DAV-FC7 high pitched whine
(1 out of 5) by P. A. Wakim on Mar 25, 2008 (Seattle, WA USA)I have the Sony Dream System DAV-FC7, and now its experiencing a continuous high pitched whine on all inputs except dvd, even when no input cables are connected. It seems to be a common problem as its mentioned on many web forums. A piece of JUNK, I will never buy Sony again.

Recommend that you do not purchase this machine
(1 out of 5) by K. Newman on Aug 12, 2007 (Uncasville, CT United States)The machine exhibits substantial mechanical problems after less than 1 year of minimal use; unable to eject DVD's, the machine stays in "Standy Mode" until I manually unplug it. I strongly recommend that you don't purchase this. It seems very unlike SONY to produce such a piece of trash.
Don't Buy - unless gift for Ex-wife
(1 out of 5) by Top Sleep on Apr 8, 2007 (Florida)Sounds like a broken record about this machine - but when powered on the DVD display blinks twice and then goes blank. At this time and for some time later (maybe days or weeks) the DVD function won't work - no eject, no insert - no play!!
If you want one, I will sell you mine - certified not to be working on arrival.

Hello....Recall please
(2 out of 5) by Carol Ewald on Jan 23, 2007I can't believe that Sony has not done something about this. Our system has the same CD and power problems! I have already mounted the speakers on the walls and would love to just replace the unit with something compatible. I used to always buy Sony products but after this piece of junk, I'm looking elsewhere for dependable electronics

(1 out of 5) by L. Stedman on Jan 6, 2007 (Chicago, IL)I'm sorry to say that I too have seen the 'standby' glitch but in the past I was able to unplug the system and power it back on to fix the problem. UNTIL TODAY
Now when I power on the system it flashes 'DVD' for a second, then goes blank. I cannot eject or insert a DVD. No display on the TV. But the FM tuner and audio inputs still work.
This system cost me $400 2.5 years ago. I was never thrilled with it - sound is ok, but no Treble/Bass or EQ adjustment is available.
It also takes forever to switch between disks, maybe an acceptable sacrifice for such a sleek system.. but now it no longer functions for me.
Not that anyone is going to be buying these new anymore. Just steer clear!
