A Great Home Theater Receiver!
For a good home theater system you need a good receiver. The Pioneer VSX-D509S is a great receiver with an excellent price. With the list price over $400, you can buy them for as low as $249 if you shop around.

Simply terrific for the price!
I bought this receiver totally on impulse, contrary to all my beliefs about shopping. It was the big day-after-thanksgiving sale, and Best Buy had this receiver on sale for only $199, and this was the most expensive Pioneer model they carried. Well, somebody must have messed up there, because the... Read full review »
Pioneering a great receiver...
Overview
I started with a 19" TV and a mid-range DVD player. By the time I was done aspiring to home theater greatness (given my severely limited budget) I had achieved 27" on the TV, a VCR, a pair of Paradigm stereo speakers, and a Sega Dreamcast to go along with my DVD player.

Bang for the buck in Home Theater
I spent many hours researching this receiver purchase, due to the large price / quality / feature variations in home theater recievers. The first task was to eliminate units that were merely "Dolby Digital READY". This translates to "DOES NOT HAVE A BUILT IN DECODER", but merely has inputs for... Read full review »

After browsing the competition, I settled on this little beauty. Why you may ask, well because it had...

Pioneer=No Customer Service
I bought this receiver because it had alot of features and it was a good deal (Costco). Mistake.
I set it up instinctively. I lost the manual. Called Pioneer customer (dis)service and waited on hold for 18 minutes (told only 5). A new manual would cost 20 smackers, plus a 4-week wait...

Great Receiver For The Money
I have been searching for a good DTS receiver for over a year. I am not a huge audio junkie but I like movies and the sound associated with them. I did not want to spend a lot of money and was amazed at the price of this receiver when I found it at Costco. It was far less than any other receiver... Read full review »
BEST FOR THE MONEY
I have looked far and near for a Receiver that could do ever thing. But do it for very little money. Well that's just what the Pioneer VSX-D509S does. What more could you want? It is a little hard to setup at first. You have to play around with the setting. But when you get it setup it rocks. Kick... Read full review »
High Power Digital DTS A/V Receiver
Okay, everyone has reviewed this clear crisp sounding receiver, and it's my turn.
I have owned 4 Pioneer VSX Receivers before, and this one makes the 4th one. Previous one was the VSX-D608 w/0.09% distortion, this one only has 0.02% and a better remote, but unlike the VSX-D608 remote did...
