Pioneer Launches Wireless Home Theater

Pioneer launches a new DVD home cinema system, the DCS-525, boasting a digital wireless rear speaker unit, elegant satellite front speakers and an ultra-slim subwoofer.

The new powered digital wireless rear speaker unit uses Direct Diffuse technology, bouncing sound waves off the walls & ceiling creating an excellent surround sound experience. With a 9 cm slim subwoofer that can be placed horizontally or vertically and only one flexible-to-install digital wireless rear speaker unit, the DCS-525 system gives the user more installation freedom than ever before to match speakers with the layout of their room.

According to Jim Catcheside, Product Manager, Home Electronics and Multimedia Division, Pioneer GB Ltd: “Our DSP and Direct Diffuse technology in combination with a digital wireless rear speaker unit allows us to offer a versatile and space saving solution that actually adds a new dimension to surround sound quality. The combined systemâs speaker units demonstrate that we are producing both leading edge technology and stylish design that will blend in any room, building on our desire to provide total DVD home cinema solutions.”

Versatile and compatible

The DCS-525 obviously shines while playing back one of the many commercially available DVD-Video movie or music titles. But it equally well handles home recorded DVD-R and DVD-RW discs, including DVD-RW discs recorded in DVD Video Recording Mode with play list edits.

The system also allows playback of MP3 and WMA audio files, and offers the ability to view JPEG images from CD, in addition to compatibility with VideoCD and SVCD.

Discreet design

Pioneer has created a design solution that will fit any home. The front satellite speakers and digital wireless rear speaker unit are in classic grey and silver while the ultra slim subwoofer can be placed horizontally or vertically; a stylish and discreet solution, yet boasting a total maximum power of 650W RMS.
