Pioneer Elite SC-07 Receiver Review
|
Posted on Wednesday, March 04 2009 @ 13:12:33 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck |
With that new Blu-ray player and library of accompanying discs, you might find that you also need a new receiver to reap all the benefits that the high-definition format has to offer. After all, without HDMI connections and the ability to decode the latest high-resolution surround sound formats, what's the point of getting a new Blu-ray player in the first place? For this reason, receivers are making a comeback in what has been, as of late, a video-centric world. Pioneer, calls it the "SBL" era: The era of sexy blue lights. On a positive note, the company's new Elite SC-07 7.1-channel receiver is the perfect specimen for this epoch. The average Joe might be intimidated by the SC-07, however. Take a look at the back panel, and you'll see why. It's absolutely jam-packed with every I/O under the sun, including four HDMI inputs and two outputs. But if you take a little time to get to know it, you'll find that the SC-07 is really quite approachable. And, mercifully, the front panel is much easier on the eyes. In fact, Pioneer has taken special care not to clutter the SC-07 with logos and buttons. Critical functions are hidden behind a drop down panel, and branding is, thankfully, nearly absent from the panel's front. Still, while the receiver's gorgeous styling is definitely noteworthy, it's nothing compared with the technology contained within.
