Sony DVD Dream DAV-FC8 - Home theater system

Sleek looking and slick sounding, the Sony DAV-FC8 DVD Dream system is so named because it makes your DVDs look and sound, well, dreamy. The six-speaker system features a five-disc DVD/SACD/CD changer with progressive-scan output and front and rear floor-standing speakers. It offers decoding for the most common digital recording formats, including Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic II, and can play CD-R/RW, Super Audio CD (multi), and MP3 files, in addition to JPEG slide shows. The unit also includes an AM/FM tuner with 20 FM and 10 AM presets. The entire system sets up quickly and easily, and with its S-Master full digital amplifier, is processes sound signals with remarkable efficiency.

Among the system's audio features are bass enhancement, Digital Cinema Sound (a Sony exclusive that creates an authentic listening environment), and a total power output of 600 watts (100 watts x 6). The changer offers DVD/CD/SACD text and shuffle, program, and repeat play modes, and is powered by Sony's preprogrammed luminous Remote Commander remote control. The unit also includes a power save mode to conserve energy.

The Dream system is endowed with a full-featured speaker system to give your DVDs and music the depth they deserve. The 5.1-channel system includes four floor-standing 100-watt speakers (front/rear), a 100-watt center speaker, and a 100-watt subwoofer, all with color-coded connections to make setup a breeze. The system connects to a series of additional components through its digital audio input, two video signal inputs, four video signal outputs (two composite, one component, and one S-Video), digital input (for satellite TV), two analog A/V inputs and one A/V output, and 3.5 mm minipin headphone jack. The device carries a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
