Reviews

HDI Dune BD Prime 3.0

The HDI Dune BD Prime 3.0 is an excellent video streamer and CD player, but unfortunately it doesn't quite pass muster as a Blu-ray player.
Samsung BD-C6900

Samsung's got a range of new 3D TVs on offer, but there's not much point in getting one without its companion 3D Blu-ray player.
Toshiba BDX2000 Blu-ray Player

Toshiba's BDX2000 Blu-ray player is a little light on features, but offers great picture and audio quality at an affordable price.
Denon S-5BD

The Denon S-5BD is an integrated Blu-ray home theatre system and one of the first to support the new HDMI 1.4 standard.
Samsung NX10

The NX10 is Samsung's reply to the Micro Four Thirds system: a compact camera with interchangeable lenses that's not quite an SLR.
Sharp LC32D77X

The Sharp LC32D77X is quite an exceptional 32-inch television, it's best with 1080p content but also plays standard-definition content quite well.
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.
