Pioneer vsx d1s user manual

I don't ever hear anyone ever say they regret owning one! I have 2! Reviewed May 15th, by clayperson Using a Sub-Harmonic Synthesizer for the sub. Thank you so much hifi engine team, got this amazing pioneer vsx-d1s in auction and it is working great, now that i have the operation manual I can set it up to maximize its features.

I salute you guys out there. God Bless you. This website is not affiliated with or sponsored by Pioneer. Though the receiver is an operational darling and its sound is free of aberrations, we just found View and Download Pioneer VSX instruction manual online.

The VSX has sub pre and center pre out but no rear or main pre outs. I will say that the Dolby Digital inputs sound fantastic and really make a difference over my Pioneer DVD analog outs.

The reason why I was considering the Pioneer VSX K was due to its internet radio features, I also managed to download the whole manual from the Pioneer website to my Macbook. Airplay on this receiver is fantastic.

Enter Another Dimension. There are spring-loaded connectors for two rear speakers. A power impedance selector on the rear apron reduces the operating voltage on the front-channel output transistors for safe operation with 4-ohm speakers. There are binding posts for a ohm fm antenna and the supplied am loop antenna as well as a coaxial jack for a ohm fm antenna.

Two of the three AC outlets are switched. It weighs 33 pounds. When we tested the VSX-D1S's amplifiers, we did not attempt to drive all five simultaneously, which would be an unrealistic condition given their phase and amplitude relationships in the surround-sound modes.

Instead, we drove the two front channels as for any stereo amplifier, and we later drove the center and rear amplifiers from their rear-panel inputs, bypassing the preamplifier section. The receiver's well-ventilated top cover became fairly hot during its preconditioning period and subsequent tests. With both front main channels driving 8-ohm loads at 1, Hz, the outputs clipped at watts per channel.

With 4-ohm loads the output at clipping increased to watts per channel. The respective dynamic power outputs were and watts. We also measured dynamic power into 2 ohms, for a reading of watts. We did not attempt 2-ohm operation in the continuous-power tests in view of the VSX-D1S's very high power rating and the risk of blowing fuses or even damaging the receiver.

The rear and center channels each delivered 60 watts into 8 ohms. The 4-ohm output was 83 watts for the rear channels and 93 watts for the center channel. The fact that two channels were being driven in one case and one channel in the other probably explains the difference in available power. The dynamic power outputs of these amplifiers were essentially the same as their clipping-level outputs.

The 1,hz distortion THD plus noise of the front-channel amplifiers at watts into 8 ohms was 0. At 1, Hz, it was 0. Into 4 ohms, the distortion was about 0. The distortion of the rear and center channels was 0.

The amplifier section's frequency response front channels , relative to the 1,hz level, was down 0. The tone-control response curves were conventional, with the midrange control's effect centered at 1, Hz. RIAA phono-equalization error was less than 0. The rear-channel amplifier response was down 0. The switch-able loudness compensation boosted both low and high frequencies slightly, and its response was independent of the volume setting.

The amplifier section required an input of The respective A-weighted noise levels were The high-level CD input overloaded at 2. Phono response cut off very sharply above 20, Hz, preventing overload measurements at that frequency.

The FM tuner section had good dB quieting sensitivity: 15 dBf in mono and Mono usable sensitivity was The fm tuner's distortion at 65 dBf was 0. Capture ratio was 2. Selectivity was good, measuring 70 dB for alternate-channel kHz spacing and 10 dB for adjacent-channel kHz spacing.

The kHz pilot- carrier leakage was at a dB level, and the kHz component was undetectable.
