Great reciever, especially for the price,

This review is from: Pioneer VSXD814K 6.1 Channel Digital AV Surround Receiver (Black) (Electronics)
I have been using this receiver for about 3 or so years. I have no complaints except for the lack of HDMI inputs/outputs which were not needed when I purchased it. The sound quality is fantastic, but a large part of that depends on how well you set up your speakers and what speakers you pair it with. I am currently running a 5.1 Polk Audio package RM6750, and I am truely impressed by the quality and loudness of the setup. I have a decent sized living room, and have had complaints from my neighbors on it being too loud. I am very happy with the product and have had no problems. As for the other reviewer, he may have a faulty unit, I have never heard a fan noise and I have pretty good hearing. This unit will not disappoint.

Fine with a major drawback,
This review is from: Pioneer VSXD814K 6.1 Channel Digital AV Surround Receiver (Black) (Electronics)
I'm sure this receiver is just fine for watching movies etc., but if you do any sound design work and need to pay special attention to your audio, avoid getting this guy. This receiver has a fan inside of it and ANYTIME the receiver detects a signal it starts spinning and making VERY distracting noises. When I even listen to small sound snippets, the fan still spins. Why?? It's not like this would cause the unit to overheat... Don't even try disconnecting the fan because the unit will detect that it is no longer connected and it will reset itself. So... if you like the sound of your audio accompanied by a whirring fan, then this is the receiver for you.

I agree with the other review there isn't any noise comming from this unit, it is dead silent. Perhaps you need to contact Pioneer. One word: PIONEER. Always known for quality A/V equipment.
I like this system and even though it is 3 years old it still works flawlessly. The only thing I would change is the menu and access for the speakers. I have not used other recievers so I do not know how they are set up but having to go in and tweak the speakers can take some time. I can't wait until they integrate these recievers with computers to have a gui to manage your home theater. I am sure it is available for high end systems, just not this low end stuff. I have this currently powering a 6.1 set up and it is plenty loud. Not sure if an upgrade is even worth it...fr TRUEHD...lol, marketing?
