Sony Bravia KDL-S32A12U review

Sony's KDL-S32A12U is an affordable, entry-level LCD TV that provides an ideal introduction for anyone looking to trade in their old CRT set for a slimmer model with a future-proof specification and a very clean, detailed picture Read more

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. However it does manage to wirelessly stream video and music content to your television via your home network, so you may forgive it Read more

InFocus ScreenPlay 7205 review

It may look boring, but the 7205 outclasses the current crop of sub-£2,000 models by a considerable margin. It should be the first choice for those with high-definition aspirations and an eye for quality home-cinema projection Read more

It's playback time: Freeview hard-drive recorders

If you've not yet made the upgrade to Freeview, you should think about spending that little bit more and buying an integrated recorder. These devices don't just record, they also enable you to pause live TV, rewind through what you've been watching and cut out the ad breaks... Read more

Panasonic DMREH50 review

This DVD recorder is bursting with supported formats -- only DVD+RW is missing -- and it offers an incredibly intuitive recording system as well as the world's best remote. But 80GB is a tad stingy for a hard drive recorder and there's no Freeview tuner or FireWire support Read more

NEC 42XR3 review

The 42XR3 is the smaller brother of one of our favourite plasmas, the 61XR3. The 42XR3 is still more expensive than most at this size, but the performance will win over anyone who has picture quality high on their list of priorities. There's no Freeview tuner or RGB Scart input though, so you'll have to wait for HD content to make the most of it Read more

Optoma MovieTime DV10 review

This 'home cinema in a box' solution -- a projector with built-in DVD player -- will suit movie fans who travel, as they can carry a complete cinema in one bag. On these terms, the MovieTime is a wholly successful experiment, and certainly helped by being excellent value for money Read more

Panasonic TUCTH100 review

Panasonic's first stab at a Freeview recorder doesn't pull any punches -- it features two tuners, a wonderful interface and good connectivity. But its 80GB hard drive isn't overwhelmingly large, and at £80 more than the competition, its value credentials are in doubt Read more

Toshiba 27WL56 review

Less than half the price of its predecessor, the 27WL56 adds an inch of screen and high-definition compatibility. Its good contrast levels will ensure pleasurable film viewing and Active Vision technology smooths out the blockiness of Freeview. Read more

Loewe Xelos A42 review

Loewe's latest 42-inch plasma offers a classy design, powerful sound and good connectivity for a reasonable price, but be warned -- you'll need a PhD in television repair to operate the menu system Read more
