    As other readers have posted - great system until the DVD-player part of it packed up after a year or so. 'STANDBY' constantly flashes on the display and even had to open the unit up once to get a jammed disc out. Now use in only as a sound system with a DVD player plugged in to the 'aux in'. Shame ...

    I've had my Sony DAV-SC5 for over 4 years and has never let me down. I have moved house on 4 occasions in that time, so it's been packed and unpacked several times. The sound is awesome, it has loads of inputs so I have the TV, games console and iTunes Airport Express plugged into it. Unlike others ...

    I bought the system... was happy until it packed up just after 2 years. It was not heavily used I expected better quality. Now I know why they there is only a 1 year warranty. Looking back, I don't think it's worth the extra premium. I might as well have purchased a JVC or Panasonic. To make a point ...

    Great Home entertainment system, with great surround sound components, good visuals, easy to use and set up, and all has been going swimmingly for about 2yrs until the DVD player packed up, but irritatingly not all the time. So sometimes the DVD player works OK, and then at other times the DVD func ...

    The Sony DAV-SC5 generally is a great home cinema system all round, with nice looks, and all was going great for the first 18 months, but after owning it happily for 18 months the DVD component failed, and the standby also would not shut down, and just to make my day, it only had a 12 month warranty ...

    Too bad you can't buy the Sony DAV-SC5 DVD home cinema system new anymore. The Sub seems like it's a baby with just 100 watts. Just go into Settings and put the setting to +6Db and it's a whole new story. My neighbours did come around once and told me to turn it down :D.

    The Sony DAV-SC5 is a fantastic system which is reasonably priced. I bought mine in December 2003 and have been really impressed with the sound quality. My X-Box games really come alive when connected and action movies are awesome. The Bourne Identity and Swordfish are particularly good with the ...

    Only after 2 months of purchase my Sony DAV-SC5 system seemed to be ageing. The DVD would get stuck, the function buttons would not work and there was loss of output in one of the front speakers. I am truly disappointed with SONY for having come up with such an unreliable product.
