ARTISTS START WITH A WHITE CANVAS, TELEVISIONS START WITH BLACK. IT IS THEIR STARTING PLACE, THE VERY

FOUNDATION THAT MAKES EVERYTHING POSSIBLE. THE PUREST COLORS. THE RICHEST HUES. THE MOST REALISTIC,

LIFELIKE, IMPECCABLE IMAGES. ACHIEVING THE BLACKEST BLACKS IMAGINABLE WAS THE INSPIRATION FOR THE

REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY IN OUR NEWEST PLASMA DISPLAYS. SO WE THOUGHT IT ONLY FITTING TO

CHRISTEN THEM WITH A NAME THAT SIMPLY MEANS “BLACK.” KURO™.

blacks so black they disappear

ULTIMATE VIDEO PERFORMANCE

From 480i to 1080p, the KURO eliminates

nearly every image processing error and

reduces unwanted digital video noise for

the best picture possible, no matter what

the source or format.

OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, ALL THE

TIME The KURO’s exclusive Optimum mode

automatically analyzes the type of content you’re

watching and the room lighting conditions to

seamlessly adjust various picture settings. The

outcome is nothing short of amazing.

A NEW DIMENSION OF COLOR

With deeper black levels comes the ability to

reproduce the full spectrum of colors from

red, green and blue cells in all their intensity.

Colors are more rich and vivid, while vast

improvements can be seen in nighttime or

dark shadow scenes.

speaker system, including fully integrated digital amplifi ers.

The KURO delivers crystal-clear, precise sound laced

with expressive power. This transcendent sound offers

a listening experience so different from other television

speakers; it enshrouds itself around your ears and pours

itself over your entire body. From the gentle breezes of

rustling leaves or the softest whispers to fanatic sports fans

roaring in the stands, the KURO faithfully reproduces every

level in between and all with pinpoint accuracy.

EXPERIENCE LIKE NEVER BEFORE

With true 1080p/24fps, the 1080p KURO models immerse you

in a breathtaking cinematic world. In the past, fi lm displayed

on television required stretching 24 frames-per-second fi lm to

match the 30 frame-per-second television display, sometimes

resulting in annoying motion judder and unnatural on-screen

images. The KURO has solved this problem by displaying fi lm

sources at fi lm speed, True 24fps, just as the director intended.

So you enjoy high-resolution images on the KURO with natural,

fl uid movement not possible in other displays. And with the

maximum resolution available today, 1920 x 1080p, the 1080p

KURO models deliver a pure high-resolution signal resulting in a

picture clarity that surpasses everything that came before them.

Every mood, light, and subtle nuance that the director intended

is all captured on-screen. The outcome is complete immersion

into a world so real so intense, you will never watch TV in the

same way again.

COMPLETELY REDESIGNED

Every contributing technology in the KURO has been redesigned and reinvented from the ground up. An entirely new panel, category redefi ning color fi lter and groundbreaking video processor move the KURO into uncharted new territory, raising perfection to an entirely new level.

KURO™ FLAT PANEL TELEVISIONS 98 KURO™ FLAT PANEL TELEVISIONS

BEAUTIFUL IMAGES IN ANY

ENVIRONMENT A new color fi lter

effectively reduces ambient light refl ections

for solid blacks, provides unrivaled contrast

and produces brilliantly colored images in

virtually any lighting condition.

FINER GRADATION AND MORE

DETAIL The KURO faithfully reproduces

every shade of color, from light to dark

with smooth, even gradation. Now even the

darkest scenes reveal hidden, subtle traces

of fi ne detail not seen in other displays.

TRANSCENDENT SOUND

Completely redesigned speakers, including

fully integrated digital amplifi ers provide crisp,

precise, clear sound. The result is nothing

short of spectacular and completes the

powerful entertainment experience of KURO.

