Audio capabilities include two-channel simulated surround sound and an MTS decoder, which filters out unwanted noises and enables the player to perform in stereo sound. Outputs for Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS decoders are included. When connected to a capable stereo receiver, the Apex AD-600A will play any source in Dolby Digital 5-channel and DTS digital surround sound.

As a DVD/CD player, the Apex AD-600A features zoom control and up to 8x rewind/fast-forward. V-chip technology lets concerned parents monitor what their children watch. When it comes to MP3s, however, the Apex AD-600A lacks fast-forward or rewind options, and only supports eight-character file names. Shuffle play is supported in any mode.

Component output jacks maximize digital video source signals for full-color, high-resolution images. Standard audio-video and composite jacks are included. The Karaoke feature and two external microphone inputs let you belt out your favorite songs in front of an audience or in the privacy of your home. The remote control operates all of the Apex AD-600A's major functions. A one-year warranty covers parts and labor.
