Humax Foxsat-HD (freesat)
The Humax Foxsat-HD is a top class high-definition receiver and gets the freesat service off to a great start. All that's needed now is more freesat HD channels to truly make the most of its high definition capabilities
LG BD370
The LG BD370 is a terrific Blu-ray player. Support for both YouTube and media files like DivX and MPEG-4 plays a huge part in our love for this machine. MKV playback is really the icing on the cake, taking the BD370 from being a good Blu-ray player to a very good all-rounder
Samsung HT-BD8200
The Samsung HT-BD8200 is a truly solid performer, and well worth considering if it fits in with your current equipment stylistically. But it's not the best-specified machine in terms of connectivity -- if you're looking for an AV receiver, you'd be much better off with a separate decoder and speaker system. This machine's picture and sound quality are both top-notch, though, and it's an excellent companion for a hi-def screen, especially a wall-mounted Samsung display
Panasonic DMR-BS750
We've given this excellent machine a score of 9, but it comes with the obvious 'but', which is simply that it's far too expensive. £900 is more than enough to buy a £300 freesat PVR and a £200 Blu-ray player and still have pots of cash left over. Sure, the Blu-ray recording is unique, but is it really that valuable to you?
LG HB954PB
The LG HB954PB's styling may not be to everyone's taste, but this competitively priced system provides a convenient method of delivering great video and audio performance
Humax Foxsat-HDR
As the first freesat PVR on the market, the Humax Foxsat-HDR would have sold even if it was utter rubbish. Luckily, it's brilliant and anyone who buys one will have a sturdy, easy-to-use machine that looks fantastic under their TV and boasts impressive picture quality
Sony BDP-S350
Finally, a Blu-ray player from Sony for everyone to get excited about. This player is relatively quick to load discs, picture performance is superb, and its wonderful menu system and speed at dealing with interactive features make it well worth its bargain price. It's just a shame it took Sony so long to get this player on the market
Humax PVR-9300T
The 9300T is a worthy replacement for the 9200T, offering masses of storage space and superb recording quality. Unfortunately, the operating noise is ludicrous
Sony RDR-HXD995
Overall a good machine, but it has some problems, and we'd suggest you check the strength of the Freeview signal in your area before you invest. Otherwise its performance and value for money make it worthy of your time
Panasonic DMP-BD60
The Panasonic DMP-BD60 is a capable and likeable Blu-ray player. We love the simple styling, even if it is unexciting, and we think this is likely to be a really popular machine. DivX support and an SD card reader add to the features, but this player is first and foremost about getting Blu-ray movies onto your TV with minimum fuss and maximum quality. Overall, it's a great performer and, though on the costly side, it's worth the money
