...After a wide-screen t.v me and my partner were egar to complete our home entertainment by acquiring a 'DVD home theater system'.

Advantages: Widescreen, 3D Nicam stereo, well designed, price
Disadvantages: Sound quality could be better

The Sanyo came at the right price (though a stand was an extra £40) and, to my mind at least, looks very smart. It is not a flat screen, but it looks like one and only close up examination reveals that it is not. The way the television fits together with the stand is very pleasing visually and not difficult physically. I had to assemble... Read review
