A heads up

Anyone with a UE 22 fault in their Pioneer home theater receiver should make sure to get it fixed under warranty. The cost of the board replacement for an SC 67 is 409 bucks just for the part plus 189 bucks for labor plus tax on the part. So over 600 bucks. Since UE 22 is a common issue with Pioneer receivers don't let warranty expire. But be prepared for a wait till hell freezes over. My SC67 a 2K retail unit under warranty is in the shop with a 2-4 month estimate for the parts. So keep that in mind B4 choosing Pioneer

Besides ridiculously rapid price depreciation on electronics, this sort of thing is precisely why my rule is to NEVER pay more than $150 range for ANY AV surround RECEIVER, period!! This way, when it does fail, it becomes a throw away, and you simply buy another...Cost of doing business. And besides, theres any number of dirt cheap, used ,more than adequate performing, feature laden receivers on the used market, that theres no need to spend more bucks, IMO. Sooooooo...
Yeah... Aint paying no $600 to fix some midfi surroundy sound noise maker.
