Excellent sound and features for the money. Dolby Pro Logic decoding is much more accurate than previously used Adcom and Sony ES seperates. Volume is more than enough to drive my relatively inefficient NHT's (96db) with no distoration up to "pain level". On screen menu system is confusing the first time around but has a lot of flexability including setting speaker distance and type, bass cut-off, etc. More than adequete digital inputs (3. Built-in temperature controlled cooling fan is a nice touch although it has yet to be needed. All in all I'm very happy with the purchase and was able to get the $1450 discounted to $1250.

I use the unit with Bryston power amps. The sound is best discribed as "Smooth". The setup is better than most. I have assisted in helping setup two Yamaha systems lately, and although, good sounding, I come home to better.

I did my research before I decided to purchase a VSX-07TX,
and I can say without a doubt that it is the best reciever
for the money on the market today. The reciever works and
performs to all my expectations. Highly Recommended.

Excellent receiver for the price.Sound is great when cranked up, however my speakers don't do it justice. Only problem I have is with the remote.Can't program all the multi-functions I would like to perform at once.I can turn on my vcr,cable box,receiver,and t.v. with multi-command ,but I can only turn three of them off at once. Also there aren't enough buttons on the remote to program all the commands I would like to program in. Besides these minor flaws,receiver is great. Can't wait to hook up DVD unit.

This is by far the best value on the market. It sounds great and is THX certified! It even has decent AM/FM reception. The only drawback is DTS compatibility, but who knows where that is going considering there is no DTS software!

There is no distortion at listenable voulume. Another plus is that there are few confusing buttons on the front panel and the remote is easy enough for my wife to use.
This is by far the best reciever I have ever owned!

Pioneer VSX-07TX
This is a great sounding unit in both stereo and suround.
And I really like the stereo direct function that bypasses tone controlls and AD,DA converters.
Powerfull amp section that is clean and dynamic.
Only complaints are 1. in bass management with mains set to large,
sub pre out is bypassed in stereo mode and fed to mains.
In suround sub pre out is on reguardless unless you set sub to no.
2.You can't switch audio sourse independently of video sourse.
ie.watch sat while listening to cd.
last pioneer I could and miss this feature.
But all in all this reciever is worth every penny spent 949.99 delievered.

After a considerable amount of reading and auditioning, I finally decided on the Pioneer 07TX as the best value available for 100 watts per channel AV receivers. I consider the Denon AVR-3600 as its closest competition, but the Pioneer is the better buy. It was a tough choice given that I already owned two other components by Denon (a CD player and cassette deck). I am totally satisfied with the performance and features. The THX audio setting is really phenomenal. The remote is excellent. I especially like the fact that the speakers automatically mute when headphones are inserted.

Sounds really good. Doesn't have pre-ins or DTS compatibility, though. The AC-3 sounds great. There are only about 5 DSP modes. It's pretty easy to setup, the on-screen setups are fairly good. The remote is pretty easy to configure, and is partially lit.

Pioneer VSX-07TX
The perfect receiver for home theater,music without getting into multiple components are mega dollars for the high end stuff. Sound quality is excellent. Thinks I like: Your settings for each mode are automatically memorized, auto 5.1 setting, seperate A+B output, proper speaker terminals at the back for ALL the speakers. Lots of inputs, cooling fan, onscreen programming. Things I don't like. In 5.1 if your front speakers are large, then the sub-out is bypassed (get around this by selecting small) Remote is kind of hokey, instructions like common sense, lack of knobs anywhere (all push buttons.....)

Other then that a great unit.

Sweet sounding on music, with plenty of "slammage" for movies.
Surround set up is pretty easy, with an intuitive menu system.
THX processing really helps make this receiver listenable on
movies, without dulling the high end. Best bang for the buck
for a THX receiver.

Cons: 1) My unit sends a audible "pop" to the subwoofer channel, when
inputs or processing on the amp is changed. After several months of
trying to get a straight answer, the Pioneer factory replied that they
feel this problem is due to a delay in the muting circuit in the
microprocessor, and is a flaw in the design. However, for me, this
"flaw" is more than balanced by the great performance of the reciever.

I am selling my Pioneer VSX-07TX Receiver for $750 plus shipping. If interested please e-mail me at rainsong@enter.net, thank you.

The unit is only 5 weeks old and is in perfect working order and has no cosmetic flaws whatsoever.

Pioneer VSX-07TX
Great receiver. Dolby Digital sound is superb. The THX processing is most excellent especially for Dolby ProLogic signals. I have a laser disc player without AC-3 capabilities and the THX processing for movies such as Jurassic Park and the Star Wars trilogy is amazing! Not to mention Dolby ProLogic encoded cable television. I was considering purchasing an AC-3 capable laser disc player (just for Star Wars) but with THX, I don't feel the need. Sure there is concern because there is no upgrade path for DTS or anything else but I think DD will be around for a while. I've heard DTS in my home and it wasn't incredibly remarkable as I thought it would be.

No issues with the remote, works with well with my Sony TV and VCR. The remote is all set to go of course with my Pioneer DVD and Laser Disc player. You're able to power off all the components with one button.

Some of the things I don't like:
No bass or treble controls in DD or Dolby ProLogic. Controlling the base would probably not be an issue if I had a sub-woofer which is not necessary for me right now as I live in an apartment.

Can't change the labels for the various inputs.

Great price around 1K. Cool THX logo, you will be admired by your friends.

I am rating it a 9, as receivers go, because I don't believe sound from a receiver can get too much better. Lots of beef, but very smooth. Some limitations as to the flexibility of this receiver, in doing additional hookups, adding other processors, etc. After I ran the THX calibration, and used the RS db meter in the process, I had to tweak the bass down a bit in straight stereo mode. Remote is a bit funky, although I like the looks of it, and it worked for me in the one button command mode, just fine.
Switching is very clean, no clunks, thumps, clicks, or video flashes. Picked it up a local dealer's clearance sale for $800. It's a class act, and a very good example of how you can lay back and let the on-board micro-processors do all the work for you. All you do is listen, and adjust the level until the sound level meter reads 75dbc...the OSD for setting up the remote are a bit sucky for this price range. Can't find more criticism than that!

This is a most awesome receiver. Just lost the one I recently purchased in divorce and you can bet I'll replace it with exactly the same thing. Home theater was astounding. With both AC-3 DVD & LD, the experience was exceptional. The THX added superb imaging, especially to LD's that were just Surround sound. A terrific all-around audio & video receiver with enough inputs and outputs to satisfy everyone. Especially me, as this was the only receiver that could handle all that I had to hook-up to it. For the money, this is by far the very best to be had. And that would be without the THX certification. With it, it's no contest. Highly Highly recommended.
