Receipt. Good timing I guess...

disgusting that i bought it hours later and payed 479.99 vs. 179.99. Kinda like the yamaha avrs on clearance accross east and west coast , that I cant find anywhere around here. Thanks for the heads up on a better price. I might just refuse delivery now.

since already has shipping confirmation I would say its done.

Wonder how many others got this price?

already shipped.

congrats!

Hello been a few days now with the new receiver and I'm really happy with it.. Did the firmware upgrade, beautiful looking device and a lot of configurable options.. The iPad app works great and is really handy.. I wish you could do things like having a full remote on the iPad app to use the function buttons, change channels, menus etc.. but maybe in a future release..

The sounds itself is a major upgrade over the Yamaha I had before.. the setup was really detailed and seemed to work great with calibration.. Sports, music and movies all sound like they have a lot more depth...

The only issue I have is learning remotes.. I had Uverse and there doesn't seem to be a code for presets so I tried doing it manually but all that I can seem to do is get the power button working.. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong as I'm trying to do this both for uVerse and a WDTV device neither wants to learn. Any suggestions for getting this to work, I've tried various distances from each other.

Does this avr have a blue multichannel light indicator. Also, If so can someone take a snapshot of the 1121-k in the dark please. Not too many unboxings of this avr on youtube. Shocked on this.

this is awesome. i bought it for 499.99 after discount code. i wonder if i can call newegg and ask them to honor the price

I did this on Sunday. I might refuse shipment on weds. I got a Yamaha offer that I might be moving on for trade

i was told that price is now 799 and they can not honor the price unless is shows for 499 on their website. congrats to you if they honor 499 price.

Stick them with return shipping is the best way....to say thank you for the loyalty. I havemight been shopping at neweg g for over 10 years.

they charge 15% restocking for returns. I did not know that before.

Call ups and let them know you will be out of town hold at ups facility ..they send back nine days. No restock fee or take off work and sit on porch lmao. You can beat nearby at their trixkywgames if you like

Wow hell of a deal. Enjoy, as this was definitely a mistake on their part that they have to honor, no question about that.

mine is already delivered. i spoke to them about price matching but they have no price matching policy. you are among the few lucky people. I tried but did not work for me

My 1121-k for $479 is currently on "Will Hold" status at UPS. I have about 5 business days to resolve issues with newegg at this point.

Guys,

A questions and I know this is not the right thread but Im hoping the pioneer fanatics can input their two cents.

Simple question:

Yamaha RX-A1000 or Pioneer VSX-1121K

Pros and Cons.

I will start with two pros.

~Airplay
~Native gorgeous IPAD Support.

The yamaha seems to be as exciting as the denon app on IOS/Android

Sonically speaking, DSP comparision, etc?


I have access to either of them,

A yammy 1K for $300 NIB,

1121K for 455 NIB

Both are great receivers. AMP wise the Yamaha is a step up. Features wise, I think the Pioneer wins if you're an Apple guy. The iPad app really kills all the other ones on the market with exception to the Apple TV remote app. Let me know if you go Pioneer. I'd love to get a Yamaha RX-A1000 for $300!

well if i didnt have a 4311CI on my main system, i would be getting both i think,


Why doesnt denon, yamaha, onkyo take some queues from pioneer on apptastic functionality.

Denon ...doesnt even have an android app.


I love airplay though, i use it on my denon.

Just something about sending itunes, mp3s to four points in the house, outdoors, and even the garage

airplay is fantastically orchestrated. I use "airbubble" on android to emulate and airport. Just plug that into the garage system and i get airplay while working on my jeep.

Anyone running the iControlAV2 on android? I am attempting to install on my Galaxy Tab with no luck. Will not download from marketplace, says insufficient space, which is not the case. Can anyone provide as attachment here? I would think it's ok as it's free.

works fine on droid-x nice app. havent tried on asus transformer.

ill let you know.

even if i knew how to grab that .apk file it is 37mb. so it cant be posted here as attachment. would have to be fileserve or something


app installed on transformer but it scales badly. have to use 3.2 zoom to screen feature and it looks like garbage this way.

its a very big volume knob that looks like it was a hamm image on an amiga or something. well bad scaling support for honeycomb. Icecream will fix this i suppose when it is released.

Thanks. If possible can you provide the apk file? I can't even download it from marketplace and it's not available on Pioneer's site.

try installing from here?

https://market.android.com/details?i...ntrolav2&hl=en

from tablet.

Just returned my Pioneer 1121 to Newegg. The amp kept shorting no matter how many times I tried changing the speaker connections. Also hated that there was no interface to control the unit with my non apple pcs (any pc with windows will show the reciever but won't control it). Also didn't like that zone 2 going to another amp did not control the volume with iphone app. I'm going to go with the Denon unit as they have a great interface with windows pcs although iphone app is not as nice looking as the pioneer it functions just as well. Not sure why pioneer can't get an interface with windows products.

Yes, tried that it still won't download. That link initiates the download and still pushes it thru the marketplace app on my tab. Simply won't download. I emailed Pioneer directly asking for the apk but they state they don't support tablets (not sure why since they support the Ipad). I bet this will indeed work as every app that I tried for a phone has worked on my tab; just need to get a hold of the apk to install directly from memory card.

ill work on it for you.

....the apkfile.

iControl2AV1.0

copy over to sd / internal memory, ftp, or adb push the file to your tablet.

Have fun!

updated post above.

There were at least two of us that got lucky at the $179.99 price. I ordered mine Saturday am using the the promo code, my 1121 showed up at my door today. I am glad Newegg honors their prices, some places cancel orders when the deal is too good. I have always had great service from Newegg, they will continue to get my business, whether it is an awesome deal or just regular good old prices.

Now I just need to figure out how to make this thing fit in my cabinet, this is a deep receiver, much deeper than the a receiver that it is replacing. I think I am going to be getting out the jig saw and cutting out the back of my cabinet.
