Is Onkyo mainly using the Pioneer brand for its Car Audio and DJ series? I'm sad that I missed out on the speakers though it looks like Amazon has some speakers left. But it is becoming more of a shadow of its former glorious self. I really miss my sets of floor standing speakers but was unable [it would have been better if I had a working brain at the time when I suddenly had to put things in storage] and donated them but have my small set. but looking off and on for other speakers for the main HT rather than my listening setup. |

Yes, all inquiries for recent gears go to Pioneer but everything "vintage" (as in 10+ years) goes to Onkyo with very limited support. Seems like they bought the brand more than the business (the LD trademark logo expired and was never re-registered!). Julien |

Pioneer DJ is the only thing left that carries any respect for the name. In fact their DJ stuff is still pretty good, particularly the large flagship controllers…particularly in gold. I think Pioneer DJ is another company in some way. |

I still need to get a Elite BDP sometime. Also should have kept my DVD with rosewood side panels but at the time I was hardly using it. even though its not in HT at the moment my RA-J7001T is one of my favorites stands ever more than the Sony one I had long ago. it survived storage and the move but the little one I just couldn't take with me. i forgot what model that was. Pioneer will always be a classic in many ways and now more so if it turns into something like RCA nothing more than a footnote in the modern world. |

Oh well... even 10+ years Onkyo/Integra goes to ... we don't support that type of hardware anymore. Home Theater is kind of dead now. People go mostly streaming + sound bar. This is the MP3 age of video. Julien |
