  • Damn good price for some of those Pioneers.

  • saw it in chadstone store today so yes it's available in stores

  • +1 great discount

  • Using a Pioneer VSX-519V now - it's a bargain for this price.
    Feel bad for those who bought it at RRP…around $500

  • I got the Pioneer VSX-1019v the last time they had this discount at JB. Great discount without even haggling.

  • +1

    Are those prices on the web before or after discount?

    Personally I'd rather go something like a Denon. I recently picked up the AVR1610 for $599 - http://www.justklapp.com/products/Amplification/AV%20Receive…

    • Dunno bout that - does your Denon decode LPCM uncompressed HD audio like the Pioneers can?

      • Yes of course it does.

          • @Wally: A quick look at the Pioneer site doesn't show it as being on Pioneer models either, but trust me it is there. I think it's simply assumed that HDMI-capable AVR's that can decode HDMA and True-HD can also decode LPCM since it is already uncompressed. It would be a pretty useless HDMI AVR if it couldn't do LPCM, because not all devices (namely phat PS3) can bitstream.

            In any case, look under the HDMI section:

            • @atlas: FWIW http://bit.ly/cmjomr
              indicates that these low end receivers can output the latest HD audio via LPCM

              For a unit under $240 (during promo) thats pretty darn good!

              IMHO with most average entry Blu-Ray players etc able to decode all the various hi-end vid/audio protocols why pay extra for the Receiver capability as well

  • They had a very limited range in the Wollongong store. About 3 if I remember correctly. None of them too impressive (entry-level models). I'm gonna try the Warrawong store to see if they have more as I need a new receiver with HDMI.

  • JB are ripp offs. i saw the pioneer rd6513 for $248 3 days before this sale started. and a few others the same.

    • then put the deals up and man up

      • He duzn't really fully understand what he is talking about - with the current Paypal promo you can have the 'Sherwood' RD-6513 delivered Nationwide for $207.26 total

    • i also bought it 2 weeks ago for $210, that including the 10% off sale that was going on that weekend.
      its now $298. typical JB.

  • Beware Melbourne CBD store has closed similar offers early - last time they had 30% off, I went to the CBD store on the last day (after ringing to check they had stock) and was told offer finished yesterday.
