    Sony DAV-S888 - Excellent quality Audio and Video system, especially excelling in the sound department where the 5.1 system delivers rich punchy sound with a variety of sources. Not to mention that it has proved to survive technological advances where this unit connects to a plethora of devices and ...

    The Sony DAV-S888 is a brilliant system, bought mine some time ago now so it is not around anymore unless you get it second hand but you wont be disappointed, great channel separation, powerful, easy use...
    Great system.

    Sony DAV-S888 - Bought mine from John Lewis with standard 2 year warranty. Was ok for first year then kept skipping and freezing up like a PC. Had to keep switching off for 10 mins then it would play again, this happened even on brand new DVDs. Been back to John Lewis 3 times now. Finally identified ...

    I've had my Sony DAV-S888 for well over a year. Picked it up in a sale for £550. A saving of £250 on Sony list price. The wife wasn't too happy about spending this much money on a DVD player, but soon warmed when she realised how much better the picture quality was than our Samsung. ...

    I bought the SONY DAVS888 system for £700 from a Sony centre so paid top dollar, but we wanted to watch a movie that night with it and my wife was with me, so we couldn't be bothered to worry about delivery and just wanted it there and then. It came with 3 free DVDs a free flight and we also g ...

    Seems the problem with reading DVD's on the SONY DAVS888 is indeed carried over from the earlier model, perhaps in early ones of this particular model, perhaps all of them.
    Mine stopped reading for no apparent reason after 14months of light use (1dvd a week).
    Repairers advised the head had failed ...

    Originally, I owned a Sony davs800, and not to dishearten current owners, but this had to go back because it developed a fault with the cd player. I worked in an audio and tv department, and two shop floor models also developed the same faults.. not reading cd's, or taking ages to read the cd's and ...

    The main issue I had prior to buying this system was Dvd-r compatibility.-Don't worry, you will find no such problems. I have a Pioneer A04 DVD Writer and use Datasafe media with the G03 Ritek die...they work a treat. The disks are also printed with cd labels with no adverse affect.

    If you are c ...
