Some speakers are like a work of art that you'll want to show off. That's certainly the case with Pioneer's S-31-LR Floorstanding Towers. Measuring over 30 inches high, these are speakers that aren't easy to hide. However, you won't want to -- assuming you pair them with the right receiver.
Thankfully, Amazon has packaged up these tall boys with the Denon AVR-3311CI Home Theater Receiver. Think that sounds like a nice package? You won't believe your ears when we tell you the price. For a limited time, Amazon is throwing in the speakers for free (nothing!) when you buy the receiver. So for a total of $1199, you'll get both products and save yourself $749.99. That's a nice price, indeed. Find out more about this deal on Amazon:
We love this deal because it includes one of our favorite products of 2010, Denon's 7.2-channel AVR-3311CI receiver. We gave this unit the Biggie Award for its performance, which includes 875 watts (125 per channel) of sound and 1080p upconversion action, via six HDMI 1.4a inputs and one output. All of those inputs provide 3D passthrough support your Blu-ray 3D player and other 3D-capable devices, as well as Audio Channel Return. Connect the receiver to your home network, and you can enjoy online content, via your Blu-ray player, gaming console, or other web-enabled devices. Other audio content is also available through HD Radio or the component's iPod and iPhone Direct Connectivity.
If you don't want to dock your iPod, this receiver is AirPlay-ready, which means you can tap into your iTunes library directly through Denon's included remote. Just note that this feature requires a $49.99 firmware upgrade.
Other out-of-the-box features include support for the latest HD audio formats, as well as Dolby Pro Logic IIz and Audyssey DSX. Audyssey MultEQ XT can also help with the perfect setup, via the included microphone.
Before we gave this one the Biggie, our own Dennis Burger got to test out the AVR-3311CI, calling it "very nearly the perfect receiver." He liked the various features, noting the exceptional sound quality and build. To find out more about the receiver, check out his full AVR-3311CI review or Amazon's product page:
