SC-55 9.2 Elite A/V Receiver
A new class of receiver.

Introducing the SC-55 Elite A/V receiver. It wouldn’t be an overstatement to call the new Elite SC-55 one of the most revolutionary receivers ever produced. Or that the industry has ever seen.

An amplifier for the power hungry

The SC-55’s Class D3 9-channel amplifier is the most powerful amplifier of any multi-channel A/V receiver Pioneer has ever produced. Keeping the new audio formats of the Blu-ray Disc format in mind, Class D3 takes high-resolution multi-channel audio to a whole new level of immersive performance

Rated at 140 watts x 9 channels is a lot of power but is not the whole story. Where the SC-55 really shows its unprecedented power output capability is when driving multi-channels simultaneously without losing significant per-channel output. Class A/B amplifiers simply cannot match the efficiency of Class D3 as their power output per channel diminishes rapidly when more channels are added to the work-load.

Comprehensive and versatile installation options

The SC-55 with 9-channel Class D3 amplification gives custom installers an entirely new level of set-up options with the most useful and flexible speaker system configurations available in an A/V receiver. With 7 different speaker configurations ranging from 9.2 in the main room only, to 5.2 in the main room with powered Zones 2 and Zone 3, there is simply no reason you can’t customize your system to your exact specification.

The SC-55's advanced HDMI switching, network content and control capabilities, the latest A/V processors, and highly flexible custom installation features make it an excellent choice as a preamp processor with any amplifiers you desire. It even shuts down its internal amplifiers power supply and all related amplifier circuitry when the speakers are set to the off position making this choice even more practical.

AirPlay

AirPlay is a revolutionary way of enjoying your music anywhere in your home, and the SC-55 is AirPlay compatible right out of the box. Wirelessly push music from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or your iTunes®-running Mac or PC directly to the receiver so you can enjoy all your favorite music in your living room through the big speakers. Use your iPhone or iPad device’s familiar controls to change the volume and switch songs, all while viewing iTunes album art on your TV. And with the SC-55’s multi-zone capability, you can even enjoy your iTunes music in a second and or third room while you’re watching the latest Blu-ray Disc title in another.

DLNA Certified® 1.5

Since music is meant to be shared, not stored, the SC-55, is DLNA 1.5 Certified, which means you can pull your MP3, WMA, AAC, and even high-resolution FLAC and WAV files directly from your Windows-based PC to the receiver via your home network. Use the SC-55’s convenient on-screen display to browse through your music library, complete with album art, while your living room is filled with pure, high-resolution audio. Network connection can be made through the Ethernet port or with the AS-WL300 wireless LAN adapter (sold separately).
