Reviews

  • Altec Lansing inMotion Classic

    The Altec Lansing inMotion Classic offers a stylish way to play your iPod or iPhone around your home. It sounds remarkable for its size, but it lacks the low-end oomph of a larger system.

  • Samsung HT-BD8200

    The Samsung HT-BD8200 not only offers a likeable and easy to set-up home cinema system, it also offers audio and video of a higher standard than the price lets on.

  • Kogan Blu-ray Player BD 2.0

    The renewed Kogan Blu-ray player is a bargain, with many of the niceties of much more expensive players but you can't expect video precision for the price.

  • TDK iVibe

    If you can find a place for the iVibe in your home then you'll be happy with the sound it produces, especially if you overlook its various shortcomings.

  • Sony Dream Machine (ICF-CL75iP)

    We have a few nitpicks and grumblings, but overall the Dream Machine is a happy marriage between the alarm clock, iPod dock and digital photo frame.

  • Sony BDVIT1000

    The Sony BDVIT1000 is a stylish 5.1 home theatre system featuring Blu-ray playback and wireless rear speakers.

  • Sony BDV-E800W

    The Sony BDV-E800W is a 5.1 channel home theatre system that features an onboard Blu-ray player and support for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD.
