own personal use...
... Within a few days the receiver showed up and it's not going back...
... Just so everyone is clear, Ara has to pay for the receiver to keep it...
... For nothing more than clarification we asked Pioneer what this was, this is their explanation: The Pioneer Elite A V receivers each feature power amps for seven channels...
... Setup Setup was as straight forward as it can be when introducing a new receiver into your system...
... The only complication was using an HDMI to DVI cable between the Mac Mini and the receiver...
... Since the DVI cable does not carry audio, the optical output of the Mini was connected to the DVD input of the receiver...
... In general we like the flexibility the receiver has in assigning inputs and outputs...
... After everything was routed we ran the Pioneer auto calibration to tune the room...
... Most mid range and up receivers have some form of auto calibration...
... To start the process you connect an included microphone to an input on the front of the receiver and place it in the area you want the sound optimized for...
... The receiver will output a series of tones and measure the response at the microphone to find the optimal settings for your room...
... On some receivers we've felt compelled to go in and manually tweak the final results...
... Not so with the Pioneer, the system accurately determined the size and distance of the speakers and was able to set the gains to the proper levels...
... You can place the microphone in that area, run the calibration and store it off in one of the receiver memory positions...
... A high quality receiver like this needs to be paired with high quality speakers to get the most out of it...
... Although there is no sound quality difference between having Dolby True HD or DTS Master Audio decoded on a receiver it was still nice to see "True HD" or "DTS Master Audio" light up in the receiver's display...
... However, with my Blu Ray Player, the only way to hear DTS Master Audio is to have the receiver decode it...
... The receiver definitely has the power to drive a 7...
... Video Nowadays, receivers are also about video...
... The issue we had with it was that receiver would not upconvert 1080i or 720p source material to 1080p...
... It comes complete with an iPod cable which allows you to listen and watch your content on your TV through the receiver...
... We didn't spend too much time with this because we had a Mac Mini connected to the receiver...
... Conclusion Overall, Ara liked the receiver enough to bump his current receiver to the family room...
... We were a bit disappointed that the receiver would not scale a 1080i or 720p signal to 1080p and that we couldn't find a way to get our 480i signal via HDMI to scale to 1080p...

... I put the card back on the TV and was greeted with other images from other files unable to access the GalleryPlayer content...
... The feature requires a USB card dedicated to GalleryPlayer due to this limitation along with the fact that the TV does not load the images into an internal ram...
... Unfortunately the images are encoded for PC video 0-255 and this input is setup for consumer video, 16-235, and that means that upper whites and lower blacks are crushed delivering images with artifacts appearing overdriven with highlights washed out, blacks cut off, devoid of color or wrong color...
