Reviews

  • Denon AVR-1910

    The Denon AVR-1910 is a fully featured mid-range AV receiver with standout upconverted video quality, although it's held back by some subpar design issues and average sound quality.

  • Panasonic SC-BT207W

    This is a well-featured system that will produce great looking Blu-ray and DVD images. Sound quality's generally pretty good, just don’t push it too far.

  • The Beatles: Rock Band

    Stellar presentation and vocal harmonies help make The Beatles: Rock Band something special in the world of music games.

  • Samsung HT-BD1255

    Despite the rather plastic look and feel, this Samsung system offers plenty for the money and its audio and visual performance are both rather good for a HTIB system.

  • Razer Megalodon Headset

    While it may not be ideal for the casual PC gamer, the Megalodon is an incredible sounding and comfortable PC gaming headset that lets you fully customise your sound.

  • Sharp LC42D77X

    The Sharp LC42D77X is a great TV let down by poor sound. But if you have a sound system already then the set's belting image quality makes it worth considering.

  • Yamaha Air Xtreme YAS-71

    The Yamaha Air Surround Xtreme sets a new standard for soundbars, it features convincing pseudo-surround and can also carry a tune.

  • Bose 3-2-1 Series III

    If you're short on living space and don't need a Blu-ray player, the Bose 3-2-1 Series III home theatre system has plenty of "lifestyle" appeal.
