Zvox Z-Base 525

Photo gallery:Zvox Z-Base 525Surround sound and its accouterments tend to dominate a living room, requiring an AV receiver, several speakers, stands, and wires to make the whole thing work. That's why many people choose to skip surround sound, opting instead for the tinny acoustics of their TV speakers. Single-speaker solutions...

Samsung HT-BD1250

Photo gallery:Samsung HT-BD1250DVD home-theater-in-box systems seem to offer a lot of value from the spec sheet, but are often seriously disappointing in use, with lackluster audio and video being the norm. So far our experience with Blu-ray HTIBs has been the exact opposite; almost all of the systems we've tested...

Onkyo HT-S3200 (black)

To date, Onkyo has been the go-to manufacturer for component-based home-theater-in-a-box systems.

EU to extend copyright to 95 years

EU to extend copyright to 95 yearsCurious decisionI too cannot see the rationale behind this decision. One suspects Sir Cliff will have another hit soon: 'most downloaded torrent of 2009'.On another issue: be interested to hear your comments on Psystar's v Apple and the judge's reference to 'abuse of copyright...

EU to extend copyright to 95 years

With an extension to 95 years, copyright makes it safe for those 50s rockers to finally retire. Or their record company executives. In any case, the society that enriched the musicians by buying their records gets no benefit whatsoever. Except royalty babies. by Richard Koman

Vizio VO32LF

Despite all the times we've written about how 1080p just isn't that noticeable, especially at small screen sizes, it's becoming a moot point. Just about every LCD is 1080p these days, and with models like the Vizio VO32LF, the price gap between 720p and 1080p is negligible. This model replaces...

Sony BDP-S550

Sony has made standalone Blu-ray players since the format's inception, but they've always been overshadowed by the company's game console, the PlayStation 3. In many ways, the Sony BDP-S550 is the company's first standalone that might be a smarter buy than the PS3 for nongamers. The BDP-S550 is Profile 2.0...
