Pros: Good overall sound for music, DVD's, and TV Cons: Remote is the absolute worst
I received the Pioneer VSX-D409 and a Pioneer DVD-434 as a Christmas/birthday present from my wife in December of 2000. We had stopped in Best Buy because we got "Customer Appreciation Day" coupons in the mail and wanted to see about using them. I...
Pros: Best value for it's price Cons: Little hard to operate
I brought this receiver as part of an entire home theater system from Costco for just $ 389 plus taxes in December 2000. I am very very pleased with it's performance. The model number of the entire system is HTP-209 and you can find it on the web being...
Pros: GREAT SOUND, features, lots of features Cons: Hard to program remote, no optical output, might be hard for some to hookup.
This receiver is great. Everyday I discover a new really cool feature. With all the options and features, and all the inputs on the back, this receiver could be a little daunting to the entree level user. The instructions are clear though and should...
Pros: Solid product, lots of features for a good price. Cons: A little patience required to learn features.

Pros: Supports both Dolby Digital and DTS; includes a plethora of inputs, easy to operate Cons: No S-Video input

I went on a trip for a couple of days, and, being the person I am, I brought the manual along with me for some reading material. So by the time I got home, setup...
Pros: Good quality Dolby Ditigal and DTS surround for DVD movies, especially given the price. Cons: Poor sound quality on "regular" CD playback. Sounds "muddy".
I saw the VSX-D409 on sale for $349 (Canadian) and I jumped at the chance to graduate from "mere" Dolby Surround sound to enter into the Dolby Digital and DTS realm. What a mistake!
While the Dolby/DTS surround re-production is surprisingly...
Pioneer has done it again with this great DTS receiver.It sounds great!!.The remote is universal and your able to program your TV,VCR and DVD player into one remote,but it's also too crowded.Pioneer has tried to put everything on a small remote,almost...
This receiver is excellant. It has given me more moments of joy listening to it than trying to figure it out. It has been very reliable to me and sounds great! The only bad thing about it is the "no s-video inputs or outputs" Other than...
