Though Legend has done a good job in fitting two tuners into the LPVRC, some design faults hold it back from the mainstream.

The DViCO TViX PVR M-4130SH is a useful device for those who love downloading video and audio files from the Internet. Being able to play them on your TV is great and with the new PVR features, you can watch and record digital television as well.

A fantastic device for any tech-savvy AV enthusiast, the TViX 4030PA PVR is only let down by a few slight omissions.

Another solid offering from Topfield that does all the basic functions very well, although it lacks some advanced connectivity options.

A commendable PVR from MediaStar with a large hard drive is let down by only supporting SDTV

A great product, although ultimately its usefulness hinges on the use of a USB hard disk drive instead of an internal one. If this appeals to you, then the DP-H1 is well worth considering.

Despite the problems using the USB port and the slight inconvenience of the remote control and MP3 and JPEG playback, we found this unit very easy to use for watching and recording TV and very reliable. Its picture quality was excellent and it was also a very quiet operator, with only one small rear fan cooling the unit and only slight hard disk noise evident during boot-up and seek sequences. It's also well priced for a dual-tuner set top box. We highly recommend it.

The Sony DSTHD100 is innovative and easy to use, despite a few minor flaws.

One of the better high end HD receivers available, the Sony DST-HD500 delivers excellent value for those with the system to support it.

If you need a set to top box to produce good high definition images, the Toshiba HD-C26H will do the job nicely.
