What is it: 2.1 'pseudo-surround' system with integrated DVD player
What we think: Decent compact system but struggles to turn two speakers into five

Tags: jvc, speakers, designs, surround
We like:
Universal compatibility; 1080p upscaling; ease of use; decent picture quality
We don't like:
Uninspired design and build quality; typically restricted surround performance from 2.1 speakers
CNET.co.uk judgement:
JVC's NX-F3 is a space-saving system with some impressive features for the money, but it won't fool you into thinking you're listening to more speakers

Toshiba XD-E500
Great if you can't be bothered to go down the Blu-ray route -- but not without its share of problems
Sony RDR-HXD995
Well designed, easy to use and fully featured, it's just a shame its Freeview receiver is such a slouch
