As Lazarus28 says, either machine is excellent, and the choice depends on whether you want DVD-A output. I have a DV-37 and think it's an outstanding unit (often available discounted for $650-700). The recent issue of "Stereophile Guide to Home Theater" chose the DV-37 as the best DVD player under $1000 (the winner overall was the Ayre D-1, which retails for $7500-11,000 depending on features).
difference in Pioneer Elite dvd players
Can someone tell me what the difference is between the Dv-37 and the Dv-38 Pioneer Elite dvd players. That is besides the huge price difference! I'm in the mood to buy a good dvd player and don't know enough to make an intelligent decision. Thank you for your input.
