Unlike regular receivers’ 2-D chassis design,
our revolutionary 3-D space frame construction provides superb physical strength.
Also, each receiver is divided with insulating
shields into three blocks: the digital processor, the power- & pre-amplier, and the
power supply sections. This construction
design serves two purposes: it prevents the
digital circuits from aecting the analog circuits, and it increases the rigidity of the cabinet structure. As a result, sound reproduction from any source is more accurate and
imaging is improved.

Accurate multi-channel sound reproduction
is possible only when the operating environment is physically, magnetically, and electronically identical for all channels. For that
reason, Elite receivers’
power output devices for
each channel are symmetrically mounted on a
pair of rigid heat sinks,
with the device for the
center channel mounted
directly in between.

For optimal performance, all Elite receivers
are equipped with Pioneer’s exclusive
Advanced Direct Energy (A.D.E.) MOSFET
power device, ideal for high-end audio. The
combination of this device and an AC/DC isolated amplier module yields exceptional
stability and ultra-linear amplication, combined with very low signal loss. It’s also a very
energy-ecient design, minimizing power
imbalances that can cause unnecessary distortion in the sound stage.

Action movies. Video games.
Live sports. Rock concerts.
They all have critical
moments where things suddenly explode
into over-the- top sonic mayhem. When
that happens, your receiver needs to have
some power in reserve, or the impact is
lost. For this reason, all Elite receivers utilize large, audiophile-quality electrolytic capacitor
pairs and a heavy-duty
power transformer, ensuring maximum performance during peak demand.
