Features

A 14-bit, 108MHz video digital-to-analog converter (DAC)
Delivers professional-quality video. This high-end DAC provides exceptionally clean images with very low noise. 6 Channel Burr-Brown Chipsets, for extraordinarily pure audio processing.

Pioneer Advanced Digital Direct Pixel Drive with Two-Dimensional Resolution Expander provides automatically increases the pixel count from progressive 480 x 720 to an amazing high-definition progressive 1280 x 720, or 1920 x 1080i. More pixels = better picture. Available using the HDMI digital output.

PureCinema Progressive Scan
The ELITE DV-79AVi achieves high conversion accuracy by actually re-creating the original frames of a film and displaying them in a 3-2 order (called 3-2 pull-down), matching the output to television standards. This creates natural, film-like, flicker-free images that are smooth and virtually free of bothersome artifacts on moving objects.

Newly Designed Ultra thick Triple-Layered Construction
To protect its sensitive, extremely high-quality ICs and video processors, the DV-79AVi's design includes a triple-layered construction underneath the machine. This greatly increases the isolation of the components from vibration, for improved video and audio performance.

Isolated Power Supplies
The Power Supply Transformer dedicated to the audio circuits provides a completely separate power source for all audio signal processing eliminating any interference from video signal processing.

Audio System

High Definition Multimedia Interface: HDMI
This high-bandwidth interface allows huge amounts of very high quality data—both video and audio—to be output at high rates of speed, up to 5 GBps. And it doesn't perform unnecessary D/A and A/D conversions, so the signal remains in a pure, digital state, and this lossless process ensures the highest quality level. HDMI offers plug-and-play capability and accommodates all of the current ATSC digital television formats, plus it supports up to eight channels of audio.

i.Link Connectivity
iLink connectivity, a.k.a. IEEE1394, is an advanced digital interface that, with one digital cable, can simplify your system and expand its performance at the same time. It's perfect for handling high-resolution formats like DVD-Audio and SACD.

Bass Management System
To ensure that the sound you're outputting is appropriate to the room in which it's played, the Bass Management System lets you control the amount of bass sent to your speakers. You can also make adjusents with the speaker distance control in .5-foot increments, to maintain balanced sound on multi-channel DVDs and DVD-Audio discs.

Disc Formats

Multimedia Performance: Play Almost Any Kind of Format
Pioneer brings to market a DVD player with wide compatibility, including: DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, CD-R, CD-RW, digital music formats WMA and .mp3, DVD-Audio and SACD for multi-channel music, as well as viewing DivX video and JPEG files with Photoviewer.

Output Terminals

All A/V terminals gold plated for superior signal transfer.
