Alright I am selling my Personal Pioneer Elite VSX-21 TXH, thing is minty fresh except for some cleaning marks - but has never had gear stacked on top of it...

Asking $335.00 Shipped with paypal

Item #2 -

Definitive Tech Procenter 2 - Great shape except the grill has some tears on it - $75.00 Shipped

Item #3 -

Definitive Tech BP1.2X - they go on the gon for 180 + shipping in great shape...

These have some cosmetic blemishes - I would rate them 6.5/10 - on your wall out of the way they will look wonderful.

How about 115 shipped?

    BTW, the Pioneer looks way better than Sid's pic. I think with the proceeds he needs to A) get a new camera or B) take photo lessons or C) both :smile:

    lol - Yeah my camera is like 6 years old and totally falling apart. It took some massaging for 5 minutes to get it to turn on to take the pics...

    The unit is immaculate and I am awesome. You will be satisfied.

    What spec on the hdmi inputs?

    I believe the vsx-21txh hdmi spec is 1.3a. Not sure, but I think I recall reading that somewhere. You will not be disappointed in this avr if you don't want/need 1.4. I have been tweaking it for the last week and every day it surprises me with how well it performs. Even the wife was commenting on how much better it sounds and how crisper the picture is on blu ray.

    Here is the vanns link to the AVR with the specs: http://www.vanns.com/shop/servlet/item/accessories/538461763/pioneer-vsx-21txh

    Shawn

    Here is what I read: "The VSX-21TXH and VSX-23TXH are part of Pioneer's Elite product line (Elite Brand), and the VSX-21TXH has earned THX Select Plus certification. These 7.1 channel receivers have 7 channels of 110 watt amplification and feature Dolby? TrueHD and DTS-HD? Master decoding. Pioneer's proprietary MCACC room calibration and Auto Level Control-Multi (that maintains broadcast playback at a consistent volume so commercials won't suddenly blast at a louder volume) are also included. Certified for 'Works with iPhone', they are also both XM and SIRIUS Satellite Radio ready. The VSX-21TXH has four HDMI 1.3 inputs and accommodates two zones of A/V distribution, while the VSX-23TXH has five HDMI 1.3 inputs, two outputs, and provides distribution for three rooms."

    And the explanation:
    HDMI 1.0 - HDMI 1.0 combines a digital video signal (standard or high-definition) with a two-channel audio signal over a single cable, such as between an HDMI-equipped DVD player and Television.

    HDMI 1.1 - This version adds the ability to transfer not only video and two-channel audio over a single cable, but also added the ability to transfer Dolby Digital, DTS, and DVD-Audio surround signals, as well up to 7.1 channels of PCM audio.

    HDMI 1.2 - This version of HDMI adds the ability to transfer SACD signals in digital form from a player to a receiver.

    HDMI 1.3 - This version includes improvements in both audio and video capability. With the advent of Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD, version 1.3 adds the ability to transfer the digital bitstreams for the new high resolution audio formats: Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD.

    HDMI 1.3a - In addition to the above audio improvements, HDMI 1.3 and 1.3a increase the amount of video bandwidth that can be transferred from a source to a display. This means, that in addition to the standard 24-bit color depth we are used to, HDMI 1.3 and 1.3a have the ability to transfer color depths up to 48-bits, and can accommodate resolutions much higher than the 1080p resolution standard that is in use today.

    HDMI 1.4 - HDMI version 1.4 adds practical enhancements for HDMI connectivity. If home theater components, such as HDTVs, Blu-ray Disc players, and Home Theater Receivers, are HDMI 1.4 enabled, one or more of the following features can be implemented:

    1. HDMI Ethernet Channel: This adds internet and home network connectivity to HDMI. In other words, both Ethernet and HDMI functions are available within a single cable connection.

    2. Audio Return Channel: This may be the most practical application of HDMI 1.4. What this feature provides is a single HDMI connection between a TV and a home theater receiver that can not only pass audio/video signals from the receiver to the TV, but also pass audio originating from the TV's tuner to the receiver. In other words, when listening to audio accessed by the TV's tuner, you don't need a separate audio connection going from the TV to the home theater receiver.

    3. 3D Over HDMI: HDMI 1.4 is designed to accommodate 3D Blu-ray Disc standards, with the capacity of passing two simultaneous 1080p signals using one connection. NOTE: An update (HDMI 1.4a) also incorporates additional 3D TV Broadcast, Cable, and Satellite formats.

    4. 4Kx2K Resolution Support: Although the current high definition standard for consumer equipment tops out at 1920x1080 (1080p), HDMI 1.4 can accommodate future 3840x2160 and 4096x2160 high definition pixel resolutions now in the planning stages.

    5. Expanded Support For Color Spaces: This allows better color reproduction when displaying digital still photos from HDMI-connected Digital Still Cameras.

    6. Micro HDMI Connector: Just as mini-USB is employed with portable digital devices, a new "Micro HDMI" Connector is much smaller connector that can still supports up to 1080p resolutions for portable devices. This is very practical for video camcorders, digital still cameras, and portable digital video playback devices.

    7. Automotive Connection System: With the increase of in-car digital audio/video devices, HDMI 1.4 can handle the more demanding vibration, heat, and noise that may affect the quality of audio and video reproduction.


    For consumers that have components that only feature HDMI versions 1.0 through 1.3, you won't be able to access these added version 1.4 or 1.4a features, but you will still be able to use future 1.4 enabled components with your current HDMI 1.0 to 1.3 components, you just wont have access to the newly added features. In other words, don't raise your arms in the air in frustration, fall into the depths of despair, or start planning a garage sale in order to get rid of your old HDMI equipment.

    FYI- This is all way beyond my comprehension. All I know is it is a damn fine AVR!

    Thats fine.

    We operate like a community - the gentleman (Engtaz) PMd' me and said he would take the unit on Friday. His word is good to me and that is fair.

    Now if he declines the unit would then be passed on to you to accept or decline.

    The rears are a great deal - so they will sell either here or Audiogon.

    I can point you in the direction of similarly priced receivers

    Trey, thanks for the fail-safe packing and rrrrrrapid transit. Finally got things hooked up Monday night and I'm extremely pleased. Much more detailed sound and punch from music sources than the similarly powered Yamaha the Elite replaced. The Def Tech surrounds were exactly what was needed in this challenging space. The system sounds so good that I'm moving the dedicated 2-channel retro (SX-1050 & Hartleys) out to the studio.

    Sorry I don't know how to add to your sales rating, but count me as a very happy buyer.

    Cheers!
