Yes, excellent point- tubegb
on a few of those pioneer players, the CD is placed upside down for proper playback.

Pioneer DV-09 plays DVD's not CD's help
Thank you all for your input. This unit plays discs the conventional direction (label up) as it does not have the "stable platter" I actually tried a CD-r which i know shouldn't work after store bought cd's didn't play which obviously also did not work. I can get every dvd to play, even very scratched ones. No dice on the cd's though. I don't have any Redbook or SACD's to try. Music DVD's rock, but my collection is 99% conventional store bought CD's. When looking at the service manual for this model, it appears to have only one laser... pickup assembly (as pioneer calls it) part number VWY1046. I did find one here: http://www.aliexpress.com/item-img/DV-S9-VNP1580-E-VWY-1046-laser-head/1853930096.html?spm=2114.1201...# I don't know however if this is the problem. |
I'd be more likely to just buy the pickup assembly and try if this was officially my player... what I mean is that luckily the seller is offering fantastic customer service and has offered to refund my purchase price AND shipping plus send me a shipping label to send it back. OR if I so choose, we agree upon a fair price for the unit as is, which I would love if I can come up with a reasonable solution. The kicker... I'm on a time crunch for that decision or I'm just stuck with it as is at the price I bought it for, a bargain believe me, but i'd still rather not have a late 90's badass dvd player. That is of no use to me. |
