Zvox 425

Zvox makes nothing but TV speakers, and the advantages of specialization are amply evident in the newest model, the 425. At 37 inches wide, it's the biggest ever Zvox--and perfectly suited for pairing with a large, flat-screen display or rear-projection TV. Like its smaller brothers, the ultimate Zvox doesn't come...

In the past, we haven't been terribly impressed with Sharp's high-tech home-theater systems (see the SD-AS10 or the SD-HX500, for example), but the company may finally be on to something good with its SD-SP10 virtual-surround home-theater system.

Zvox Mini surround-sound speaker system

We were knocked out by the original Zvox 315 "sound console" single-speaker surround system in 2004.
