LG 42PX5D review

A 42-inch plasma-screen TV equipped with a high-resolution panel and digital connectivity capable of displaying high-definition content, the LG 42PX5D is less expensive than most of its rivals, although this leads to a few compromises with usability and picture quality Read more

Sagem PVR 7280T review

A mid-range recorder that's perfect for the modern home thanks to its modest hard-drive capacity and easy-to-use recording system, the 7280T is mundane to look at, and it won't record two channels at once, but if you're looking for a cut-price version of the Panasonic and Humax power recorders, it's still worth buying Read more

Panasonic TX26LXD52 review

The follow-up to the similarly-named TX26LXD50 has one important difference -- an HDMI input. This may not sound like enough for an update, but it means the TV can receive high-definition content when it becomes available -- and the picture's as good as ever Read more

32-inch hi-def LCDs with Freeview

LCDs are getting cheap enough to compete with CRTs on price, and the advent of high definition means they make a huge difference to your viewing. Most people will think that bigger is better, but a 32-inch model is the perfect size for most rooms. We've selected the best 32-inch LCDs on the market that are hi-def compatible and, as a bonus, they've all got integrated Freeview tuners... Read more

Humax PVR-9200T review

Humax's PVR-9200T is the most feature-packed and spacious recorder yet. With a 160GB hard drive, dual tuners and a Dolby Digital 5.1 audio output, this is the power user's machine of choice -- in fact, we can't see Freeview getting any better Read more

Panasonic DVD-LS90 review

Thanks to its highly adjustable neck, the DVD-LS90 is perfect for watching DVDs from any angle, and it sounds great too. But its large screen has a relatively low resolution, so the picture quality is very poor Read more

Toshiba SD-350E review

The SD-350 is a funky looking piece of kit, with attractive features such as DivX playback and it's an adequate picture performer -- a perfect candidate if you've just bought an LCD TV and can't wait for hi-def content, although oddly, its picture quality is better through component than HDMI Read more

ViewSonic N3260w review

It's fully hi-def, cheap as chips and has bags of connectivity -- but the menu system is atrocious, the VGA channel has a strange orange tint and the remote control is particularly nasty. We'd suggest a slightly more expensive option Read more

Relisys RLT32AB20 review

The RLT32AB20 is a puzzling product: it looks good, it offers a lovely picture and caters to home-cinema owners with separate speakers, but it's not HD Ready and doesn't have Freeview. So who's it for? 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
