PIONEER - DCS585

One remote for your full entertainment system.

KURO LINK is made possible via the single HDMI cable connection between your
flat-screen TV and your other entertainment devices.

* Other brands of TV and home entertainment components also work with the KURO
LINK function (here’s a list)

USB Yes

CD -> USB Recording Yes

MCACC (+) Yes (Advanced)

MCACC stands for Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration System.

It´s an automatic sound field adjustment system that enables you to precision-tune
your system to your living room, just like a sound professional, but with minimum
effort.

A microphone monitors the sound environment and an equaliser (either 5 or 9-band,
depending on which model of amplifier you have) optimally adjusts the sound
parameters.

The result sounds like a professional recording engineer has fine-tuned your
amplifier or home cinema system.

MCACC was created as a joint effort between ourselves and professional sound
engineers at AIR Studios; it´s unique to Pioneer, so you won´t find it on any
other products.

RDS Tuner (FM/AM) (+) Yes

This convenient function of RDS with EON can switch the tuner automatically
to a station on a network the moment it starts broadcasting your specified type
of programming - even while you are listening to another source such as LD,
radio, CD or cassette, etc.

Power Consumption (in use / standby) (+) 55W / 0.73W

Caring for the environment is important. It´s why we are a Sustainable Energy
Partner of the European Commission.

What this means is that we´ve committed to reduce power consumption in standby
modes. The less energy we consume, the better for the environment.

Surround Sound

Dolby Pro Logic Surround (+) Yes

Dolby Pro Logic Surround puts you in the ambience of a cinema wtthout actually
being there. Operating on the same principle acoustic systems of most premium
first-run cinemas, this remarkable feature decodes sound data acontained in
Dolby surround video software and produces four distinct outputs [front left/right,
rear (two speakers) and front centre].

Dolby Pro Logic Surround II (+) Yes

A matrix decoding system that extracts 5.1 channel surround sound from a variety
of sound sources, including 2-channel sources such as Stereo TV broadcasts,
video tapes and CDs. Pro Logic II uses matrix decoding to put the surround rear
channels in stereo and covers the full frequency range during playback, radical
improvements over Pro Logic.

Dolby Digital (+) Yes

The current surround sound quality decoding standard, Dolby Digital means movie
theatre sound performance for a home cinema. The listener will be wrapped in
surround sound by 5.1-channel audio sound compression technology.

Depending on the speakers, the front left and right, centre, rear left and
right speakers can span frequencies from 20 Hz - 20 kHz and there is a dedicated
subwoofer channel for additional low frequency sound effects. Extra features
mean not only stunning soundtracks but also additional language tracks on one
disc.

DTS (+) Yes

DTS 5.1-channel playback decoding technology has rapidly gained popularity thanks
to its dynamic sound impact that flies at the listener from left, right and
centre surround speakers.

Open up the doors of digital home cinema and super surround sound with any Pioneer
DVD-Video player and A/V amplifier/receiver which can handle DTS and DTS ES
encoded digital audio data streams.

Advanced Movie:

Reproduces a mid-sized movie theatre environment.

Advanced Music:

Simulates the acoustic environment of a large concert hall.

Expanded:

This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to stereo sources. The
overall effect builds a dynamic and broad sound space, allowing two-channel
(stereo) signals to imitate a five speaker sound. Use with Dolby Pro Logic for
a stereo surround effect. You can also use with Dolby Digital sources for a
wider stereo field than the Surround modes.

Sports mode:

Sports lovers will want to use this mode when watching their favourite game.
It gives you the impression that you´re at the statium, in the middle of the
action.

TV Surround:

You can use this mode to give surround sound to mono or stereo TV audio sources.

Phones Surround:

This is very similar to the Virtual Surround mode, and is available when you´re
listening through headphones to create an overall surround sound effect.

5-Channel Stereo:

This can be selected to give powerful multi-speaker sound to a stereo source
with equal power delivered to all the speakers. It is especially suited to music
sources with deep bass and a strong rhythmic feel.

Virtual Surround:

When you select this mode, you will hear a surround sound effect produced from
the two front speakers only. When selected, you won´t hear any sound from the
other speakers in your system.

Virtual Surround Back:

The Virtual Surround Back effect simulates 6.1 surround channel listening, giving
the impression that there is a surround back speaker in your system when listening
to a 5.1 channel source.

Dialogue Enhancement:

With Dialogue Enhancement mode, centre channel sounds appear to project from
the TV, i.e. at ear level, for enhanced dialogue reproduction.
