Owners of the Pioneer DV 37,I was wondering adout the audio quality of this player? I know the video qualities are good on this unit. I'm thinking about using this player for both video and cd play back. Or should I buy a dedicated cd player for audio play? Can this player's audio compete w/ a Cambridge 500se or the new Music Hall cd player? Those players are within my budget.
Follow Ups:
I have a DV37 which I sent off to Dan Wright for Level II mods and also
he put in three Bybee's while there. I only used it as a transport so I couldn't comment on it's analog performance via those RCA out's Depends on your processor or DAC's. It has separate power supplies and is very well made (as is the case with all Elite products). I use it now as a backup unit for my EAD TheaterVision P DVD transport. I highly recommend sending your unit to Dan (if you buy one) and you will not be sorry. I have done A/B comparisons with the EAD and they are virtually identical (but the TheaterVision P is several $$$ more). I changed from the DV37 as I wanted the Silicon Image 503 deinterlacing chip as opposed to the Genesis chip (or whatever "pure cinema" chip the Elite uses). As to your question of dual use - I for one think it best to have separate transports with separate preamps (DACS) as PCM and HT are so totally different when it comes to listening experience. But, it costs more (as always).
I Have used the DV-37 DV-38A & The DV-09 & the DV-47A Elite's & Found they do quite well with red book cd. The Music Hall(which I've demoed) isn't that great sounding to me & no better than the Cambridge. The best performance on the Elite Gear Goes to The DV-09 as a transport,the DV-38a for DVD-audio playback, The DV-47a for best( universal) options/filters/ Upsampling & DVD-A & SACD. The DV-37a is well built & has The Famous Legato Link Textured sonics: some may not care for.....FF Try.... Then Buy
