Pioneer VSX-80 7.2 Channel 80W Home Theater Smart Network AV Receiver

When you connect the VSX-80 to your home network, you'll open up lots of music options. If you have a networked computer, you can stream tunes wirelessly over the network for playback in your home theater. Apple AirPlay makes it easy to stream music from Apple® devices like an iPhone®, as well as from iTunes® on your computer. Pandora® and vTuner Internet radio offer endless hours of free online music. If you subscribe to Spotify®, you can play their huge library of tunes wirelessly using your Android™ or Apple device. You can even download Pioneer's free remote app to your phone or tablet to control the receiver via Wi-Fi®. AirPlay and the Pioneer remote app require a wireless home network and a wired connection between the receiver and network.
Audio and video in two rooms
Most of us want music and video in more rooms than just the home theater. You can use the VSX-80 to feed audio and video signals to a second room. There is a second HDMI output that can send signals to another TV. You can even watch content from different sources simultaneously, so the kids can watch a movie in the playroom while you watch the game in the home theater. This receiver can also power speakers in a second room — perfect for a bedroom, kitchen, or porch.
Pioneer helps you get connected
Setting up the Elite VSX-80 is easy when you use Pioneer's AVNavigator. It walks you through the connections and setup procedures using your computer, smartphone, or tablet. One of the most important setup processes is calibrating your speakers. Sound complicated? The receiver does it for you with Advanced Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration. Just plug the included microphone into the front-panel jack, and the receiver will optimize its output based on your speakers and your room setup. It will also calibrate your powered subwoofer, for consistent, accurate bass response throughout the room. AVNavigator requires that the receiver be connected to the same home network as the computer, smartphone, or tablet used to run it.
