View Full Version : Noisy Sony SE710
I've just bought a Sony SE710 after reading the very good reviews but I'm disappointed. The unit generates a lot of motor noise whilst playing or recording and the picture quality is not as good as my 2 year old JVC. I plan to take it back but before I do has anybody else had any experience with this VCR, is mine faulty or is this normal?
I have seen another report on the poor quality exhibited by this machine on the digitalspy forum.The person here has had 2 of these vcrs - neither of which worked properly.
Best solution would be to return the vcr to the retailer(not of mercantable quality)and replace it with a different make/model.

Same here.
Noisy as hell so was the toshiba i swapped it for.
So back i went and swapped it again for a panasonic, which is superbly quiet.
You'd think all new vcr's would make no noise, how wrong was I.

I bought the Sony model recently but got a refund after a couple of days because it wasn't fully compatible with my existing machine. Ironically the sony vcr was nice and quiet.
