Orange Peel Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Picked up the Elite 53TX tonight, and just got done hooking everything up and auto calibrating it, and watching a demo, and all I can say is WOW! Man, this receiver rocks!!!!! I love the sound it produces, nice and clear, LOUD as hell, and just bad a$$!!!!!! I love the looks, everything about the thing is amazing. Definite sound difference over the Harman Kardon AVR 520, the Elite seems to be more in your face and whatnot, the HK's definitely are warmer for sure! They both sound amazing, I love the HK's, and will most likely own another one in the future, but for now, me and the piano finish Elite are a happy couple. The features rock, quality of the product is amazing, heavy as hell too! GREAT power and control, easy OSD menu, and much more. I am very happy with it and can't wait to play with it some more! Watched the THX intro on Toy Story, man that is LOUD and SO SWEET! Well, I just thought I would share my excitement with you all, next up very soon, Dual SVS 20-39 CS+'s added to the PC+ setup, along with the S1000 amp, man I can't wait!!!!!!

kenratboy Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Very nice!!! New toys are the best. We have a Pioneer reciever downstairs, and I really like it. The one you have must be a real beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Peel Posted October 15, 2003 Author Share Posted October 15, 2003 Thanks guys. KRB - Yeah the Pioneer is definitely bigger than the HK was, longer too, this thing barely fits in my audio rack. Oh, did I mention it's HEAVY But I am really enjoying it, just gotta figure everything out now, it's loaded with options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my game in high school! Nobody could touch me! What price did you give it away for? Or better yet, WHO did you sell it to so I can hunt them down and take it from them KILL BILL style.

Orange Peel Posted October 17, 2003 Author Share Posted October 17, 2003 I still have it, no one bought it. If you want it you can have it, asking $750 plus shipping, which could be around $150 or so. If you buy it I will help with the shipping though, I REALLY need to sell it now!!! I will PM you too, here's some pics... http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki24.jpg http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki23.jpg http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki22.jpp http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki2.jpg http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki25.jpg http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki26.jpg http://members.cox.net/scott2049/images/ki27.jpg Brand new t-molding, new buttons and joysticks, new locks and keys.

bnewt Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 I have the 45tx, which is last years version of yours. I really like the looks and the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelerFan Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 I know Pioneer is coming out with the 59TXi to replace the 49TXi, does anyone know if they are coming out with a 57TX to replace the 47TX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
