Will this work with older Pioneer stereo receivers? Specifically, the VSX405?

Expect it will. It's listed for compatibility with almost everything but the newest models. It also has three settings for various equipment

I have never tried with receivers, but I don't think so. It works with all the TV's that I tried!

I have an old Pioneer receiver model SX-626 and they work awesome with it. I dont know about yours but they should work well with any receiver.

Stephen G., I'm interested in connecting 2 receivers and switching between them. I have a modern home theater receiver (Yamaha RX-V477) and a vintage receiver (Realistic STA-76 circa 1975). Each one does some things better than the other and I want to easily switch between them depending on what I want to do (like play vinyl on the vintage) and watch movies on the home theater receiver. If you know of something that can do this, please let me know. Thanks.

I am using a Pioneer 7-channel receiver whose model number is VSX 816 I bought 7 years ago. These Bose speakers run well with this receiver. If you want more bass, you can buy an additional sub woofer for perfect sound.

Yes this should work with your receiver. I have two of them and they work great.

CAUTION. This particular Pioneer receiver CHANGES THE FRAME RATE to 24 fps - which may be why it is discontinued. Consequently, anything at 30, 48, or 60 fps (e.g. from satellite or off-air TV or blu-ray) is degraded. News scrolling at the bottom of the screen may appear jerky. See Pioneer VSX-1124 on Amazon for superior product at much lower price.

It should work fine with the old receiver. I would not guarantee that it would, though.

Yes, it will work on all of the Pioneer AVH-X models as well. Thank you, -Matt

There is a long thread in avsforum about this receiver. They talk about a possible recall. According to what I have read there, Pioneer says there is no recall. There is a firmware update which should be downloaded, however.The product page has a link to the firmware update:http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Home/AV-Receivers/Pioneer+Receivers/VSX-1021-K

Check the rear of the receiver. If there is an RCA connector marked "sub out" or "lfe out" or similar, it will work just fine. It will probably be yellow in color. I'd be very surprised if there wasn't such a connector on any modern receiver.

It should pair pretty much with any receiver. A vintage piece with a 'Phono' device input will most likely *not* need a phono preamp unit -- which will be necessary for recent receivers.

Yes, it will connect to older amplifiers/receivers. Just connect the RCA leads to the aux input. That's what I did with a 36 year old tube receiver, with no problem at all.

If your receiver has a 1/4" input, then yes. If it has RCA-type plugs (red/yellow/white) then this will not work without some splicing, which you probably don't want to do.

John I'm rather old school as my pop It is a possible that you can with that but I really didn't like it due to little RCA or stereo jacks My advice is to go with a pioneer onkyo or Sony receiver on amazon and look at the back display so you can make a better choice for your next stereo. Hope this really helps you out because I had sent about four back before I became very satisfied with this pioneer vsx50 elite Seriously look into and take my advice I even bought that tpro and returned it Wish you the best.

It should. Mine worked with everything I put through it, including dolby digital 5.1, dts 5.1, and pcm 2.0. Note that the input is the optical, output is coax. I think a lot of people complaining it didn't work are trying to use it backwards.
