Untill Tuesday. There was a power outage in my neighborhood, and my
entire
building and block lost power for about 2 hours. When everything came
back
online, the only thing that did not was the Pioneer, and it will not.

I don't guess you checked the fuse?

No, I don't want to take the top off since it's still in warranty. It
goes
back tomorrow, they said they will replace it.




I'm pretty steamed. I bought the extra warranty, and I have a
connection
to
where I purchased it, so I know they will simply replace it, but my
question
is, do I want another Pioneer?

I've had good luck with Adcom.

I should try something else, but since they are going to replace it, I
will
give another one a try.

Some equipment has processors inside that get scrambled. Find out if it
has a power on reset or clear. It usually requires you hold a button
down some number of seconds when you turn it on.

It doesn't. I checked the receiver, and the book, and there's no reset. The
only reset is to set the receiver back to factory settings, but it has to be
powered on to do that, and it will not power on.

My brother seems to think it's a fuse, but I dont want to take the top off.
It's going back, in the afternoon, and they are going to give me another
one. I hope it works out, because I really like this model, for my apt
size, the sound, speration and audio special effects on the "advanced" 7.1
settings are superb.

The sound is qulaity is great. It's my 4th Home Theater receiver since they
have been making them, and by far the best. So, I'm anxious to get it all
hooked back up, to enjoy weekend movies. The movies channles on most
weekends premier some good ones. Last weekend, I enjoyed the new War of the
Worlds, The new Batman and Stealth. I liked them all. I enjoy cheesy B
style action movies too. When they fire guns, the sound goes across the room
to the back and side speakers. Then, like helicopters or jet aircraft start
at the front and zoom to the back. What can I say, I love it...:-)

My ex-wife told me I would never grow up, and I think she may have been
right.
