HDMI® 2.1 with 8K

HDMI® 2.1 is the most recent update of the HDMI® spec and
supports a range of higher video resolutions and refresh rates including 8K60
and 4K120, as well as Dynamic HDR formats. 8K delivers a super-immersive
viewing experience with 2x the horizontal and vertical resolution of 4K, and 4
times as many pixels; and combined with 60Hz refresh rate enables smooth and
sharp viewing of content with high-speed action. HDMI 2.1 with 8K ensures your
system is ready for the clearest and cleanest picture available both now and
down the road.

ULTIMATE 4K GAMING EXPERIENCE

4K/120 enables ultra-fast motion UHD images to be crisp and
razor-sharp; and sports, action movies, and high-performance gaming benefit
significantly. This receiver supports higher performance from streaming devices
like the latest Apple TV.

IMAX® Enhanced MODE

IMAX digitally re-mastered content for the home environment
is created to provide the same sharp 4K HDR images and powerful sound just as
the filmmaker intended. Pioneer Elite’s IMAX Mode is meticulously optimized to
play digitally remastered content to deliver the best viewing and listening
experience on Earth.

Built-In Streaming Music Services and Faster Wifi

Access to Spotify®, TIDAL, Deezer, TuneIn, and Pandora® are
built into the system.

Bi-directional Bluetooth® Wireless Technology

This AVR can send and receive audio via Bluetooth wireless
technology. Stream from your device to the receiver using SBC or AAC codecs, or
transmit audio playing through the AVR to compatible wireless headphones using
SBC, aptX™, or aptX HD codecs including 24-bit audio over aptX HD. The improved
data transfer capabilities of the latest generation of Bluetooth ensure clear
and reliable sound reproduction so you hear your favorite songs just as the recording
engineer intended.

BUILT-IN MULTI-ZONE STREAMING AND VOICE CONTROL

Home ecosystem, including Apple Airplay, Alexa, Google apps, and more. You get

wherever you want in your home with up to 8K60 resolution.**

Works with Sonos Certified

This receiver can join your existing Sonos Home Sound
System, or be the start of a new one, just by pairing it with a Sonos Port*

MCACC Auto Room Tuning featuring Auto Phase Control Plus

MCACC adjusts the sound according to the listening room and
speakers, and also creates clearer sound by suppressing the standing waves that
occur between walls or ceiling and floor. Measurement of up to nine positions
can be saved for a wide listening area. Auto Phase Control Plus* makes
real-time analysis of the phase difference, and automatically compensates the
gap between the LFE and main signals, providing strong bass and clear
high-frequency sound.

devices, but Roon-tested devices are profiled by the Roon team to ensure simple
