services like Pandora® music service to a host of control
options and Pioneer-exclusive apps, the network-connected VSX-53 has the

theater.
AirPlay
AirPlay is a revolutionary way of enjoying your music anywhere in
your home, and the VSX-53 is AirPlay compatible right out of the box.
Wirelessly push music from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or your iTunes®-running
Mac or PC directly to the receiver so you can enjoy all your favorite
music in your living room through the big speakers. Use your iPhone or
iPad device’s familiar controls to change the volume and switch songs,
all while viewing iTunes album art on your TV. And with the VSX-53’s
multi-zone capability, you can even enjoy your iTunes music in a second
room while you’re watching the latest Blu-ray title in another.
DLNA Certified® 1.5
Since music is meant to be shared, not stored, the VSX-53 is DLNA 1.5 Certified, which means you can pull your MP3, WMA, AAC, and even high-resolution FLAC and WAV music files directly from your Windows-based PC to the receiver via your home network. Use the VSX-53‘s convenient on-screen display to browse through your music library, complete with album art, while your living room is filled with pure, high-resolution audio. Network connection can be made through the Ethernet port or with the AS-WL300 wireless LAN adapter (sold separately).

Elite Video Processing
Drawing on Elite’s long history as an industry leader in high

enhancement and fine-tuning for each video source into the VSX-53 to
maximize your TV’s performance.
The VSX-53 converts analog video signals to HDMI and scales both
analog and digital signals up to 1080p/24fps to best match your TV’s

winning Qdeo™ technology provides a truly immersive viewing experience,

Thanks to Elite Advanced Video Adjust, any video signal that goes
into the VSX-53 simply comes out better. Video signals are optimized by

LCD and Front Projection TV’s to maximize their performance. And working
in conjunction with Elite Advanced MCACC sound tuning, Advanced Video
Adjust provides subtle noise reduction and detail enhancements based on
the kind of display and your distance from it.
Stream Smoother technology is specifically designed to reduce picture
distortion and enhance images while viewing low bit-rate streaming
video content from sites that offer it such as YouTube.
Elite understands that extraordinary audio and video reproduction is
merely the price of entry. With unprecedented level of control and
sophistication for the serious enthusiast, the VSX-53 delivers all these
technologies to create the quintessential home theater experience, both
