Pioneer Elite UHD Blu-ray Player
Pioneer Elite UHD Blu-ray™ Player displays up to 3,840 x 2,160 pixels for the highest quality video resolution. Premium audio DAC and Zero Signal Terminal work together to provide unparalleled sound quality. The Double-Layered Chassis and Rigid Under Base provide a low center-of-gravity that prevents the transfer of external vibration and offers a superior reading of the disc. Easily choose from different presets that will automatically adjust to the video quality setting best suited for your display.

UHD Blu-ray Playback
With up to 3,840 x 2,160 pixels, UHD Blu-ray’s resolution is the highest available in home video. In addition to Ultra HD Blu-ray, the UDP-LX500 is compatible with regular Blu-ray™, DVD, SACD, and audio CD, so customers can enjoy the highest video resolution and their entire digital collection on a single disc player.

6-Layered Main Circuit Board for High S/N Ratio
A 6-layered IVH thoroughly eliminate digital noise. This optimizes the digital signal wiring, minimizes GND impedance, and dramatically improves S/N ratio in audio/video signal processing. The 18 Gbps transmission through the latest HDMI standard offers precision that will exceed expectations.

Three-Block Internal Layout
The blocks for power supply, drive/digital processing, and analog audio are separated to eliminate electrical and magnetic interference between the blocks.

Ultra-Rigid Construction Without Radiation Holes
Even the holes for heat radiation are excluded to realize a flat form with optimal electric circuit design and minimum mechanical noise from the rotating system. The result is significantly low noise and an even more rigid and stable chassis structure.
Double-Layered Chassis and Rigid Under Base
The 1.6 mm-thick chassis base is reinforced with a 3 mm-thick steel plate Rigid Under Base. This Double-Layered Chassis structure provides a low center-of-gravity and overall rigidity that prevents the transfer of external vibration to the inner chassis and offers a superior reading of the disc.
SDR/HDR Presets for Optimal Display Performance
Reproduce original master quality using the video parameter Reference, or select LCD TV, OLED TV, or Projector for the video quality best suited to your display. Additionally, there are SDR/HDR presets for each video parameter that automatically switch between SDR preset and HDR according to the output signal.

Disc Information On-Screen Display
You can display the disc information on your screen by pressing and holding the remote control’s Display button. In addition to the disc’s details, you can easily check mastering information such as MaxFALL (Maximum Frame Average Light Level) and MaxCLL (Maximum Content Light Level) available on some HDR content, as well as HDMI output information.

PQLS Jitter-less Sound Transmission
With the precision quartz controller on a compatible AV receiver, Pioneer’s PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) eliminates distortion caused by timing errors. It controls the amount of audio signals from the AV receiver to the UDP-LX500, giving the best possible digital-to-analog conversion. UDP-LX500 supports PQLS 2ch Audio, Multi-Surround, and Bit-stream.

Zero Signal Terminal
The Zero Signal Terminal is a Pioneer-original feature dedicated to tuning audio and video quality without signal transmission. By connecting the Zero Signal Terminal to the audio/video input terminal of an AV receiver etc., the reference level (GND) of the audio/video signals is aligned between the two devices, and the potential difference is suppressed, allowing a precise and high-quality signal transmission.

Custom Installation
For advanced home theater control, Pioneer Elite UHD Blu-ray player is compatible with the most popular custom control companies, and offers custom installation features including IR, full two-way RS-232c, and IP control.
