Pioneer also provided me with the AS-BT200 Bluetooth adapter, which is a small device, similar in size to a USB memory stick, that plugs into a special port on the rear panel. Since I have no subwoofer, front speakers were set to large and the distances seemed close enough. The MCACC did a pretty good job at determining my setup. Small children and pets might scurry out of the room to save their eardrums. It takes several minutes and emits some unpleasant sounds in order to calculate distances, levels, and standing waves. Like other Pioneer receivers, the 1021 features MCACC room correction software and I went ahead and ran the full automatic setup with this. Rounding out the connections on the rear panel are five HDMI inputs and one output, two component inputs, FIVE composite (for all those VHS players and 16-bit video game consoles), three RCA analog audio inputs and five digital audio inputs.Īfter getting all my connections in order, I did a quick pass through the menu system and double-checked the firmware version it was already loaded with the latest version. Unfortunately there are no pre-outs for adding a separate amp, although that is not a common feature in this price range. Also the video and audio inputs have been rearranged.
In terms of the rear panel, the cheap spring-clip binding posts for the front height channels have been replaced with binding posts. There are a few layout changes to the front façade from last year’s model, the 1020K, but nothing major. The 1021 looks like your average A/V receiver these days, with a glossy black front and two knobs, one for source select and one for volume.
