Customer Review

I have only one regret on buying the Pioneer VSX-9040TXH AV receiver: that I didn't buy it sooner. I love music and I have never heard such beautiful sound on anyone's home system. Right out of the box (without using it's wonderful automatic system of balancing the speakers) the sound was spatial, unbelievably clear and with a depth I have not heard. The most delicate sounds sounds were clearly audible while there was a dimensionality that was just a joy to hear. It got even better using the auto system to balance the speakers!

The receiver is very substantial - 30 lbs. It is has the heft of a very well built piece of equipment. It is very attractive in an understated but elegant way. It has dozens of choices to configure all aspects of video and audio reproduction. I can say movies have never sounded so realistic and immediate. We are in the process of seeing again many movies we thought were lame again b/c the sound is so wonderful that the experience is totally changed. The quality of the video is great and my old DVDs looked much better with the upcoding. The colors are accurate and the blacks very deep.

The ability to hook up my iPods directly to the unit and use the remote to fully control them by seeing GUI on the TV is amazing. The song information, album art and details of running the iPod are visible on the TV. The sound is wonderful using the neural setting.

I have not been able to push this system beyond -5 dBs so you can imagine the power this machine has. I live in a large apartment and feel I would be evicted if I fully utilized the power of this receiver. The amazing part is the sound is great at all volume level: balance and spacious. I have a set of large Klipsch floor speakers matched with a Klipsch center channel, Polk PSW110 sub woofer and Energy surround speakers.

As far as outputs and inputs the back of this unit has a very generous array. Check it out to see if you need more, but I think for most folks it will be more than enough.

As an added bonus, you can check out the Pioneer Elite units and find that the specs of this unit are identical to the Elite VSX-21TXH. It is also THX certified.

I found nothing that I can comment negatively on. The remote is fine, the unit runs cooler than my cable box and the configuration took two hours b/c it required me to read the entire manual. I have subsequently played with adjustments to tweek the unit and increase our enjoyment.

Buy this unit and you will just sit there and smile happily.

Bought this one to replace my old Yamaha. Have tried the Onkyo HT-RC160 and Pioneer VSX919AHK. Both are too complicated to set up and did not like the high temperature. The sound and video are better than aforementioned units. Very satisfy with this receiver.

Great Buy - Shane Myers - LAUREL, MD, US
This unit is great for the price.

Audio wise the low THD is quite nice and the ability to bi-amp your speakers is truly a plus.
The auto setup does a great job, and is fairly accurate as I checked it with my RTA and SPL meter.
Auto volume leveling is a nice feature to have, although purists wont want to use it.
There are plenty of decoding options however for entry-level THX this is right on the money.

Video is fine the up-scaling works well.

The IPOD interface needs to be worked out a little better, slow scrolling, the ability to pull meta-data off of the unit to a control system would really be great.

I am pleased with this unit and would confidently recommend it to other

Customer Review

I recently purchased the Pioneer HTP-2920 Home Theater System with an excellent receiver and it's six speakers. They come as a set and do not include a DVD player which I did not need as I have a Panasonic Blue Ray player already. The system costs between 0 and 0 on line, Amazon, eBay, or directly from Pioneer who has, like Amazon, extremely fast shipping and excellent customer service. The best prices are the questionable "open box" items on eBay, I elected to get a brand new system direct from Pioneer for 9 plus 99 cents shipping. Returns can be made if you are not satisfied for any reason. I thought about sending mine back as it does not have HDMI hook ups and Pioneer authorized my return with no problem but I am very glad I did not send it back.

Set up was well explained in the "quick set up" guides which are also available on line at: pioneerelectronics.com. Each speaker and wire is color coded for fool proof set up. The speakers include
plenty of wire length for a mid-sized room, wire gauge could be stouter but worked just fine. There were plenty of hook ups in the back and in front for accessories rivaling much more expensive receivers. There are three
audio inputs and a plug in the front that can be used for iPods. The receiver has 840 watts total power which is quite powerful and has six channels. It does not have HDMI hook ups which I was afraid would adversely effect my sound from my Blue Ray DVD player, but that was not the case at all.

The system is a very handsome looking set up with a glossy black receiver, and unobtrusive matching black speakers that matched my Toshiba 42" HD LCD 1080p TV to the "T". The sub-woofer has plenty of base and can only be used with this receiver. The other speakers and the receiver can be matched up with other systems and, frankly, the receiver was worth the price of the whole set alone. I have other receivers I paid 0 plus for that are not as nice as this Pioneer receiver is.

It has 30 presets for FM & AM radio stations. It has a large list of different Pioneer, Pro-logic & Dolby DTS sound selections, more than are even needed but can be tried for sound preference for various music types, movies, TV, etc. Sound Retrieval is also available, to restore a bit of data lost in music compression from sub-optimal digital mp3 sources.

The usual speaker distance/channel level custom adjustments are available but a "quick set up" for automatic speaker balancing offering an easy option with one having to select room size and indicate if the front or back speakers are closest. The options for sound manipulation were beyond anything I imagined for a 0 set. Even a display dimmer is included.

The speakers are small so I was expecting the sound to be poor to average but I was surprised to have sound that rivaled that of my Bose sound system that cost nearly
ten times as much! It sounded too good to be true but it was true and terrific and I'm thrilled with its sound and performance. No distortion at high volume. No tin-like sound, sub-woofer provided the right amount of bass that can be adjusted through the receiver. The speakers take up little room and are very easy to wall mount, all you need to do is hang them on a firmly secured wall screw. The small wires have an advantage too, they are hard to notice. So, small speakers and wires do have a plus in a room where you don't have a lot of room or do not want ugly wires and speakers cluttering things up. It's a compact system that packs quite a punch!

Go ahead and buy one, you won't be disappointed and if you are, you can always return it.

Amazing Quality For The Price - Mark A. Shelly -
Was very easy to set up. The instruction manual is kind of lacking, but if you cant figure it out, well I guess you would be pretty stupid, haha.

When I got everything hooked up and tinkered with the settings a little bit I was simply amazed at the quality and even the power of the sound coming out of the little speakers. My living room is fairly small, something like 14x18, but for my living room there is more than enough power. And for those who said the subwoofer is lacking are crazy, it shakes my whole house. My brother has a Pioneer receiver that is a couple notches above this and he has 1000's of dollars invested into Polk Audio speakers and this little system is not too far behind his 3-4k$ set up. Sure his has much much power due to his large speakers, but the sound quality is right up there with his.

Simply put, for the money you will not come even close to this set up. Similar products have distortion ratings of around 10% this is 0.7%. Best system I have ever owned.

Great system, but soon to bite the dust retailwise... - AladdinSane - NYC
It's such a shame that this system is soooooooooo hard to find in retail electronics shops...and what really is a low is that Pioneer has discontinued it...so finding it is more of a chore. Sure it's great to order online, I'm sure...but I'd rather purchase live and in living color, so to speak, at a shop and just drive it home myself without the waiting and potential mishaps typical delivery can bring.

Bummer!

If you find it, BUY it NOW before it's too late!

Peace!<-AladdinSane-