KURO WILL CHANGE

THE WAY YOU WATCH

TELEVISION.

and stunning Blu-ray Disc® to standard-defi nition DVD,

the KURO was designed to display only the absolute highest

detail and clarity. With a revolutionary new video processor and

scaler, the KURO delivers a picture virtually free of noise,

blurring, distortion, or inconsistencies. Regardless of what you’re

watching, the KURO brings out the absolute best—noticeably

improving even standard-defi nition programs. So even if your

source is not high-defi nition, the KURO does everything possible to

make whatever you’re watching look pristine.

THINKING LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Beyond the stunning clarity and brilliance of the KURO

picture is an intuitive television with remarkable brainpower.

The KURO constantly measures room light and analyzes source

content, then does something truly amazing. It automatically

optimizes the picture by seamlessly adjusting picture settings

like color, contrast and brightness. The result is so pure, so

real, it’s nothing short of stunning. No matter what the viewing

environment or content, whether it’s movies, concerts, sports

or the latest news from around the world, the KURO displays

each picture at its very best and all as if you were right there. All

you see is the most realistic, detailed picture possible.

HEARING LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Knowing the journey is as much about sound as it is sight,

the KURO was outfi tted with a completely new redesigned

RESOLUTION DESIGNED TO

EXCEED PERFECTION

Black is everything. Black breathes life into color. Black

renders fi ne detail. Black creates dimension and space.

Black is the canvas onto which great images are born. With

KURO, Pioneer has taken the very concept of black and

completely reimagined it. A revolutionary new cell structure

combined with a drastic reduction in idle luminance allows

KURO black levels to surpass anything ever thought possible.

A deeper, more intense black provides stunning color

reproduction with an expanded color palette. Pictures come

to life and every facet of every scene is displayed exactly as

it was intended. The KURO produces near fl awless steps of

gradation rendering virtually every shade imaginable between

black and white. Images produced by the KURO become more

than just pictures and are transformed into an unmatched

experience. The KURO redefi nes television and is the pinnacle

of clarity and contrast. Prepare to be transported into an

entirely new world of powerful visuals the likes of which

you’ve never experienced before.

PERFORMANCE LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Display a jaw-dropping picture regardless of format or

environment. This was the challenge given to our engineers

when they were creating the category-defining KURO

television. From high-defi nition broadcasts, cable, satellite,

CREATING DEEPER BLACKS

The KURO’s unique design has reduced idle luminance by more than 80% over previous

models, resulting in unprecedented black levels and improved contrast.

PREPARE YOUR

SENSES FOR A JOURNEY

LIKE NEVER BEFORE.

BEYOND WHAT HAS EVER BEEN IMAGINED

Stretching the limits of seeing and hearing to breathtaking

new dimensions is the Elite SC-09TX A/V receiver. Building

on 70 years of audio heritage, our engineers set out to

develop the purest, most realistic viewing and listening

experience ever thought imaginable. The result is a

sophisticated best-in-class powerhouse that sets the

benchmark for multi-channel sound in 1080p home theaters

with pristine reproduction of the emerging high resolution

audio and high defi nition video formats. We have redefi ned

what is possible and achieved astounding audio fi delity.

HEREIN BEATS THE HEART OF A LION

Current analog amplifi ers can no longer handle the high

power performance required for a truly pristine HD listening

experience. The design of the SC-09TX expertly mixes the

best of digital and analog technology to achieve a level of

surround sound performance with an accuracy and detail

that creates an overwhelming experience unlike anything

that has come before. Combining ICEpower® class-D

analog amplifi cation, together with our proprietary sound

tuning and digital signal processing (DSP) technologies,

the SC-09TX delivers the full impact of new audio formats,

Dolby® TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS®-HD, ensuring

precise sonic reproduction that redefi nes the traditional

limitations of home theater audio.

