Performance

Pioneer VSX-D812K

Excellent performance, features, and price; six 100-watt channels; Dolby EX, DTS ES, and DTS 96/24 surround processing; SACD/DVD-Audio inputs; component-video switching.

No onscreen displays.

Pioneer's affordable receiver sounds better and has more features than most midpriced models.

SPLENDID EFFORT FROM PIONEER

fine all rounder with power, drive and agility with movie and t v audio. i can't imagine this being a let down for anyone especially at the 160 i saw it sold for on a popular auction site recently

excellent decoding suite. simple to set up with a good manual. full set of pre outs so can be used as a processor too. superb movie sound. fine build too.

music can sound thin, though if you engage pl2 music it claws points back. no auto set up

Pioneer VSX-D 814 Receiver

Its good thing to know that I am very satisfied with my Pioneer receiver after more than a year since I purchased it. In todays digital world almost every electronic products has HDMI inputs which I find critical with the kind of technology we have

OK

A very fine unit that carries on the good name of Pioneer. Nice ergonomics and easy to setup. Good looking unit that is modern and attractive. Electronics work well and sound good. Nicely priced as well.

A very nice looking unit. (The silver matches all my other DVD, HD STB, plasma TV components). Very easy to set up and calibrate speakers. Sound quality is very good and is very satisfactory for our entertainment room. Movie DVDs sound excellent....

The VSXD814 is a better spec.'d machine (if you can call that a bad thing.) Only 2 component inputs. All modern units should have at least 3.
