Just saw an article today that Dirac is coming to Pioneer receivers:

Prior to this announcement, getting Dirac in your system was quite expensive. Either with a mini DSP on top of a receiver or prepro with seperate amps, or an Emotiva prepro (no immersive audio yet) where you again need seperate amps or the Arcam receiver mentioned. When I upgrade my receiver I am only interested in immersive audio, probably 7.1.4, uhd hdmi and hdcp specs for high dynamic range and some good room eq. Maybe in a year or two Pioneer with have all of this at a reasonable price with Dirac. Here's hoping.
