Pioneer DV-C503 review: Pioneer DV-C503

Pioneer DV-C503

Five-disc changer; crisp picture; clean sound; a gaggle of features.

Dog-ugly front-panel display; cluttered remote; no zoom.

Affordable, versatile, and easy to use: this is what to expect from a DVD player.

Piece of crapola - if I could use harsher words, I would.

It did play DVDs okay for a while.

The shuffle feature quits and CDs skip during play mode.

Consumer review (epinions.com)

Good in theory, disappointing in practice

I bought this changer about 18 months ago and loved it at first. I wanted to have a multi-disc changer so I could run lots of music back to back without having to manually change it.

5-disc changer functionality, low cost

Bulky, Balky (needs coddling to work properly)

Now I don't have to get out of my chair!

Well made, reliable, 5 disc capacity, and excellent sound/picture quality.

Very large and slow loading.

Consumer review (epinions.com)

Now I don't have to get out of my chair!

Being a big fan of vcd's, I decided I wanted more than a single disc dvd player. A local discount store had the truck load of Pioneer DV-C503's in, so I decided to buy one. Already having a Apex 700, I decided to put the Pioneer in the living room and...

Well made, reliable, 5 disc capacity, and excellent sound/picture quality.

Very large and slow loading.
