switching which only transfers high-definition video signals, the HDMI
repeater allows full-digital transfer of high-definition audio as well as up to
1080p video signals. Although the VSX-519V does not have Dolby TrueHD
or DTS-HD Master Audio decoders, it does allow you to enjoy HD audio via
LPCM output through HDMI.

High-Performance Technologies for
Superior Sound Quality
Advanced Sound Retriever
Pioneer's latest A/V receivers feature the Advanced Sound
Retriever, which significantly improves the sound quality
of compressed audio — such as WMA, MPEG-4 AAC, and
MP3 — to the level of CD sound. The Advanced Sound Retriever creates
new signals to restore the minor details left out during the compression
process. The VSX-1019AH and VSX-919AH feature an Advanced Sound
Retriever for multi-surround sound, which is compatible with DVD
soundtrack such as Dolby Digital or DTS.
Auto Level Control
Auto Level Control equalises volume level differences
between tracks when playing music from iPod or other
sources. The Auto Level Control on the VSX-1019AH and
VSX-919AH supports multi-channel playback, maintaining
a consistent level even at low volumes.
New GUI (VSX-1019AH/VSX-919AH)
The GUI on the latest A/V receivers has been refined, resulting in enhanced
ease-of-use. Each function has a dedicated GUI screen, displaying, for
instance, iPod/iPhone data, speaker settings, or EQ adjustments.
