Pionner sc lx 701 factory restart

[epasi1]

Hi,
how can i perform a factory rest to my SC LX701 receiver in a way that will also revert the firmware to the one that is the default for a new device. Alternately, how can i revert the firmware version to a previus version ( i have issues with the most recent one).

Thanks

You can read the manual on the Pioneer website, or trying downloading the previous firmware update again, I doubt this will work though:

It might be that you are screwed until the next firmware update, which I wouldn't guarantee Pioneer will bring out, although they should do.

The only thing I can think of is contacting Pioneer by email or phone (which is virtually impossible from my experiences in the past), or contacting your dealer and complain. I am not sure about contacting the dealer though, because I am not sure what they can do. Basically in my view it's not fit for purpose anymore so I would complain.

I have written to Pioneer and got a definitive answer stating that resetting the device won't help and in any case, i cannot revert to an earlier version of the firmware…really disappointing
