Pioneer VSX-1131 review

A punchy and precise sound – and revamped remote and menus – make this AVR a home cinema charmer, but don't expect wonders from the entry-level MCACC setup

Easy to set up

Previously had a Sony amp but was getting a bit old so decided to bite the bullet and go for the pioneer amp. Easy to set up and sound quality seems excellent, so far so good.
