Yamaha YSP-2200 review

The Yamaha YSP-2200 is one of the slimmest soundbars yet. It's an ingenious all-in-one home-cinema system for those without the space for separates or multiple speakers. While the subwoofer is rather unrefined, the YSP-2200's sonic clarity and surround-sound steering is excellent. Read more

Philips HTS9800W review

The Philips HTS9800W offers HDMI connectivity with integrated video upscaling, advanced surround processing, multi-channel music compatibility and a 6.1-speaker system with wireless rear channels. It's a large system but it's unobtrusive and you won't find better, all-in-one performance for the price Read more

Pioneer LX01 review

Pioneer's LX01 takes the idea of an all-in-one system to another dimension. It has a load of features, including a Freeview tuner, DVD/HDD recorder and surround receiver, and could be considered a home media hub that will accommodate your every home entertainment need Read more

Philips HTS6515 review

Using Ambisound on the HTS6515 was Philips' way of creating an illusion of surround sound from just two speaker units. Well we've tested this piece and we can confirm that the depth of sound we got exceeded our expectations. In terms of picture quality, we'd go so far as to say it's some of the most impressive upscaling we've seen from an all-in-one unit like this Read more

Samsung HT-BD1250R review

The 5.1-channel HT-BD1250R is an excellent option for those seeking a low-cost home-cinema system with a built-in Blu-ray player. Its audio performance is admirable for the price, and its picture quality is even better, while a number of appealing extras, such as an iPod dock, only sweeten the deal Read more

Samsung HT-X30 review

A bargain price tag doesn't have to mean you compromise on features. The Samsung HT-X30 5.1 home cinema system proves this point well with its small but powerful speakers and good codec support. This system won't overwhelm your lounge with wires and it's a handsome beast too Read more

Sony HTP-BD3IS review

We chortled as we prised the HTP-BD3IS from its box, titillated by the ridiculously tiny speakers of this 5.1-channel, Blu-ray home-cinema system. But the smirks were soon wiped off our faces by its physics-defying audio and outstanding picture quality. The HTP-BD3IS succeeds in offering both style and substance Read more

Yamaha RX-V471 review

The Yamaha RX-V471 is a well-appointed, highly musical AV receiver that punches above its budget price tag. It's well built, sounds great, and even throws in USB playback. After a couple of years out of sync, Yamaha is back in the groove. Read more
