"NAD Viso proves an all-round hit"
1 DVD Receiver / Tuner
What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision
Issue 7/2008
On test: NAD Viso Five
"NAD's audio products are more well-known for their bass-heavy performance than their design but the Viso seeks to buck this trend with smooth curves and silver highlights. Can its sound match its exterior?" Review details: Single Test   → Test results
"Alluring second-room solution"
1 DVD Receiver / Tuner
What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision
Issue 12/2007
On test: Onkyo DR-815
"This Onkyo fits the 'kid's bedroom entertainment' criteria rather neatly. It's a compact, tidily finished DVD player with two channels of amplification, AM/FM radio and SACD/DVD-A ability too. It also has a preout for a subwoofer (if you must) and preouts for centre and rear channels (if you absolutely must). Scart, S-Video and composite are your video output choices; attach a couple of speakers, and you're off." Review details: Single Test   → Test results
"One-box wonders offer magic movies and sweet stereo"
2 DVD Receivers / Tuners, and 1 Compact Surround Sound DVD Systems
What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision
Issue 12/2007
On test: Meridian G 95, Arcam Solo Movie 5.1, Naim Audio n-Vi
"There's never been so much choice at the high-end of all-in-one systems ... systems that are, in theory capable of replacing your home cinema and your hi-fi separates with one box. Naim paved the way with its n-Vi, first tested back in March 2006, but both the Arcam Solo Movie 5.1 and Meridian G95 have only been seen in our pages in the last few months. Which one will come out on top?" Review details: Three all-in-one home entertainment systems were reviewed and rated based on picture, sound and features. All products received a full 5 stars out of 5.   → Test results

DVD Receivers / Tuners

A DVD receiver brings together everything you need to enjoy perfect cinema sound in one, aesthetically pleasing, space saving unit. For those who want to save space in small rooms this is a great alternative to a separate DVD player, surround sound amplifier and Hi-Fi system. For even fewer components, some players also claim to offer true immersive, surround sound from only two speakers. Technologies like 'Dolby Virtual Speakers' not only make this claim plausible but have fooled die hard film fanatics and home cinema lovers in blind tests. The DVD players are often capable of handling other file formats like VideoCD, MP3, WMA and even creating slide shows from JPEG files, support for DivX is also being built into most newer models. DVD receivers offer a variety of connection options, and can also be used as an amplifier for external devices like computers and MP3 players.
