The perfect mid-level Home Theater System August 27, 2007
11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I needed a home theater system that didn't have a DVD player (I mean who doesn't have one already) and would nicely complement my Pioneer Plasma TV. Surprisingly enough Pioneer actually had an affordable model because it dropped out the DVD / CD player and the price ended up being only 200 dollars. It's a great deal and I can't say how happy I am with the product. It's all it claims to be and set-up was a snap. It's easy to use, good looking and really matches nicely to the Pioneer TVs- HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. Great entry-mid level system.

This little box was a snap to setup. The speakers fit nicely with any room decor and the sound is, well, CLEAN. It took me less than 15 minutes to have the components plugged in and speakers wired and ready for action. The front audio jack and included mini to mini cable allowed me to test the system with my iPod before plugging in the other units.
The optical in is a must and this system has it. The dB display is a little weird as it counts down from 0, but it could be a user error configuration thing. I have yet to crack the manual and have already blasted out the neighbors twice.
I am glad my room is as large as it is, any smaller and the unit may have knocked down the walls. Pioneer has hit a home run with this years Plasma models, and followed it up with a game winning walk-off with this system.
I am looking forward to the race on Saturday where I can put myself on pit road. It's hard to believe I paid $215 out the door including shipping directly from Pioneer for this unit.
You will not be disappointed!

This was my first surround sound purchase, so I can only compare to TV speaker sound. Anyway, it sounds great, I never realized how much 5.1 can draw you into a movie or game. It has 3 digital inputs (which I found rare for this price range)1 fiber and 2 coax. I can crank it up loud enough to be almost uncomfortable with no distortion. Bass is real nice. Also, it has a radio tuner which I liked.
2 minor issues: The receiver is huge, alot bigger than it looked in the pictures in my opinion. Second, the documentation is lacking. Looking at the remote there are a whole bunch of features and options this thing has that aren't explained well or even mentioned in the manual.
All in all, a great purchase, considering this is one of the cheapest home theaters in a box you can get. I would definetley buy Pioneer again.

First off, the sound is beautiful for the price. I previously had a cheap KOSS surround sound system, and you could hear a slight buzzing and cackling in the speakers when there was no sound. This system, however, is completely silent as far as distortion goes.
The speakers and subwoofer are very sleek and sexy. The receiver looks nice, but like every other quality receiver it is quite large.
I would have liked an extra optical input, but the fact that it already comes with 3 digital inputs (1 optical, 2 coaxial) is pretty rare for the price range it is in.
I don't like how the volume goes from -95 to 0, or the fact that each input is tied to a different name (ex: optical = CD, coaxial 1 = DVR, etc.). It would have been much better if they just put the name of the input type.
I am pretty sure this model has been discontinued, but some places are selling a nearly identical model, HTP-2950, that comes with HDMI and a DVD player.
