Speakers that Project a 3D Sound Field to Enhance Presence and Give a Feeling of Expansive Space
5.1-channel surround sound can enhance the feeling of presence if it can project sound not only in two planes but three dimensionally. To achieve this, the HTP-LX70 uses polyhedron speakers based on dodecahedron technology, while the HTZ-LX61 front and surround speakers have a unit facing upward on the top of the speaker. As a result, the sound spreads out not only horizontally, but vertically as well, creating a three-dimensional sound
space throughout the room. As the sound expands, it can express not only a feeling of motion from side to side, but a truly realistic perspective, offering greater enjoyment of movies and music.
Advanced Design Features Enable the System to Blend into Your Interior
The HTP-LX70 and HTZ-LX61 not only have a beautiful appearance, they were developed with a view to ensuring that the area around the TV is neat and attractive. By employing Pioneer's Dual Centre Method, the centre speaker does not have to be placed above or below the TV, so speaker location can be more convenient. In addition, Front Stage Surround Advance lets you enjoy surround sound with the rear speakers located in the front. Thanks to these two advanced technologies, you can achieve a neatly positioned
system that blends in nicely with your interior.

Double Subwoofers for Extra-Powerful Bass(HTP-LX70)

Sound Retriever Plays Compressed Music Files with CD-like Sound Quality (HTP-LX70,HTZ-LX61)
With the compressed sound formats used for PC or iPod® music files, some of the sound data is cut during the compression process. These music files benefit from the Sound Retriever function that supplements for lost sounds, letting you enjoy music with quality that rivals that of CD. The HTZ-LX61 is also compatible with the Advanced Sound Retriever that plays high quality sound with even greater depth.
Motion Sensor and Touch Sensors Enhance Less Element Design (HTZ-LX61)
There is a motion sensor on the front panel of the receiver. When you approach the receiver to operate it or insert a disc, the sensor detects you and
automatically turns on the display. When you move away from the receiver during play, the display shuts off, saving energy. Instead of the usual buttons, there are flat Touch Sensors on the top of the receiver.
