- Intel X-25M solid-state drive (80GB)
- Intel's X-25M solid-state hard drive represents a major leap forward for the solid-state drive category. While we've heard about the benefits of solid-state hard drives for years--faster access and boot times, improved battery life--Intel's drive raises expectations for the category as a whole. You will most definitely have to...

- Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR6
- Sony has always reserved its best features and highest performance for its "XBR"-branded HDTVs, and this year there's an unprecedented three series of Sony sets bearing the moniker. The most-expensive is the XBR8 series, with LED backlighting, followed by the XBR7 series, with different styling and supposedly improved video processing....

- Samsung HT-X710T
- We recently looked at the HT-TZ512T from Samsung, a solid home theater-in-a-box that focuses on DVD playback and offers wireless rear surround sound. The TZ512 also offers a few additional audio inputs as well as compatibility with various digital file formats. The HT-X710T, reviewed here, keeps most of...

- Panasonic Viera TH-58PZ800U
- The big-screen HDTV arena is still owned by rear-projection models, but with every passing year flat-panel versions, especially plasmas, fall in price and become attractive targets for folks seeking massive home theater pictures. But prices haven't fallen far enough yet for most people, so for the foreseeable future big-screen plasmas...

- Sony Bravia Internet Video Link (DMX-NV1)
- The moment Sony's Bravia Internet Video Link (also known as the BIVL or DMX-NV1) was announced last year, we knew the product would face an uphill battle. What could Sony's proprietary video streamer offer that you can't already get from Apple TV, Xbox 360, Sony PS3, Vudu, or the Netflix...

- JVC KW-NX7000 navigation/DVD receiver
- The JVC KW-NX7000 isn't cleverly named like its sibling the El Kameleon, but it is just as cleverly designed. With its smart features, such as the proximity-based interface or the flash-memory-based navigation data, we found the KW-NX7000 extremely easy to use. However, it was the fun little touches, like the...

- Winegard RCDT09A
- Earlier in the spring we published a blog entry titled, "Don't buy a portable TV this year" highlighting the fact that the vast majority of portable TVs use analog tuners that won't pull in TV signals after the analog-to-digital TV transition February 17, 2009. At the time, our advice was...

- Pioneer Elite Kuro PRO-111FD
- Pioneer markets its Elite lineup of plasma TVs to appeal to the hard-core home theater enthusiast, and that means pricing these panels above and beyond just about anything else. The enthusiast who can afford one, however, can rest assured that the 50-inch PRO-111FD performs above and beyond anything else on...

- Vizio VO32L
- Vizio made its name by charging less than all the big brands, but savvy buyers may have noticed that Vizio doesn't really have the price advantage that it used to. While the 32-inch Vizio VO32L sells for a reasonable $650 as of press time, other entry-level competitors like the Panasonic...

- Polk Audio DSW Pro 400 - subwoofer
- When it comes to subwoofers, Polk Audio has at least four product lines with models in the sub-$600 price range (including some below just $200). After reviewing 8-inch models in the Monitor and PSW Series--the PSW10 and PSW111, respectively--we decided to check out the equivalent model in the DSW Pro...

- Ion Audio Block Rocker portable sound system for iPod
- Options are limited for those who want to make an obnoxious amount of noise outdoors--boom boxes take batteries, bullhorns are abrasive, and that Marshall guitar stack doesn't travel easily. Thankfully, the rechargeable battery-powered Ion Block Rocker ($299) has arrived to deliver bone-rattling sound to even the most quiet, far-flung corners...

- Sling Media Slingbox Pro-HD
- When Sling Media released a trio of second-generation models in the fall of 2006, the Slingbox Pro was at the top of the line. Unlike the entry-level Slingbox AV, the Pro had pass-through outputs, an analog tuner, multisource capability, and the capability to accept high-definition video sources. Unfortunately, it also...

- If you just aren't satisfied with a 50-inch plasma or 52-inch LCD, a front projector can provide a much larger image (like 100 inches), and increasingly projectors are sporting more home theater-friendly features. You can find a growing number offering full 1080p HD resolutions, for instance, and now LCD-based projectors...

White Papers and Webcasts
We need to get back to freethinking and innovation that is core to our roots. Companies like Intel were founded on thoughts like the famous quote from Robert Noyce - "Don't be encumbered by the past, go out and do something wonderful."
