Just works
Just set up with my new amp. Worked straight away, no fuss. Only four stars as I would like to see it developed further and enhanced for an iPad app. Extra features such as an info button for each surround mode, more control buttons such as midnight and loudness settings and speaker setting control.
A great start, good for basic function and novelty but has potential to be so much more. Well done Pioneer, more development please!
Does what it says on the tin
I bought a VSX-920 today and immediately downloaded the app to try it. It does what it is currently designed to do and it does it well. I would, however like to see it offer more information about the different modes and sound fields though.
Great App - but beware, it only works with the latest Pioneer kit
Whilst I struggle to understand why we can't just use the remote, this is a good gadget particularly if you carry your iPhone with you all the time as I do. But beware, just because you have a LAN port on your AV amp or BD player does not mean that this will work. If your equipment specification does not specifically mention iControlAV you will be out of luck, mine had a peel off sticker on the front of the unit with the iControlAV logo. I assume some of the reviews complaining that the app does not work are down to this issue - i have the same problem with my slightly older BD player.
