Reviews of the Onkyo DV-C503

    CNET Review

    March 10, 2002

    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.
