Sony DAV-FC7 user reviews

Cons Stopped working shortly after the product went out of warranty. Sony was no help at all. Do not buy this piece of junk. I will never buy another Sony product due to their total lack of help. on February 10, 2005  | Read full review

Cons Slow. Freezes often. Will not turn off, flashes "standby" ad infinatum until you unplug it. Now it will not play DVDs at all or eject the ones in there. I took it back to Best Buy (their service is so-so) who mailed it back to Sony, twice so far. I have on January 12, 2005  | Read full review

Cons The DVD mode rarely works. Can't get my CDs/DVDs to eject. I'll never by this slot-load type system again. on January 12, 2005  | Read full review

Cons The DVD/CD malfunctioned from day 1, even after being "repaired". It freezes the machine, and you have to unplug it and wait a day to retrieve the discs. Poorly designed 5 CD changer. on December 25, 2004  | Read full review

Cons I should have believed the reviews before I bought this system. Two months after I got it it started the standby problem and would not turn on unless I unplugged it. Also I could no longer play DVD's. I purchased it at Tweeter and they have had it for the on September 10, 2004  | Read full review

Cons Same problem as others... Worked for a few months then flashed standby and wouldn't allow discs to be inserted or ejected. Had it repaired by Sony. Broke again a month later (same problem). Sony fixed again and returned. Now one month later it has happen on September 1, 2004  | Read full review

Cons I don't see anything wrong. I wanted an awesome sound system for under $400 that had progressive scan DVD and digital audio in and I got it. on September 1, 2004  | Read full review

Cons At the price point and overall set performance, it's simply not worth it. OSD setup requires PhD. on June 18, 2004  | Read full review

Cons Worked for about 2 weeks, then the changer would not load or eject discs. When it was turned off it would flash "standby" forever you couldn't turn it back on until after it was unplugged. Fry's replace it. 3 weeks later the new unit failed in exactly the on March 26, 2004  | Read full review

Cons NONE AT ALL!!! EVERYTHING IS PERFECT WITH THIS UNIT. SIDE NOTE: THIS UNIT IS DESIGNED FOR SMALL ROOMS, LIKE 30X30 OR SMALLER. on February 24, 2004  | Read full review

Cons Proprietary speaker cables connections cause an issue if you need longer cable runs for the rear sats. The remote takes some time to get used to. Not really a lot to gripe about at this price. I'm confused by some of the other reviews in here because y on January 22, 2004  | Read full review

Cons Surround speaker wires may be too short in larger rooms. Slot-loading DVD player, while cool, take a long time to load/eject discs. on January 20, 2004  | Read full review

Cons awful sound -- absence of equalization (even rudimentary bass and treble controls) makes this system unacceptable as a home audio system on January 14, 2004  | Read full review

Cons Not enough sound - you can have a conversation with the thing at full blast. The "600 watts" means 6 speakers capable of 100 watts each, not 600 amplified watts. No control of treble and base levels. on December 29, 2003  | Read full review

Cons ...just not well. Muddy subwoofer, lack of tweeters in the sats, SLOW loading/unloading of discs, confusing remote, the list goes on. on December 18, 2003  | Read full review

Cons Not enough functions w/ speakers/sub. sound is only good on action movies on November 19, 2003  | Read full review