EXTRAORDINARY STRENGTH ALSO

MEANS NUANCED AND DELICATE

The realistic sound quality is also the result of a new

industrial-strength build with premium, hand-selected parts

that harnesses the receiver’s staggering drive capability of up

to 200 watts per channel of continuous multi-channel power

output. The result is a robust chassis rivaling the strengths

of the creative tools used by directors, producers and

engineers, truly realizing the audio and video design

prowess of the SC-09TX. The unique Separated Power Block

Design isolates the digital processing and amplifi cation

blocks, and prevents internal interference between each

block while improving the receiver’s overall operation. The

ultra-strong separation allows the true excitement of HD to

be felt by ensuring the dynamic, smooth playback required

for high resolution. Like our Elite receivers before it, the

SC-09TX delivers the subtle nuances of delicate sounds

with astonishing accuracy.

TUNING IN PERFECTION

With True One-Touch activation, and by using the built-in

Advanced Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC)

microphone, the SC-09TX immediately reaches out to

touch every corner of the room and begins to make best

use of the acoustics. The receiver, with the help of MCACC,

then makes subtle adjustments to the connected speakers,

AVANT-GARDE.

RESPECTING YOUR ELDERS

Advanced as they may be, Elite receivers

are able to get along with all your existing

components. Input video signals are received

and processed through the Digital Video

Converter, and can be output via HDMI.

BASS THAT FEELS RIGHT Because of

the way less advanced receivers process low

frequencies, bass signals often arrive late, after

the treble and mid-range. Our Phase Control

technology compensates for this phase lag,

signifi cantly improving multi-channel sound.

THX Not a format but a standard of performance,

THX Select2 means you can get the enveloping

experience normally found only in THX certifi ed

movie theaters. That’s the philosophy behind

designing a receiver to meet such stringent

certifi cation requirements.

PARK YOUR IPOD AND YOUR SATELLITE RADIO

Thanks to a dedicated iPod® terminal, your iPod player and Elite receiver will get along fi ne. Your iPod even charges up while connected. Add a satellite antenna for access to your

ENTER A NEW REALM OF SOUND

Forget everything you thought you knew about receivers

with the Elite line. The latest thinking in audio engineering

was methodically brought to bear, and nothing less than

cutting edge materials and modern fabrication techniques

were considered in their development. This is why an Elite

receiver is both the muscular heart and brilliant mind of

any great home theater.

HERE’S TO THE SUBLIME

ABUNDANCE OF POWER

Sit back and be enveloped by the primal essence of sound. With

a Digital Core Engine at the heart of every Elite receiver, the

pinnacle of digital audio is but a single touch of a power button

away. Lose yourself in auditory bliss as the Sharc Ex® chips

and 48-bit Freescale® DSP Engines conduct an engineering

symphony with power to spare. And the 24 bit D/A converters

will ensure that even with all that power behind it, the signal

will remain pure from input to output.

ADAPTATION AT ITS FINEST

The intelligent, perceptive and intuitive features designed into our

receivers transform every room into acoustic nirvana. Furniture,

window coverings, ceiling height, room shape, everything that

makes a personal space your own is analyzed and considered.

Elite receivers will explore every corner, every wall, and then

evaluate the acoustic characteristics of a room, neutralize and

level out the sound fi eld, and automatically detect and calibrate

each connected speaker. The Advanced Multi-Channel Acoustic

Calibration System with Standing Wave Control does all the work,

leaving you an audio experience unlike any other.

TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETATION

FOR A TRANSCENDENT EXPERIENCE

The ultimate audio HD experience for home theater begins

with DTS®-HD and Dolby® TrueHD—these two high defi ni-

tion formats are at the leading edge of home theater audio,

offering you an enveloping surround experience. Elite

receivers are expertly fl uent in Dolby® Digital EX,

DTS® Extended Surround, DTS 96/24 decoding, and

advanced concert and cinema modes. So no matter how your

source material is encoded, it will have never sounded better.

And to make sure your cinema experience is a transcendent

one above all others, all Pioneer Elite receivers are THX®

Select2™ certifi ed.

