Surround Sound Systems

Q Acoustics has come up with an ingenious solution to the problem of poor flatscreen TV sound, with the development of its slim Q-TV2 system

The 'BTX-70 does what it says on the tin, but we'd like it to do better to justify that price tag

We think this Blu-ray package from LG is rather accomplished and certainly stylish – especially for the money

In its SC-BT200, Panasonic has produced a system capable of delivering fantastic images and incredible sound

The Samsung HT-BD1220 Blu-ray system impressed us initially, but newer rivals have edged ahead of it

Sony has produced a home cinema speaker system that gives genuine surround sound to the speaker-phobic

We can pick holes in the performance but they're only small, so focus on the price and functionality of this home cinema system

We'd hope it would deliver more, but at this price (and given how the market has moved on) it's not rounded enough for us

A neat system but sonically it doesn’t knit together especially well

This well-built system offers style and substance, delivering fine pictures and detailed, solid sounds in a smart package
