Review 4 of 15
Price Paid:
$500.00 Summary: I first tried the Pioneer DV626D after good reviews in magazines. But when I installed it, I was very disappointed by the very noisy mechanism when reading DVDs. I came back to the store and exchange it with a Marantz DV4000, the only DVD player absolutely silent (Pioneer, Panasonic or Philips DVD player are really noisy compare to this one).
This DVD player is really great: - Even the night with absolutely no noise, you can't hear the tray mechanism when reading DVD. - This plyer really look fine with this quiet hifi look. - The sound and image are very good. - all kind of CDs or DVDs are read (CDR, CDRW, audio DVD, etc.).
There are only 2 minor bad things about this player: - The mechanism is really slow (5 seconds to open the tray and 1 or 2 to start to read, for example) but you only do it once when you want to see a DVD. - You have to point exactly the remote to the direction of the player (but in general, there is no obstacle between you and the player).
If you are very sensitive to the noise of the mechanism (like me), and you want a very good player (especially for the sound, but the image is really sharp too), do not hesitate, this is the good choice. Strengths: Absolutely silent, nice look, good sound and image, read CDR and CDRW Weaknesses: slow to use, have to point exactly the remote Similar Products Used: DV626D
