Digital camera reviews of Pioneer VSX-1018AH 7.1-Channel A/V ReceiverDigital camera Review: A/V Goodies Summary: 4 Stars
The Pioneer is my second attempt at the new and confusing A/V market. I was looking for a receiver that could drive my classic NHT 2.3 front channel speakers and match the black glossy look of my current stand and A/V electronics. While reading the owners manual and it's out of day on screen menus, you get the filling that you are operating a commodore 64. The remote also feels clumsy and difficult to read. On the other hand, this A/V receiver will not heat your room in the winter. The amp runs very cool while driving the 7.1 surround sound speakers in the 88db range and above. I wish Pioneer could have added one more HDMI input connection. Overall I am very please with this unit and would recommed it to all my friends looking to upgrade.
