'Tis the season to get yourself a decent AV receiver. After all, haven't you been extra good this year? Even the naughty deserve some nice AV equipment, which is why Amazon is offering up an incredible deal on the Pioneer VSX-1020-K 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver.

This AV receiver is listed as Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day, which means you can save big on one of the best-reviewed receivers on Amazon.

The Pioneer VSX-1020-K features 7.1 channels of premium audio -- or you can do 5.1 and create a second zone with two channels. Other features include 3D support, Anchor Bay and PureCinema video processing, and connectivity features via Ethernet and a front USB port. There's also the option to tie in Bluetooth devices, if you want to add in the optional AS-BT100 adapter.

This component also welcomes all of your other AV devices, via six HDMI inputs and support for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Audio, as well as Dolby Pro Logic IIz. It's also important to note that this is a "Made for iPod/iPhone" certified device, meaning that it's easy to incorporate your favorite iOS device, as well as use the free iControlAVR app.

Our own Greg Robinson reviewed the VSX-1020-K when it was first released, giving it 3.5 (out of 4) stars. He said it is "one compelling package" and called it a "sexy receiver."
