For the home theatre enthusiast on a very tight budget, these speakers from Laser will do the trick nicely.

An excellent home cinema system that performs well in every aspect

The best looking home theatre system currently on the market, but it is let down by having a mass of components and not have the substance to match its style.

We cannot in good faith recommend this system to anyone. Even if the sound quality was exquisite, a similar level can be achieved at a much lower price and in full surround.

Whilst the sound quality might be above average with no real component or HDMI connections and a price tag that rivals the economy of New Zealand we cannot in good faith recommend this unit. There are better sounding, more fully featured packages for one third of the price.

For those that don't need a receiver with the metaphorical "works", this may be right up your alley. The sound has to be heard to be believed.

Ideal for smaller environments, the Sharp HT-M700H delivers impressive (and inexpensive) 5.1 audio, however the lack of digital video output and a sparse feature-set make it unsuitable for DVD playback

A disappointingly ordinary home theatre system. Onkyo's 6.1 offering does things reasonably well, but fails to impress in any really important areas.

A great, all-encompassing package, the HTZ929 is a good choice for anyone who wants to bring their lounge room up to speed with the latest technology.

As far as wired systems go, this is one of the best on the market.

A great sounding system that won't break the budget. With the transmitter and freestanding speakers, it would be a worthwhile addition to many homes, but look elsewhere if you seek a fully functional, totally wireless system.

A wonderful home theatre experience. If the buyer can match it to their living room and has a spare few hours to set it up, it is one of the best choices available.
