- Insignia NS-2BRDVD
- Photo gallery:Insignia NS-2BRDVDWhen you opt for a budget product rather than a name brand, it usually means you're looking for "good enough" instead of perfect. The Insignia NS-2BRDVD, from one of Best Buy's in-house suppliers, is a classic example of the former. The Blu-ray player lacks step-up features (such...

- Denon AVR-789
- Editors' note: The Denon AVR-789 is nearly identical to the AVR-1909, therefore the reviews are very similar. The AVR-789 lacks the smaller remote for second zone usage and a wired RF input, but is otherwise functionally identical. Setting up an audiovisual receiver isn't for the faint of heart. Stripping...

- Denon AVR-1909
- Setting up an AV receiver isn't for the faint of heart. Stripping speaker wire, multitudes of cables, inputs and outputs, confusing configuration--even the most grizzled AV nerd is likely to make at least one mistake during a setup. And even after you get it set up, it can be a...

- Toshiba 46XV545U
- Toshiba is trying to corner the market on "turns your standard-def into high-def!" hype. One recent attempt was the XD-E500 DVD player, which trumpeted funky and ultimately disappointing "XDE" video processing in attempt to lure buyers. Now there's the more elaborate "SRT Super Upconversion" moniker, which promises that "all your...

- Hitachi DZ-BD10HA
- Few things work better than convenience for getting consumers to adopt a new technology, and in the case of camcorders, convenience means supporting your preferred format. By that definition, Hitachi's DZ-BD10HA Blu-ray camcorder is certainly convenient. It records full HD video (1,920x1,080) to 3-inch BD-R/RE discs, to a built-in 30GB...

- Toshiba Regza 42RV530U
- During the last year flat-panel HDTV prices seemed to hit a plateau, where the standard bricklike downward trend leveled off somewhat. Now, however, prices are on the decline again, opening up bigger screen sizes to lower price ranges. For example, Toshiba's lowest-priced 1080p 42-inch LCD, the 42RV530U, can be purchased...

- Samsung's flagship one-chip DLP-based home theater projector, the SP-A800B, takes accuracy of signal reproduction to a new level. My previous reference projector, the Samsung SP-H710AE, was designed by Joe Kane, and that well-known video guru and author of Digital Video Essentials also designed the SP-A800B. While the 710E is spectacularly...