GOOD RELATIONSHIPS ARE PRICELESS

No matter what entertainment sources and devices you have,

your Elite receiver can work with them seamlessly. Music

from your iPod® player has never sounded better. Gaming has

never been so engrossing, XM® or SIRIUS® satellite radio so

captivating, Blu-ray Disc® so immersing, DVDs so engaging,

a purity of sound that stands alone

LIKE ANY OTHER COMPONENT WE OFFER, OUR SPEAKERS ARE ENGINEERED SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PUREST OF SOUND,

AND DESIGNED AROUND OUR CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED TAD DRIVERS. WE’VE USED THE MOST ADVANCED MATERIALS,

SUCH AS BERYLLIUM, IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE. ADDING TO THAT SUPERIOR

CRAFTSMANSHIP AND OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, WE THEN LET THE SOUND SPEAK FOR ITSELF.

EX SPEAKERS 29

AN EXPERIENCE PROVEN UNLIKE

ANY OTHER The EX Series was rigorously

tested at the world-renowned AIR Studios in London.

Founded by legendary producer Sir George Martin,

the studio’s aural expertise is second to none. We

couldn’t ask for a better testament of ability.

FUNCTION AND BEAUTY Our EX

Series cabinets are crafted from multiple layers

of laminated MDF. They’re designed to remain

sonically inert enhancing audio stability and

therefore taking nothing away from the

exceptional clarity and focus of the sound.

PASSION THROUGH UNITY The unique

one-piece cone and center cap construction of

the EX Series bass drivers adds rigidity and

mechanical integrity. This eliminates unwanted

cone resonances, improves accuracy and

delivers bass that can be felt down to your core.

THE PUREST

REPLICATION OF SOUND

AND NOTHING LESS

LET THE WAVES OF SOUND

WASH OVER YOU

You’ve embarked on a journey to a world of audio perfection.

Here, nothing is left to chance and unprecedented sound

replication is the standard. As with any Elite component, we

strive for a perfect replication of the medium. With our latest

speakers, the EX Series, use the fi nest engineering and

materials to deliver a sound so true they virtually erase the

line between studio and home audio.

THE IMPECCABLE UNION OF

ENGINEERING AND ARTISTRY

Given the right nurturing, brilliance can be found at the

crossroads of art and engineering. When Pioneer started to

develop the EX series, we put our engineers in the same room

as the recording artists. The results were spectacular—

speakers that take both the art and science of audio

reproduction to unparalleled levels of accuracy. You will hear

exactly what the artists and engineers want you to hear.

TAD DRIVERS CREATE WORLDS

The concert hall presence of a chamber orchestra, the

cleansing sounds of a tropical forest, or the violent chaos

of a cinematic chase scene; they all become completely

real with TAD drivers built into EX Speakers. Beryllium,

the lightest, most rigid material possible for speakers,

is used, and this is why monitors with TAD drivers are

considered the undisputed fi rst choice for recording studios.

For the home theater, it’s like conjuring up new places and

environments every day.

ALL TOGETHER, EVERY TIME

The groundbreaking principle behind the EX Series

distortion-free sound: Tweeters, midranges and bass drivers

all delivering their separate frequencies to your ears at

exactly the same time. To make a speaker that aligns sound

perfectly, we use a Coherent Source Transducer (CST) that

puts the tweeter in the center of the midrange driver, and a

revolutionary curved and slanted baffl e to present the drivers

in complete alignment.

TAKE YOUR EARS TO A PLACE

THEY’VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE

We will settle for nothing less than a complete and totally

immersive experience. And to understand this absolute

commitment is to understand why we put as much time and

dedication into the development of our EX Series speaker

line as we do all of our other components. We know audio

is an inseparable part of home entertainment and respect it

as such. One listen, and your ears will agree and your heart

will understand.

HEAR WHAT EXCELLENCE

SOUNDS LIKE

Every element of the EX Series is engineered and constructed to deliver bold rich, clear sound.

THE ELITE PURE AUDIO COLLECTION

Rounding out our critical listening music systems is the

exclusive Pure Audio Collection of hi-fi delity Elite audio

components. A choice of two amplifi ers and two SACD disc players

will let you close your eyes and let the music take you there.

