    CNET Review

    October 2, 2007

    The Good: HDMI 1.3 compatibility; converts analog video sources to HDMI; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; excellent automatic speaker calibration; switches as many as six high-definition video sources; the VSX-91TXH AV receiver is compatible with Sirius and XM radio subscriptions.

    The Bad: Only two HDMI inputs; subpar video processing for analog video sources; lackluster onscreen interface.

    The Bottom Line: The Pioneer Elite VSX-91TXH AV receiver delivers excellent audio quality and a host of cutting-edge features, but competing models offer even better values at this price point.
