| Review summary | Support for lossless audio codecs, good design and strong performance mean we're very happy to recommend this little AV receiver and speaker package. At £300 it's not the cheapest system we've seen, but it performs better than most sound-bar type systems, which generally cost quite a bit more. We'd advise paying the extra £100 and getting the speakers to make it a 5.1 system Read full review |
The Slingbox Pro is awesome. If you're looking for a way to enjoy what's on your home TV regardless of your physical whereabouts, it simply cannot be beaten. Read full review |
While it's not the cheapest single speaker surround sound system on the market, it's right up there with the best, not only in terms of performance but also of design. Compact, sturdily built and attractive to look at, it delivers surprisingly effective multi-channel sound without the fuss and mess of a full 5.1 speaker setup Read full review |
The Sling Media Slingbox Solo is fantastic. If you're not bothered by the fact it only supports one source at a time, and lacks a TV tuner, the Solo is the best way to control and watch your TV on a laptop or mobile phone Read full review |

Our favourite ebook reader so far, despite lacking much of the functionality found in competing devices

Capable, and a good choice for students, but it's more expensive than rivals and the glossy screen is horrible
