Cleaning the unit
Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and
dirt.
When the surface is dirty, wipe with a soft cloth
dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six
times with water, and wrung out well, and then wipe
again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or
cleansers.
Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays or
other chemicals on or near this unit, since these will
corrode the surface.

Features
Direct Energy HD Amplifier
Through a collaboration, Pioneer and ICEpower have
jointly development a unique class D amplifier called a
“Direct Energy High Fidelity Class D (HD) amplifier”. This
new generation reference amplifier offers outstanding
performance (high output of 700 W (SC-07)/630 W
(SC-05) simultaneous) with high sound quality and
reproduces the latest in multi-channel digital contents.
Easy setup using Advanced MCACC
The Auto MCACC Setup provides a quick but accurate
surround sound setup, which includes the advanced
features of Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ. This
innovative technology measures the reverb
characteristics of your listening area, allowing you to
customize your system calibration with the help of a
graphical output that can be displayed on-screen, or
using a computer. With the additional benefits of
numerous MCACC preset memories, standing wave
control and microphone measurements from a series of
reference points, your home theater experience can be
truly customized for optimal surround sound.
Phase Control
The Phase Control feature corrects the phase distortion
as well as group delay for LFE (Low-Frequency Effects)
audio signals during multichannel playback.
Full Band Phase Control
The Full Band Phase Control feature analyzes the
frequency-phase characteristics of the speakers
connected and corrects the phase distortion to the
flattened frequency-phase characteristics. This
correction minimizes the group delay of the middle- and
low-frequency ranges against the high-frequency range
and improves the frequency-phase characteristics
across all ranges. Furthermore, the enhanced frequency-
phase characteristics between channels ensure better
surround sound integration.
