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

The Onkyo HTX-22HDX home-cinema system is ideal for anyone who has a smaller house, but still wants to take advantage of 5.1 surround sound. We recommend you get the 5.1 package -- it's well worth the extra outlay. Read more

Sony BDV-E370 review

The Sony BDV-E370 is not a bad piece of kit if you can get it for closer to £300 than £500. 3D is a great bonus and we did like most of the features of this home cinema system. Sound wasn't perfect but, for smaller rooms, it's pretty reasonable. 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

Samsung HT-BD8200 review

One of the most compact Blu-ray player and speaker systems we've encountered, the HT-BD8200 is an excellent choice for those beginning to dip their toes into the home-cinema water. Although it could do with more inputs for other equipment, its sound and picture quality are great 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

Pioneer LX01BD review

If you can afford it, the LX01BD Blu-ray player with surround-sound speaker system will prove well worth your cash. Disc load times are excruciatingly slow but it's a beautiful and cleverly designed package that offers fantastic picture and sound quality, with great audio-codec support Read more
