Panasonic SC-BTT262 review
The Panasonic SC-BTT262 is a great 2.1-channel Blu-ray home-cinema kit. Given its compact size, its audio is surprisingly powerful, and the Blu-ray player is up to Panasonic's usual high standards. Read more

Panasonic SC-BT330 review
The SC-BT330 is a versatile, 5.1-channel home-cinema kit that delivers excellent Blu-ray picture quality. Its audio isn't as good as its images but it offers a number of useful extra features, such as iPod video playback and access to the Viera Cast online platform Read more

Samsung HW-C450 review
The HW-C450 soundbar is a good option for anyone who wants to replace their TV's shoddy built-in speakers, without investing in a full-blown surround-sound system. Its music performance is decent, but it really shines with movie soundtracks, delivering crisp dialogue and convincing explosions Read more

Pioneer HTP-SB300 review
If you're looking to give your telly an audio boost and you're short on space, the 3.1-channel HTP-SB300 soundbar could be the answer. Its audio isn't as immersive as that of a 5.1- or 7.1-channel system, but it packs an impressive sonic punch nonetheless, and it's a good-looking piece of kit too Read more

Panasonic SC-BTX70 review
The 2.1-channel Panasonic SC-BTX70 home-cinema system with built-in Blu-ray player is a curious-looking specimen, and its virtual 7.1-channel surround-sound processing isn't entirely convincing. But its picture quality is fantastic and its super-slim main component will suit those who like to mount their equipment on the wall Read more

Panasonic SC-PT870 review
It doesn't look like anyone at Panasonic HQ had much fun designing the SC-PT870 but it's a good 5.1-channel home-cinema system nevertheless. Music played via the USB socket isn't much cop, but the system performs admirably otherwise, delivering particularly impressive sound with movies Read more

LG HT33S review
The HT33S is a very likeable 2.1-channel home-cinema system. It's rather scratch- and fingerprint-prone, and music isn't its forte, but it handles DVDs with considerable skill, making film soundtracks a pleasure to listen to and offering impressive picture quality Read more

Denon DHT-FS5 review
The DHT-FS5 single-speaker surround-sound system is tastefully designed and unusually compact. Music-playing duties are not its forte, but sound quality when watching films or TV is good. Overall, this sound bar is a decent improvement on any TV's built-in speakers Read more

Marantz ES7001 SSX review
Marantz, one of America's oldest audio brands, has put forth the ES7001 SSX Front Surround Speaker System, a new single-speaker product. On both DVDs and CDs, the relatively wire- and clutter-free ES7001 produced sound that was incredibly natural and full-bodied Read more

Samsung HT-X710T review
The Samsung HT-X710T is a solid home theatre-in-a-box that focuses on DVD playback while offering excellent sound. It has a 2.1-channel system -- meaning two speakers, one subwoofer and a 'head unit' amplifier and disc player. If you don't mind the offbeat styling and the dearth of video inputs, this is a worthwhile choice Read more
