Reviews

  • Harman Kardon AVR 355

    Tailored towards the casual listener rather than Harman Kardon's usual hi-fi customers, the AVR 355 is solid, with great features, but somehow lacking.

  • Samsung BD-P1500

    The Samsung BD-P1500 is a great player to finally take the HD plunge with. The price is right, it looks and sounds great with BD and will also make the most of your DVDs and CDs.

  • Sony DAV-F500

    If you own a Bravia and movies are your main criteria, the Sony DAV-F500 makes a lot of sense. Its video upscaling produces quality images, but music lovers will be disappointed.

  • Samsung HT-X715

    The Samsung HT-X715 is very easy to set up and it does make your movies look and sound good. We just didn't care for the music sound quality with flabby sounding bass.

  • Yamaha RX-V3800

    The Yamaha RX-V3800 boasts all the features expected of a top-of-the-line receiver, and while audio performance is exceptional video could use some work.

  • Sony STRDA5200ES

    With its groundbreaking graphical user interface, three HDMI inputs, and excellent sound, the Sony STR-DA5200ES is outstanding and innovative A/V receiver, with only a handful of frustrations -- including some video upconversion issues -- spoiling the party.

  • Panasonic DMR-EX85

    Panasonic's DMR-EX85 is crammed with more recording and playback features than you can imagine, including an enormous 250GB hard drive, universal disc compatibility and integrated video scaling.

  • Samsung BD-P1000

    Samsung's BD-P1000 is the first Blu-ray player to land in Australia. While it raises the bar for high-definition video with 1080p output, it also carries a lofty price tag.
