The coolest iPod/iPhone/iPad add-on is a receiver.
Home cinema in HD and intelligent speaker calibration are just 2 advantages of the VSX-527 AV receiver. What's more, this receiver is the perfect match for your iPod/iPhone/iPad. With the digital connection, you can play both audio and video in high quality.
On top of this you get AirPlay, vTuner Internet Radio, DLNA support and ControlApp for your Android or Apple device.
Digital Direct connection to iPod, iPhone and iPad
Connect your Apple device directly to the receiver to view stored photos or videos or to stream directly from e.g. YouTube straight to your LCD TV. Thanks to the digital connection, you get the best possible audio quality enhanced by Advanced Sound Retriever
High-definition audio
Besides Dolby Pro Logic II, the receiver supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio so you can enjoy uncompressed, high-definition audio from Blu-ray discs as well.
Stream with AirPlay
Apple's AirPlay lets you stream music from any compatible device connected to your home network. This means you can easily enjoy your iTunes music library through your AV receiver.
Stream with DLNA
DLNA is widely supported on PCs, laptops, smartphones and other devices. As this receiver is DLNA certified, you can easily stream audio from such a device using your home network.
Easy-to-operate internet radio
Simply connect the receiver to your home network and enjoy access to thousands of internet radio stations worldwide, ranging from music and news to sports. The vTuner guide enables you to easily find and discover new internet radio stations.
Intelligent speaker calibration
Surround speakers can hardly be ideally positioned. MCACC therefore analyses the existing sound field using a microphone (included), just like a sound professional, and adjusts the sound timings to precision-tune the system to your room.
