Reviews

  • Yamaha YSP-600

    The Yamaha YSP-600 is a very good solution for people who want a simple system that sounds great, but look elsewhere for style or features.

  • Panasonic TH-42PZ700A

    The Panasonic Viera TH-42PZ700A is an excellent 1080p 42-inch plasma going for a bargain price, but is a little short from the benchmark product we expected.

  • Sony Handycam HDR-HC7

    More pixels, a more potent battery, and headphone and mic jacks are incremental improvements to last year's model, but the HDR-HC7 now looks like a AU$2,000-plus camcorder.

  • Yamaha YSP-900SW

    If you have limited space or patience for calibrating speakers, but still crave surround sound action, Yamaha's sound projector range could be the ticket.

  • InFocus IN72 projector

    Projector specialist InFocus has dropped the ScreenPlay tag from its home theatre line-up with the new -Play Big" range. The IN72 is the entry model in the series.

  • BenQ PE7700

    For those performance-minded videophiles on a shoe-string budget, look no further. This is "the one".

  • Sony Grand Wega 42-inch (KFE42A10)

    Sony's LCD rear projection Grand Wega TV presents good images but the price point comparative to similar technologies makes this a hard product to recommend.

  • JVC HD-Z70RX5 rear projection television

    JVC has entered the rear projection TV market with the 70-inch HD-Z70RX5, which features the company's proprietary D-ILA projection technology.
