Pioneer VSX-D912-S Audio Video Multi Channel Receiver – Silver - Dating from 2003 - SPARES & REPAIRS

Condition – Powers on but red standby light is lit - suspect printed circuit board fault. This Receiver is in generally poor cosmetic condition with several marks on the top and sides, coupled with  'dot' light marks on the front of the unit, as pictured.

Product Description

This excellent, top of the range, receiver delivers a healthy 110 watts to each of its six channels--above the norm for receivers in its price class--but the VSX-D912's standout feature is automatic Multichannel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC).  

That mouthful is far and away the most comprehensive and accurate automatic setup system.

MCACC set the levels of the subwoofer and the six speakers nearly as precisely as we could with a sound-pressure-level meter. With most receivers, setup is completely manual, and most folks never go through the hassle of properly establishing and balancing speaker levels. That's unfortunate; they're missing out on a lot of the sound quality they paid for.

The neat, aluminium front panel hides most lesser-used controls under a flip-down door.

Considering the substantial power reserves lurking inside, the D912 is a fairly compact unit and measures just 15.5 inches deep.

This Pioneer's extensive surround modes run the gamut from Dolby Digital/EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS/ES Matrix and Discrete processing. It even includes the latest trick from DTS: 96/24 decoding that lets you play DTS-encoded DVD-Audio discs without a DVD-Audio player.

The D912's connectivity suite should accommodate all but the most complex home theaters.

There are SACD/DVD/7.1-channel inputs and pre-amp outputs.

Component-video switching for two sources are available, as well as three composite or S-Video sources.

Digital audio connections are plentiful: five inputs (three optical--one front--and two coaxial) and one optical digital output. You also get A/B-speaker switching and heavy-duty speaker-binding posts. A full set of front-mounted A/V inputs is provided, including that optical digital input.
