Pioneer DV-578 replaces DV-563?

BrianL · 9th August 2004, 12:14 AM

Having purchased a Pioneer DV-563 "universal" player
before Best Buy stopped handling them, I noticed today
that there is a new model, DV-578. Does everything
the other one did, but now does WMA compressed files
as well as MP3. The front looks almost identical but the
back has the jacks rearranged. Does anyone know about
its guts? I would doubt that it's that much different.

Oh, and the Pioneer parts ordering web site says the
service manual is over $100 !

Thanks, Sam.

I did a little more poking and found generally unfavorable
reviews. I'm glad I got mine while the getting was good.
