Three new Home Cinema Systems play your DVD, DivX Movies and Digital Music
Pioneer enhances its DVD Home Cinema range with three new models:
- DCS-590: 5.1 DVD Home Cinema System with HDMI, USB, Advanced MCACC and Tallboy Speakers
- DCS-585: 5.1 DVD Home Cinema System with HDMI, USB, Advanced MCACC and Satellite Speakers
- DCS-FS30: 2.1 DVD Player Home Cinema System with USB and Slim Front Speakers
Pioneer introduces three DVD home cinema systems, combining utility and versatility with the capability to be set up in minutes. The new line-up includes the 5.1-channel DCS-590 and DCS-585 that will immerse the user in sight and sound by utilising an innovative measurement technology to calibrate to any home environment. With elegant, slim speakers the 2.1-channel DCS-FS30 is designed to be the perfect complement for any flat screen TV.
For an original cinema experience at home, a sophisticated system of perfectly matched components is essential. Pioneer’s new home cinema systems are carefully coordinated to reproduce every nuance precisely as the director intended.

Versatile home entertainment
As multimedia entertainment comes in all shapes and sizes, it’s good to know that Pioneer’s DVD home cinema systems are designed to support the newest and most widespread formats. The DCS 590, DCS-585 and DCS-FS30 are capable of playing back entire DVD and music collections, including DivX movies. An easily accessible front USB port enables ripping CDs directly to MP3 files on a USB memory device at up to 320 KB per second.

To make sure nothing gets lost in transmission, the new systems feature a HDMI interface, guaranteeing lossless transfer of highly detailed digital audio and video signals through a single cable. Advanced upscaling adds a new dimension to DVDs by elevating sharpness, colour and contrast to create 1080p levels of detail.
A rich auditory experience
Pioneer’s dedication to sound excellence is clearly reflected in its new home cinema line-up. To provide a rich soundscape, all models are equipped with a high power amplifier and internal Dolby Digital and DTS audio decoders. Including some of the key audio features that were previously only available in Pioneer’s receivers, both the DCS-590 and DCS-585 incorporate a Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration system (MCACC), a sophisticated technology that actively ‘listens’ and creates a soundscape automatically adjusted and optimised to the acoustics of the user’s home entertainment space.
Downloads, recordings and user-generated content can all be enjoyed in outstanding sound quality. The Advanced Sound Retriever function in all three models enhances compressed music formats such as MP3, Windows Media Audio or MPEG-4 AAC (cf. iTunes) and restores these files to their original quality and richness, while Auto Level Control equalises volume level differences between tracks.
Pioneer’s new home cinema systems offer different speaker combinations to fit any entertainment space. With Front Stage Surround Advance they can create a strikingly real and immersive audio environment without placing the speakers around the room. All speakers can be positioned in front, alongside the TV screen to free up space and eliminate the visual clutter of cables.
Up-to-date connectivity
Focusing on connectivity, all three models include an optical input, which means a games console or set top box can be easily connected to the system’s main unit. What’s more, the new home cinema systems are completely Bluetooth ready. The AS-BT100 optional Bluetooth adapter allows wireless A2DP music streaming from compatible devices, such as a mobile phone or laptop.
For straightforward operation these home cinema systems support the connectivity feature KURO LINK which gives access to the main functions of compatible Pioneer equipment with a single remote control.
Refreshing design
Truly lifting the viewing environment, the DCS-590, DCS-585 and DCS-FS30 feature a polished black finish, adding to a clean and sophisticated look – with nothing to distract from home entertainment.
DCS-FS30 with adjustable, slim speakers:
a perfect complement to your flat screen TV
The DCS-FS30 comes with a set of height adjustable, slim speakers, while the DCS-590 includes four sophisticated tall speakers and a centre speaker. The DCS-585 creates a clean setting with two centre speakers (both via one connection) and four small stackable satellite speakers, which can all be positioned in the front for a minimalist and discreet viewing space. In addition, all systems are equipped with a compact, yet powerful down-firing subwoofer.
Availability
The DCS-590, DCS-585 and DCS-FS30 home cinema systems will be available in August.
