Pioneer’s two new iPhone®–certified tabletop sound systems and new Sound Bar with wireless subwoofer are engineered for critical listeners who seek the best sound performance, even from today’s new media devices and compressed music files.

Pioneer XW-NAS3

Pioneer’s First Works with iPhone™ Certified Sound System

Combining stellar sound performance and exceptional build quality, Pioneer’s first iPhone and iPod® certified tabletop sound systems, the XW-NAS3 and XW-NAS5, have been finely tuned and calibrated for optimum sound. Pioneer’s EX speaker designers spent extensive time sound-tuning the systems to appeal specifically to North American preferences for high fidelity with rich bass, wide frequency response and dynamic musical sound-field.

Pioneer’s two new iPhone®–certified tabletop sound systems and new Sound Bar with wireless subwoofer are engineered for critical listeners who seek the best sound performance, even from today’s new media devices and compressed music files.

The new 2.1-channel full-range speaker systems feature a dynamic digital amplifier and integrated subwoofer for faithful reproduction of bass and lower frequencies. Both units are Bluetooth®-ready for wireless control and streaming capabilities of music files from the new iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 2G and other Bluetooth enabled models via an optional accessory (BT-100).

Pioneer’s new sound systems employ component and composite video output for playback of stored movies, TV shows and other video files from the docked digital device. For the finely tuned ear, the XW-NAS5 also features Pioneer’s proprietary sound enhancement features, including Advanced Sound Retriever (ASR) and Auto Level Control (ALC), developed specifically to improve the listening experience of portable audio devices in the home.

Pioneer’s First Sound Bar

Pioneer’s continued commitment to develop and introduce innovative products that advance the home theater experience has led to the launch of its HTP-SB300, Sound Bar speaker solution. The powerful 3.1-channel system integrates 250 watts of power, dual center channel speakers, a wireless subwoofer and dual HDMI inputs for simple connection, high-resolution audio and video output. With aesthetics and sound quality in mind, the Sound Bar produces robust virtual surround sound in an elegant two piece, wire-free design. Staying true to Pioneer’s audio expertise and the industry’s audio trends, the system decodes the latest HD audio formats: DTS®, Dolby Digital® PLUS and Dolby® TrueHD. Intended for on-wall installation to accompany 32” – 37” displays, the Sound Bar is ideal for second room audio or for a small living room.

Pioneer’s Works with iPhone-certified sound systems and Sound Bar will be available in Winter 2009, pricing to be announced.
