It's time to welcome the newest and possibly the hottest release from the world-renowned manufacturer Pioneer, in the body of the LX01BD home cinema system, a piece of audio technology that boasts extremely refined looks and more functionality than one would normally expect from a theater-in-a-box unit. If you're looking for a no-nonsense home entertainment system loaded with all the nifty features you've ever dreamed of and something on the side, then the Pioneer LX01BD is definitely the tool for you.

And of course, if you care about the way your home gear looks, the Pioneer LX01BD is a winner, as well: you'll get a lot on the tech side and a lot on the visual rating, too, as this home cinema system isn't at all shy of showing its noble origins.

At the heart of the Pioneer LX01BD you'll get a top-drawer BluRay disc player with native 1080p resolution and supporting HDMI Deep Colour, delivering 24 FPS video, exactly like the director of the movie intended; add in the progressive scan and the digital noise reduction and you'll get a system worthy of all the praises.

On the audio side, the Pioneer LX01BD can deliver a blasting 400W power, which goes in omnidirectional satellites, each loaded with multiple speakers with different firing positioning for a truly moving audio experience.

With both Focus and Wide 5.1 modes you can be sure you'll be transported in the very middle of the action of your fav movies, with a realistic sound staging thanks to the amazing support for numerous Dolby standards and no less than 13 surround modes. The dual-driver subwoofer with 360-degree dispersion and the Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) capabilities add even more value to this amazing multimedia tool.

And there's more: a full-function wireless remote control with a touchscreen LCD panel to put every function at your very fingertips, providing instant and direct access to virtually any settings inside the Pioneer LX01BD. While iPod-ready and able to control the Apple players via remote, this multimedia system also comes with a high-gloss polished finish that will add instant richness to any room.

This BluRay home cinema system does not come cheap as the current price is somewhere above the $3,000 level. Yet, if you're ready to go for something different from the rest of the common home cinemas, it might prove that the Pioneer LX01BD is one of the elite choices.
