The JVC TH-P7 is an incredibly affordable home cinema system that puts in a good performance with both pictures and surround sound. The design features the all-in-one convenience of a single unit complemented by tall, floor-standing speakers that give the system an illusion of authority compared to typical models at this price Read more

Pioneer DCS-360 review

Compared to other systems available for around £300, Pioneer's DCS-360 is an outstanding example. You get a more generous speaker package featuring floor-standing speakers and it's one of the few budget systems that can claim HDMI connectivity, which allows you to play near high-definition quality 720p or 1080i pictures Read more

Home cinema systems with cool features

Home cinema systems have come a long way from being the poor man's surround-sound setup. The four systems featured here have features that set them apart from separates, and they're all from quality manufacturers. Only one is an actual 5.1 system, but they all have genuinely interesting features that make them worth a look for the bedroom Read more
