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

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

Sling Media Slingbox Pro-HD review
As with the original Slingbox Pro, most of this will be overkill for the majority of users who just want to stream their live TV or DVR to their PC or smart phone. But for home-cinema enthusiasts and hard-core gadget heads, the Slingbox Pro-HD may well be worth it. 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
