I think that this is a great product. Pioneer is really becoming the consumer brand I think. It looks like they are really focused on the mainstream consumers, and that's a good thing IMO. Sure this thing is never going to win any awards for sonic fidelity, but it seems like a great HTIB, and look ma, no more wires. I'd love to be able to get rid of some wires my self. Also they don't seem to have made the system too proprietary. You could upgade as the need hits you. The lack of the sub out is a bit disconcerting, but there are ways around it, and that power figure is laughable the way they skewed it, worst measurement I've seen from a ligitimate manufacturer to date. But this is the kind of setup to bring in more consumers. It seems like it can give em a taste that could leave many wanting more, and could also bring many over to pioneer. I bet this thing will kick the butt of most other HTIB's near it, and the price is not outrageous. Good review Clint, as always.
