Fantastic, high-end, home cinema separates system, consisting of the terrific Pioneer BDP-LX71 Blu-ray/DVD player, miraculously married with the Pioneer SC-LC81 7.1 channel, networked AV Receiver. Stunning functionality, majestic and energetic sound and superb imagery make this an incredibly entertaining system.
PIONEER BDP-LX71:
The Pioneer BDP-LX71 is a stunning Blu-ray player with a superior build quality and high quality components. Taking over from the award-winning BDP-LX70, the '71 model continues Pioneers traditions of producing some of the finest AV products available.
The BDP-LX71 delivers an awesome Blu-ray experience with 1080p video output via HDMI v1.3, support for the 24 frames per second 'native film' format and host of picture adjustment functions allowing you to tailor the image to suit your television or projector. It will also upscale DVDs to full HD resolutions, so they'll look better than ever before.
The audio experience is superb too. The BDP-LX71 supports DTS-HD Master Audio and High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital Plus. These formats can be output as bitstream or linear PCM via HDMI or decoded on-board for output via the 7.1 channel analogue output.
Profile 1.1 compliance allows you to take advantage of the interactive 'BONUSVIEW' features found on many Blu-ray discs. For example, picture-in-picture commentary - as you watch the movie, the director pops up in the corner of the screen as a 'talking head' and gives you behind the scenes information.
With its robust dual-layer chassis, high performance Wolfson DACs, smart gloss black design and tactile remote, the Pioneer BDPLX71 is a superb Blu-ray player that delivers an incredible HD experience.

Apart from 4 HDMI inputs, there's also 2 HDMI outputs - ideal for those with both a flatscreen TV and a projector. High-def audio is here too, in all its full 7.1 channel glory. With on-board decoding of DTS-HD Master Audio/High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital Plus, Neural-THX surround and with THX Ultra2Plus and Air Studios certification, the SCLX81 delivers a heart-pounding, immersing and wonderfully precise audio experience. Also, with 190 watts per channel, you won't be short on power for those big, loud action scenes.
Not only will the SC-LX81 give you superb home cinema functionality, but it will act as a networking media hub too! The LX81 will play MP3, WMA, FLAC and AAC music and JPEG photo files, not only from USB memory sticks and portable MP3 players, but also from DLNA network devices such as compatible computers or network attached storage systems. Play the music stored on the computer in your bedroom on the speakers in the living room or browse your photo collection from the comfort of your sofa. Plus, if you have a broadband Internet connection, you can use the SC-LX81 to receive Internet radio stations.
With far too many features to list, the Pioneer SC-LX81 is a spectacular networked home cinema receiver that will be an exciting centrepiece for your AV system.
