Pioneer Audio / Video Multi Channel Receiver
Pioneer Audio / Video Multi-Channel Receiver with Wharfedale speakers
Pioneer's packed the affordable VSX-D511 with exciting home theater and music features! For starters, you get Dolby® Digital, DTS®, and Pro Logic™ II surround processing, plus 100 watts x 5 channels of clean Pioneer power to ensure crisp, dynamic sound at all times. This receiver also boasts 96kHz/24-bit D/A converters for smooth, lifelike sound from all your digital sources.
For an even more enveloping home theater experience, Pioneer's Virtual Surround Back processing uses advanced sound imaging to reproduce a phantom rear surround speaker. You also get DSP modes for music and movies, including 5-Channel Stereo mode for playing stereo music sources through all of your home theater speakers. When you don't want to disturb sleeping housemates with late-night movies, Pioneer's Midnight Listening mode adjusts the subwoofer, rear, and center speaker levels while compressing dynamic range for greater enjoyment of surround sound at low volumes.
The back panel sports plenty of inputs for all your audio and video sources, including 2 digital inputs and 3 S-video inputs. A 5.1-channel analog input, combined with the VSX-D511's wide-range frequency response (up to 100,000 Hz!), lets you make the most of high-resolution multichannel formats like DVD-Audio and SACD.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
