The HW-C450 soundbar is a good option for anyone who wants to replace their TV's shoddy built-in speakers, without investing in a full-blown surround-sound system.

Panasonic SC-PT870 review
It doesn't look like anyone at Panasonic HQ had much fun designing the SC-PT870 but it's a good 5.1-channel home-cinema system nevertheless. Music played via the USB socket isn't much cop, but the system performs admirably otherwise, delivering particularly impressive sound with movies Read more

Polk Audio RM95 review
Huge displays and teensy speakers are hot right now, and Polk Audio's RM95 five-piece home cinema package comes with four tiny satellites and a very compact centre speaker. Its unusual triangular design helps the RM95 project a spacious sound, but it can't rock out at higher volumes Read more
