The latest and most powerful MCACC sound calibration
technology fully supports the most recent surround
formats, including the new Dolby Atmos. It uses sensitive
measuring to allow adjustment of all speakers, including
ceiling speakers, for breathtaking cinematic and
audiophile precision.
Audio equipment tuned by AIR Studios represents the
international reference in high-fidelity sound. AIR
Studios and Pioneer cooperate to fine-tune selected
components for truly outstanding purity and fidelity.
To deliver the full potential of uncompressed sources
like Blu-ray Discs and other high-resolution audio
content, the SC AV Receivers are equipped with Direct
Energy HD amplifiers. Using exceptionally short signal
paths, they enable audiophile-grade Class D amplification.
The industry benchmark for digital-to-analogue
conversion. The SABRE DAC produces crystal-clear
sound and eliminates jitter, so the signal remains free
of digital artefacts.
