Reviews of the Onkyo DV-C503
-
CNET Review
The Good: Decent MP3 CD, CD-R, and CD-RW support; respectable connectivity options.
The Bad: Badly designed remote; no whole-carousel random play; artifacts in 4:3 mode; does not pass blacker-than-black video test.
The Bottom Line: Despite a couple of video problems and poor ergonomics, Onkyo's DV-C503 would be an acceptable value if you could find it at a clearance price. Unfortunately, that's a big if.
Manufacturer: Onkyo USA Corporation
Part number: DVC503
