So many features in such a slim device.
Just 85 mm high and 317 mm deep, Pioneer Slim Receivers are designed to fit in any popular TV or home cinema rack. And with the “Sound Wing” mode, they are the ideal companion for Sound Wing speakers for 360° surround with just 1 or 2 speakers.
Plug in your iPod or iPhone, and it becomes one with the receiver. Or insert a USB device to play PC files. And when you connect to your internet via LAN, you can enjoy internet radio and automatic firmware updates.
The slim VSX-S500 brings you the HD home cinema, with the option to intelligently adjust the sound according to the position of your speakers using MCACC. This way, you'll always be in the sweet spot for perfect audio when watching a film or gaming.
An AM/FM tuner is built-in.
It has 6 HD inputs including 4 x HDMI.
A WiFi converter is optional.
Besides Dolby Pro Logic IIz, the receiver supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio so you can enjoy uncompressed, high-definition audio from Blu-ray discs as well.

With HDMI you can use this receiver to watch 3D video from a Blu-ray disc. Other convenient features include an Audio Return Channel for TVs with DVD player or Tuner built-in, for example, and Standby pass-through.
