It's nice that Pioneer seems to be back on track after all the turbulence. Even if I doubt that the brand will be able to return to the old days. For the time being, there is no need to wait for legendary AV flagships - too much has been restructured for that. But the Premium Audio Company knows what's important: the VSX-LX505 offers top features at a very fair price.
