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

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

LG HB354BS review
The HB354BS Blu-ray player with a 2.1-channel surround-sound system is an incredibly handy all-in-one system. iPod fans are particularly well placed to enjoy the system's impressive sonic performance, thanks to the built-in dock, and picture quality isn't bad either. It's ideal for people just starting to get Blu-ray fever 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 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

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-BD1252 review
The 5.1-channel HT-BD1252 Blu-ray home-cinema kit offers excellent value for money. Its tall speakers feel rather plasticky and their sound quality isn't the best we've ever heard, but the whole package looks slick and its video quality is excellent. The iPod dock is a welcome bonus too Read more
