Pioneer VSX-40 7.1-channel Elite series reciever

By any other name, just as Elite

Why would we wax poetic about a receiver? When it's part of Pioneer's Elite line, we think a little poetry is just fine. This 7.1-channel system brings out the best in your home theater system, whether you're making your way through your cassette collection or checking out the latest 3D blockbuster — and it has the connections to handle it. With 4 HDMI inputs, 5 composite inputs, 3 digital audio inputs, and a USB input that allows for a direct connection to charge and play your iPod, iPhone, or iPad you've got room for… well, almost anything you want. You can even connect portable devices via Bluetooth. High quality DACs and a powerful amp make sure that even your compressed music sounds great, and Elite video processing means you get picture quality that matches your audio quality. It's easy to see that with so much stuff, our desire to wax poetic is no bluff.
