Pioneer VSX-522-K 5.1 Channel 3D Ready AV Receiver $248 @ Harvey Norman

350

Can pick up in store.
Used to be $348 so a $100 discount according to HN.
I Just bought the HTP522 5.1 HT Receiver 5 Speakers 1 Sub $299 @ DSE,but think it is a good price if you only need a AV receiver.

    • Actually $249 at JB =D

      • +37

        I'd rather pay the $1 more and buy from JB then buy from HN.

        • +7

          But if you buy it from HN, you'll feel like a professional!

        • +7

          But… why would you buy it twice?

        • this is the greatest comment ever

  • can someone recommend is Yamaha better or pioneer

    • +8

      At this pricepoint you won't notice the difference.

    • I bought yamaha RX-V373 around same time when jamo deal was going around. i havent' heard pioneer so can't compare but i am very happy with yamaha.

  • No HDMI passthrough according to review on JB

  • Damn I bought this from HN last week for $348

    If only I waited a week!

    • Didn't by any chance buy it on a 28Degrees Mastercard?

      • Nah debit card

    • +1

      Check whether HN can do price guarantee or your credit card can do.

    • +2

      Just tell HN it is a pricing error on your book and bring it back to call off the deal.

    • You can try the best price guarantee option
      "To be eligible for the Harvey Norman Best Price Guarantee, you must provide to the Relevant Franchisee on the date of your purchase, or within seven (7) days after the date of purchase"

  • Can anyone recommend some 5.1 speakers or a receiver for someone who only has 1 input/output source (my lg-50PZ650 tv http://www.lg.com/au/tvs/lg-50PZ650-plasma-tv). I only watch things through LG Media LINK (Plex via ethernet) and regular TV through the antenna.

    I don't have a DVD/bluray player or have any consoles or anything else attached to the TV.

    Does a receiver seem overkill for my setup or do I still need one? Thanks

    Crap amp pay extra and get the Yamaha 3D amp

    • +1

      This can do 3D no problem even my VSX520 can do 3D.

      Can you find any Yamaha 3D amp for $249?

      BTW no bluetooth by default have to buy the addon on eBay.

  • And pioneer cannot guarantee this will work via HDMI ARC

  • Can anyone recommend a cheap amp like this with bluetooth.

  • I currently Own a Marantz SR5001 which is 6 years old i bought it in 2007 . How is this Pioneer sound compare to 6 years old Marantz SR5001 . Very temping to buy to upgrade to TrueHD Audio and 3D Capability .

    • not sure if serious, comparing Marantz to entry level Pioneer

  • What about these refurbished ones.. For about the same price once you include shipping..

    • not sure if serious

  • Looks like this Pioneer VSX522 model has some issues for few people… Pioneer are reselling quite a few 'refurbished'ones. The last refurbished one I got from Pioneer is going back to them given that it is still broken (and they still sent it out to me!?).

    • I think a lot of people would've found the setup process a pain in the arse like I did, I had a lot of issues trying to get a PS3, bluray player and xbox360 hooked up using HDMI but for some reason only two HDMI ports support audio while the other two don't. Audio seems to only work on Game and Bluray HDMI inputs, which is a pain in the ass if you bought it and it said it had 4 useable HDMI ports..

      • I am using VSX520 and have 360, HTPC, BluRay player connected to it and I have no issue.

        May be 520 is difference.
