Ultimate Sound Control
The SC-1227-K supports formats like Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD® Master Audio to give your Blu-ray Disc soundtracks unsurpassed audio quality. Pioneer also includes all of the Dolby and DTS surround formats best suited for the wide variety of entertainment sources, including the newest Dolby Pro Logic® IIz height channel.

The SC-1227-K takes the multi-room audio experience to a whole new level with Zone 2 subwoofer and tone controls, as well as an On-Screen Display for the second Zone.

Class D3 Amplification
The SC-1227-K's Class D3 7-channel amplifier is one of the most powerful amplifiers of any multi-channel A/V receiver Pioneer has ever produced. Keeping the new audio formats of the Blu-ray Disc format in mind, Class D3 takes high-resolution multi-channel audio to a whole new level of immersive performance.

Rated at 125 watts x 7 channels, the SC-1227-K delivers plenty of power, but it's not the whole story. Where the SC-1227-K really shows its unprecedented power output capability is when driving multi-channels simultaneously without losing significant per-channel output. Class A/B amplifiers simply cannot match the efficiency of Class D3 as their power output per channel diminishes rapidly when more channels are added to the work-load. This kind of unprecedented power capability allows you to appreciate the full dynamics from any media source in a way never before possible. The ability to drive more channels, simultaneously, means you can fully reproduce all of the dynamics and impact of high definition multi-channel Dolby and DTS soundtracks with up to 7 channels of the highest quality power output available today.

Advanced Qdeo® Video Processing. Picture Perfect Whatever the Source
Using Qdeo processing technology and Pioneer's extensive video know-how makes home theater a truly immersive experience. The SC-1227-K provides video conversion from composite and component video to HDMI® for a single-wire high-definition audio and video solution as well as up to 1080p/24fps video scaling for an exceptional picture regardless of the source, creating natural and noise-free video for maximum performance and flexibility.

And with Pioneer's Advanced Video Adjust , you'll experience the very best in both high-definition and standard definition signals, with a complete suite of advanced image adjustments designed to fine-tune each of your video sources for the best possible picture.

Get Ready for 3D with the Latest HDMI® Technology

So not only do you get the most out of your existing movies and music, with the SC-1227-K you're prepared for the new generation of 3D video content.

The SC-1227-K also offers advanced HDMI conveniences like Audio Return Channel and Power Save HDMI Standby Through.

Transform your Apple Device into a Powerful Remote Control
Communicating with the SC-1227-K wirelessly through your home network, Pioneer's free iControlAV2012 app turns your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad device or select Android devices into a powerful remote control for your receiver. The all new iControlAV2012 is fully redesigned, incorporating everything from basic volume and input selection to advanced features like EQ adjustments and Internet Radio control. iControlAV2012 for iPad includes enhanced features like vertical and horizontal orientation, intuitive control of music from networked PCs as well as Internet radio control, and a super- cool finger EQ adjust screen; simply draw the EQ curve to your desired sound preference.

Ideal for Custom Home Theater Installation
The SC-1227-K was designed with an eye toward custom-installed home theater solutions, with features to match. Multi-zone capability with support for Zone2 outputs allows you to watch movies or listen to music in two rooms at once. An RS-232 bus connection allows custom installers access into the "control brain" of the SC-1227-K, for customized remote control development. The SC-1227-K is compatible with popular "whole-house" entertainment systems such as Crestron, AMX, Control 4, Universal, Savant, and RTI, and its IP capabilities allow users to control their entertainment system via a home network.

All this plus support for Pioneer Apps, 3rd party control devices, custom-ready detachable power cord, and IR in/out for universal remotes make the SC-1227-K the ultimate answer for a custom home entertainment solution.
