I bought it so I could use the new HDMI cables to connect my HDMI TV, my Comcast Dual Tuner Converter Box, my LG DVD/VCR Recorder, and some other machines to my Sony sound system. I have had the VSX-92TXH elite Home Theater A/V Receiver for several months. We enjoy listening to movies through our Sony Stereo Speakers.
I've had mine for about a year and I love it , no problems whatsoever. I've had experience with Pioneer with my BDP-95 Blu-ray player, and they were terrific, and very responsive. This is in response to the one star rating. I do know that if you don't buy from an authorized dealer must company's will not help much, perhaps that was his problem, who knows.
I am quite pleased after 3 months of use. This unit was a replacement for an older Denon AVR-4800 which I liked but this Elite really has excellent soundfield presence and the calibration was painless. The real story is the sound processing which is 5 star. This unit is solid and built to last. Purchased for use with Pioneer Plasma PDP-4280, Sony PS3. The HDMI switching (3X1) works well with no noticeable artifacts. If you need network integration you will have to go for the VSX-94TXH which will also give you (4X1) hdmi switchinga nd a few more watts/channel but costs a lot more.
Pricey but well worth the money. A great receiver. Setup was quick and painless and I love having the 3 HDMI passthroughs.
I bought this Pioneer Elite reciever from Pioneer in February of this year. I could unplug the unit and after a short wait plug it back in and then it would work, however in just an hour or even less it froze again.(By freeze I mean it completely locked into the position it was in and I could change nothing, not the volume, not the input, nothing).Even worse however has been the horrible customer service that I have recieved from Pioneer since this began.
I wish I new this before I bought one. Pioneer however has dropped the ball completely.
Don't get me wrong I am not reviewing Amazon or the Sub Seller they had nothing to do with it. I am still being given the "we'll get back to you" run-around at this very moment, 2+ months and counting in the repair shop Radio Active Repair in Lancaster, PA(avoid them like the plague as well, they didn't even know what PCM was compared to Bitstreme.).
A Warning to all Amazon.com consumers please be aware of the horrible experience that I have had with Pioneer, and hopefully, you'll avoid the same mistake I made. It completely froze in one month.
If you value your electronics like I do, and you want to be treated with respect when something does go wrong, if it does, then avoid Pioneer like the plague.
