Product Description
The VSX-817-S includes Pioneer's unique MCACC system, which stands for Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration. At the touch of a button, the MCACC will optimally tune the amplifier to the size of your living room space and speaker placement. The result sounds like a professional recording engineer has fine-tuned your system.By simply placing your speakers directly beside your TV screen and activating the unique Front Stage Surround Advance feature, you can experience a virtual surround sound environment. The benefit here is that you don't have to worry about routing speaker cables around your room; your speakers can be placed up front.The VSX-817-S includes a USB host on the front, which means you can access compressed audio files. And with Pioneer's unique Sound Retriever technology (which up-converts compressed audio to CD-quality audio), you are guaranteed high-quality sound.

 Frustratingly Difficult to Setup and Operate June 16, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Receiver needed to be hooked up to tv to set it up. Did that, but receiver remote needed a good two hours before it could be synchronized with tv to be able to choose setup menu options. It also needed a very long time before it could capture signal from cd and dvd player. This equipment is not user friendly and frustrating to operate. If it weren't a pain to return, it would have been on its way back to Amazon already. I'll give it a few more days to decide. I might just do that. It's just not worth it. I wonder if main reasons for steep discount from MSRP are customer complaints.
