Sony RDR-HXD890 review

This does everything we hope for from a DVD/HDD recorder and in fine style – no more than we've come to expect from Sony

Toshiba RD98DT review

Panasonic DMR-EX768 review

By What Hi-Fi? published

Another solid recorder that delivers fine TV pictures and faithful recordings, although some rivals have the edge when it comes to DVD playback
