“phase lag” — a delay of approximately 5 msec — of the low-frequency signals compared to the main channel signals. As a result, the delayed bass makes the sound lack synchronization. Pioneer’s Phase Control technology effectively eliminates phase lag and significantly improves the PHASE CONTROL multi-channel sound without any extra operation.
Page 3 Conventional HDMI Transmission jitter. AV Receiver Pioneer’s Precision Quartz Lock System (PQLS) Blu-ray Disc Player was developed as a solution to this problem. PQLS processes D/A conversion using the high-precision crystal oscillator clock instead of the audio clock regenerated in the HDMI receiving chip, and is free from jitter created during HDMI transmission.
Page 4 With digital broadcast, although images are displayed in high- definition, the audio quality is not as high since they are compressed with various bit rates. By applying Pioneer’s Auto Sound Retriever feature to TV broadcast signals, it adjusts the effects according to the bit rate transferred via HDMI’s ARC (Audio Return Channel), letting you enjoy digital TV broadcast in high-definition sound via Pioneer AV receiver.

Page 6 Stream Smoother Link 1122 Through HDMI connection, Stream Smoother Link detects the source type playing on a compatible Pioneer Blu-ray Disc player, and automatically switches Stream Smoother on or off accordingly. So there is no need for manual switching depending on the source. Stream Smoother is turned off for Blu-ray Disc and DVD sources, and turned on for network content to enrich low bit rate video quality.
Page 7 Merely having a high-grade video processor does not guarantee a quality picture — a fine-tuned setup makes the difference. Pioneer engineers have performed rigorous testing to achieve an optimum image from almost any content. This highly-precise conversion is effective for HD as well as SD sources.
