General Comments
After about 4 months, the player would stop playing a disc in the middle of a movie or a song after about 15 minutes. The only way to restart it was to turn it off and then power it back on again. Unfortunately, it is only about 15-20 minutes later when it hangs up again. Since the labor warranty runs out after 90 days, it is not worth trying to get fixed. It sounded like an ideal machine, but the quality and reliability is no good in my opinion. When I can afford it, I will buy another DVD player, but it certainly won't be an Apex.

I had this APEX AD-703 for more than 2 years now since it was first released. It had no problem as far as picture, sound, and performance is concerned. It's true that this is a cheap brand under $200 (I've bought it for $150 over the internet). Probably, the one you bought belongs to the defective stocks that the store gave you (you know, even in manufacturing there are defective products eventhough it was tested ok, some of the reasons that products tend to degrade is the shipping, temperature, and enviro conditions when the product reach the market). This APEX AD-703 is worth your money because of this powerful features (3-disc changer, dolby digital/dts processing, cheap price, 2-mic karaoke function, multi-regional capabilities, and most importantly it can even read the PIRATED dvd or vcd movies/karaokes that I doubt any dvd players can do at a price under $200 if not you will be forced to buy expensive brands like Pioneer that cost about $1000 which is also multi-regional and has the same capabilities) So just return back your defective APEX AD-703 and you can see that you'll be enjoying to the fullest your home theater entertainment experience.
