"Impressive Pioneer Small Speaker System"

By Mendelson Tiu | Published:18/04/2008

After purchasing an HD television set and a player that can display videos in high definition, the next step is to invest in a home theatre system that is a stunner in terms of looks and features. Pioneer’s HTP-LX70 certainly looks the part, but does it perform up to par with other home theatre kits in the market?

The Pioneer speaker system has a piano-black glossy finish similar to its Kuro range, which complements any television screen (although it gives a subtle hint that it is designed for a Pioneer screen). The satellites are small and can be placed just about anywhere in the room, although it is prone to fingerprint marks and dust. The subwoofer is big and heavy, which may pose a problem while putting the system together.

Out of the box, the HTP-LX70 comes with four dodecahedron shaped satellites that claims to deliver an ‘Omni-directional' sound, a subwoofer, a display unit, and a remote control.

The subwoofer can be considered as the ‘heart' of the speaker system, as it contains all the connecting ports to make the system work. Hidden on its side panel are two control out jacks, two digital optical in jacks, an AM Loop antenna terminal, an FM antenna socket, an analogue audio in jacks, speaker terminals, and an AC in jack for powering the whole system up. Users can also find three HDMI in connectors, an HDMI out connector, and a system connector on the rear panel of the subwoofer.