THE STEREO RECEIVERS

The SX-A6-J and SX-A9-J amplifi ers are both designed

to reproduce sound as the recording artist intended it. In

addition, the SX-A9-J can be used as a preamplifi er, and can

amplify your most treasured digital music fi les directly from

a portable hard drive or USB drive.

THE SACD PLAYERS

Subtle music detail is the seemingly tiny but key difference

between simple stereo separation, and a soundstage so open and

wide you can see the physical placement of each instrument, of

each musician in your mind’s eye. Both the PD-D6-J and PD-D9-J

SACD players utilize technically precise detail and an ultra-high

sampling rate to provide a large and sweeping audio experience.

“SPLENDID. SINCERELY, LONDON.”

Our engineers utilized the expertise of AIR Studios to ensure

that the Pure Audio Collection delivers an experience as

powerful as seeing a performance live. At last, the hi-fi

renaissance has offi cially begun.

Flat Panels: High-Definition Television (HDTV): HDTV refers to a complete product/system with the following minimum performance attributes: Receiver: receives ATSC terrestrial digital transmissions and decodes all ATSC Table 3 video formats. Display Scanning Format: has active vertical scanning lines of 720 progressive (720p), 1,080 interlaced (1,080i) or higher. Aspect Ratio: capable of displaying a 16:9 image. Audio: Receives and reproduces, and/or outputs Dolby Digital audio (Consumer Electronics Association, August 2000). Plasma Display Systems display images consisting of hundreds of thousands of minute pixels (light emitting cells), and there is a possibility that some pixels may be inactive, flashing or continually illuminated. All phosphor-based display systems may develop image retention, sometimes called burn-in if permanent. Recommended guidelines are as follows: Do not display still images for long periods. Do not display content in the 4:3 aspect ratio (black or gray bars on left and right side of content) or letter-box content (black bars above and below of content) for extended periods of time, or use either of these viewing modes repeatedly within a short period of time. Pioneer’s Plasma Display Systems are equipped with multiple wide-screen viewing modes to fill the entire screen with content. Displaying dark images after displaying still images for a period of time may cause image retention. In most cases, the image retention can be corrected by displaying bright images for a similar period of time. However, if your Plasma Display System displays still images for additional long periods of time, image retention may be irreparable.

All images on screens are simulated.

Blu-ray Disc Player : Some discs will not play content in HD through a component video output. See Blu-ray Disc packaging for details. For latest product specifications, please visit www.pioneerblu-ray.com.

CD Players: Can play CD-R and CD-RW music discs in music CD and Video CD format. However, the pickup may not be able to play some CD-R or CD-RW discs recorded via PC, depending on the condition of discs and pickup or PC system setup parameters. MICROSOFT, WINDOWS MEDIA and the Windows logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries. WMA content can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7, 7.1, or Windows Media Player forWindows XP, or Windows Media Player

WMA files encoded with DRM (Digital Rights Management) copy protection will not play. Up to 299 folders and 648 files (MP3 and WMA) in total can be played. Protection: (Digital Rights Management) Copy protection is a technology designed to prevent unauthorized copying by restricting playback, etc. of material or devices other than the PC (or other WMA recording equipment) used to record it.

CPRM copy protection technology, with scramble system, allows the recording of copy-once broadcast programs, but not copying of such recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on DVD-RW discs in VR mode, and can only be played on CPRM-compatible players. When playing DTS-encoded (CDs, DVDs), excessive noise will be exhibited from the analog stereo outputs. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, take proper precautions when the analog stereo outputs of the DVD player are connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital SurroundTM playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital SurroundTM decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF,AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the DVD player.

DVD Players: Note: DVD players and DVD Discs have Regional Code Classifications that determine their market area and compatibility. Discs and players must have matching codes in order to be played. All DVD players featured in this catalog are classed as Regional Code 1. Some discs may not be playable due to different recording formats or physical condition of the disc at the time of recording or playback. This label indicates playback compatibility with DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode (Video Recording format).
