Sony RDR-HX725 review

The HX725 offers the versatility of disc and hard drive recording, a full range of easy to use functions and superior style and build quality -- and recordings are impressively accurate to the original. It is lacking an integrated digital tuner though, and this exclusion causes usability and performance issues Read more

Panasonic DMR-EH80V review

Buffalo LinkTheater review

Buffalo's LinkTheater tries to be all things to all people, and in the rush for omnipotence forgets a few of the basics along the way -- such as Scart outputs, or a comprehensible control system.

JVC DR-MH50 review
