And at only $199 this little beast is set to be a real irritant up against Blu-ray devices that in some cases cost three times as much as this Toshiba box.

The Philips HTS6100 is a soundbar home theatre system that only takes up a small space and can deliver a unique home cinema feel to any room.

One of them is the Panasonic DMR-BW500 which is the first 500GB dual tuner Blu-ray recorder in the world outside of Japan.

The answer to this question lies more in what you want from a PVR and how much you are prepared to pay.

We pull out our favourite couch, sit down, and put this home theatre in a box to the test.

Pioneer’s HTP-LX70 certainly looks the part, but does it perform up to par with other home theatre kits in the market?
