Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've
just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment.
Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun
and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer
and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your
equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the
sound come through loud and clear without annoying
blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without
affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
"comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So
what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful
to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
· Start your volume control at a low setting.
· Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
· Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent
hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want
you listening for a lifetime.

Power cord CAUTION!
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord
when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of
furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The
power cords should be routed such that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause
a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your
nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement.

Features
Advanced Multichannel Stereophonic Concept
The VSX-49TX receiver is constructed with Pioneer's industry-leading advanced multichannel stereophonic
concept. This means it is designed to reproduce music and movie soundtracks as close as possible to the
intentions of the producer during mastering. The receiver uses a revolutionary 3-D Frame Construction
technique and a Symmetrical Power Train Design, with high-performance Advanced Direct Energy MOS-FET
output devices, generating 160 watts (FTC 6
) of power for 7 independent channels. True 32-bit Tri Digital Signal
Processing is used for ultra realistic sound.
i.LINK Digital Interface
The i.LINK interface makes it possible to connect the receiver to i.LINK-equipped components such as a DVD
player with a single cable and enjoy multichannel digital audio from SACD and DVD-A discs (if the player is
compatible with these outputs), as well as digital audio from DVD-Video, CD and Video CD discs.
In addition to simplified connection, jitterless audio is possible with Pioneer's PQLS* technology when playing
DVD-As, audio CDs and SACDs. By supressing jitter, deterioration of audio quality is minimized and digital audio
of the highest quality is realized.
*PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) [rate control]
Technology for high-precision transmission of digital audio over the i.LINK interface enabling jitterless
digital-to-analog conversion using a precision quartz in this receiver.
To make this feature work, it is only necessary that this receiver and one rate-control-compatible player are
alive on the i.LINK network.
Other advantages of using i.LINK include `smart' features such as automatic configuration and automatic
function selection--start playback on a i.LINK-equipped component and the receiver automatically selects the
component for input.
"i.LINK" and the i.LINK logo are trademarks of the Sony Corporation.
Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration System (MCACC)
In order to make setting up as easy as possible for users we have created the MCACC system. This unique and
convenient way of getting good surround sound from the receiver makes trouble-free setup a snap. With the
included microphone plugged into the front panel the MCACC system creates a monitoring environment to establish
the parameters of the sound for the specific room you are using. The MCACC system adjusts the parameters to
establish excellent surround sound effects and offers you studio quality home theater sound with minimum effort.
Universal Player Compatibility (DVD Audio)
This receiver features eight discrete channels of analog inputs, each with 96kHz/24bit A/D converters. This
makes it ideal for use with all audio formats, including DVD-A, and allows very high quality digital processing.
Furthermore, using the MCACC system you can setup this receiver for optimal DVD-A playback.
Next Generation THX Standards and New Digital Formats
The VSX-49TX is the first receiver in the world to be THX Ultra2 certified. Among the new THX technologies is
ASA (Advanced Speaker Array), which can process any 5.1 channel source for 7.1 channel playback (THX Ultra2
Cinema and THX MusicMode), or 6.1 channel playback (THX Surround EX). THX technologies are also available
when listening through an i.LINK interface. Naturally, you can also play all existing audio formats, including the
recently developed Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS 96/24 soundtracks and DTS-ES Extended
Surround formats. On the video side, the component video output is fully compatible with high definition,
progressive-scan digital video (720p).

range of cords interchangeably.

This receiver is designed to use 0.65 W of energy when in standby mode.
