Denon DHT-500SD review

What's a hardcore Japanese manufacturer like Denon doing flogging its wares for only £400? Thankfully, the answer is that it's found a way to bring its high-end expertise down to a budget level 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

Denon S-101 review

Denon has a long tradition of high-end products and the S-101 isn't going to damage its stellar reputation. This 2.1 DVD system has speakers and features -- such as iPod integration -- that are good enough to merit the extra investment Read more

Optoma MovieTime DV10 review

This 'home cinema in a box' solution -- a projector with built-in DVD player -- will suit movie fans who travel, as they can carry a complete cinema in one bag. On these terms, the MovieTime is a wholly successful experiment, and certainly helped by being excellent value for money Read more

Toshiba TDP-S25 review

Many business people have access to a projector, but if you ever take it home for some after-hours movie thrills, you'll find that most models aren't up to the challenge. The TDP-S25 fits the bill, though, with a DLP chipset offering smooth-moving images. Get that company chequebook out. Read more

Philips HTS8000S review

Every part of the HTS8000S system has been placed on a strict diet by Philips -- the subwoofer can be hung on the wall, the DVD player is a unique vertical design and the speakers could easily be tucked away on a bookshelf. Judged as a limited 2.1 system, it performs well and provides excellent video quality Read more

InFocus ScreenPlay 777 review

For true home cinema fans, the arrival of 3-chip DLP projectors was perhaps even more significant than flatscreen TVs. This super-premium technology offers Odeon-quality projection in the home along with full high definition compatibility. It's the sort of thing gadget-heads and AV fanatics will dream about owning Read more

InFocus ScreenPlay 7205 review

It may look boring, but the 7205 outclasses the current crop of sub-£2,000 models by a considerable margin. It should be the first choice for those with high-definition aspirations and an eye for quality home-cinema projection Read more
