The HDT-1100 does the job, but a rather cheap look and feel detract from the overall package.

If it was a few hundred dollars cheaper in price (ok, maybe less than half?), the Wave Music System could have ground for a much higher rating. It sounds fantastic, but at this price, it simply isn’t justified.

It does everything a remote should do and more besides, but costs about the same as the GDP of a small country

A cheap, small media centre that has a few problems with under-the-hood grunt, but mostly operates quite well.

A very decent media centre, however it is outperformed in terms of value for money by some of the competition.

As a 2.1 system the S-101 performs well, but the virtual 5.1 capability is not as good as having more speakers.

A solid though unspectacular model that makes a good choice for those who are new to Home Theatre

A well featured DVD recorder that primarily falls down due to the lack of a digital tuner

A decent enough DVD recorder, but the lack of a digital tuner is a big letdown

While it is a little too costly, the FXG9K is a solid home theatre package, offering good quality audio and combining it with a five disc changer and a HDMI connection.

The LSDDVD does the job well enough, but suffers from a substandard DVD player.

It may have uninspiring looks but the LHD3 performs to a good standard.
