Reviews

  • Yamaha YSP-600

    The Yamaha YSP-600 is a very good solution for people who want a simple system that sounds great, but look elsewhere for style or features.

  • Sony PSP-3000

    With its impressive game library, lower price and expanded feature set, it's certainly a much better deal than the original PSP — and it's even better than the PSP 2000. While its media and online functions won't necessarily replace a dedicated AV device or laptop, it will be good for most portable gaming and multimedia needs.

  • ATI Radeon HD 3850

    ATI's Radeon HD 3850 delivers good performance at a great price — but is now outclassed by NVIDIA's 9600GT.

  • Sony STRDA5300ES

    With six HDMI inputs, an intuitive graphical user interface and excellent audio and video quality, the Sony STR-DA5300ES raises the bar on what to expect from a high-end AV receiver.

  • Onkyo TX-SR605

    The Onkyo TX-SR605 raises the bar for AV receivers by delivering an amazing number of next-generation audio and video features at an unbeatably low price

  • Mitsubishi HC1100

    The Mitsubishi HC1100 DLP projector delivers surprisingly sharp HD projected images at a very compelling price point.

  • InFocus IN74

    The IN74 looks impressive from the outside and it delivers quality images from the inside.

  • Lenovo 3000 J105

    The Lenovo 3000 J105 is best suited for basic office and home productivity tasks; but with limited upgrade options and a one-year warranty, better deals are out there.
