Panasonic SC-PT870

The Panasonic SC-PT870 is a good system, offering decent-quality surround sound and very good picture performance.

LG 42PQ60D

The LG 42PQ60D is a budget plasma that also performs like one. While design and picture quality are mostly good, we'd spend a little bit more on a Panasonic instead.

Reviews

  • Asus Eee Box B206

    For undemanding users who aren't into HD video, Asus' Eee Box B206 is worth a look; however, it's not powerful enough to take on other media-centre PCs.

  • Canon EOS 5D Mark II

    The long-awaited successor to the 5D has arrived in the guise of the 5D Mark II. With its competent HD video functionality and excellent image quality, this camera doesn't disappoint.

  • BenQ E2400HD

  • Dell S2409W

  • Sharp ANPR1500H

    The Sharp ANPR1500H will hold up your TV, but DVD playback and music replay are just not good enough for us to recommend it.

  • Apple iMac 24-inch (2009)

    Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.

  • Sanyo PLV-Z3000

    Sanyo's affordable 1080p front projector has its share of flaws, but still represents respectable value in its category.
