Pioneer Electronics will be offering a
specially designed audio solution for owners of Microsoft's latest console gaming system.
Pioneer's
HTP-XGS1 is a 5.1 channel surround sound system custom designed for the
XBOX 360 console. It has a total power output of 600W through 5
satellite speakers: front left/right, center, and rear left/right, plus
a subwoofer for bass. The system has 2 optical inputs, 1 coaxial, an
analog input for audio and an AM/FM tuner.
The system features
internal calibration to perfect the sound output in any setting and has
a separate display to show information about what the use is
controlling. The entire system is controlled by a remote which also
works with the gaming console and is designed to match the look of the
XBOX 360 console.
Pricing on the HTP-XGS1 is expected to be set
at around $500 this coming June. Pioneer has always been a key player
in the home theater market namely with its Elite brand of audio/video
equipment. Owners of the XBOX 360 console should be tempted at a fairly
priced, if not affordable, high powered audio system such as Pioneer's
offering.
