VSX-529 | Pioneer

Ultra high definition video. Right in your living room.

This powerful AV receiver supports high-definition video playback and will even pass through 4K Ultra HD video. To perfect your home cinema experience, the VSX-529 is equipped with a MCACC Room EQ. It tunes your system very precisely by adjusting each speaker's virtual size, level, distance and response. Even more so, because of the dual subwoofer preouts the frequency response of the bass can be improved significantly.

The VSX-529 leads the way in smartphone connectivity. Connect your iPod/iPhone via AirPlay, your Android smartphone via MHL, or use HTC Connect to play digital audio in high quality. Experience music like never before with Spotify Connect and vTuner internet radio.

The VSX-529 is available in Black (VSX-529-K) and Silver (VSX-529-S).
