The Joy of Home Cinema
If you've ever read the pages of a glossy celebrity magazine, you will have seen what can be achieved when very large sums of money are thrown at home cinemas. They are normally large, custom designed and dedicated rooms made to ensure the very best experience is achieved. While this might be out of reach to most of us, a home cinema system can be a very inexpensive affair. Whilst the overall effect may not be quite as dazzling, it will still bring you the immersive surround sound experience you need to really enjoy your movies.
Don't forget your cables and accessories!
Many home cinema systems will come complete with the speaker cables, and perhaps even an HDMI cable to get you started, but these might not be the best quality, so make sure you are happy with the quality and upgrade the cables where you think there is room for improvement.
You may also need other cables like an optical cable to connect your Sky or Nintendo Wii to your new home cinema system, or a Digital Coaxial.
DVD Home Cinema Product Reviews
We complete our look at Toshiba’s new range of upscaling DVD players, with the top of the range Toshiba SD-590.
Aesthetically, the Toshiba SD-590 is very similar to the SD-490, with it’s clean, and slim profile managing to look high quality, despite the relatively low price. The only difference you’ll notice visually is the USB socket on the front, which is also the main feature that the SD-590 boasts over the SD-490. The built in USB socket enables you to play MP3, DivX and Jpeg files directly from your USB stick and is an important next generation feature that makes the SD-590 a much more flexible device than just a simple DVD player. As with the 490, the display is clear and bright, if a little small, and general build quality is spot on. In additionto the USB socket, the 590 also has the usual connections with a single HDMI, component, digital co-axial and scart sockets.
The player also features the REGZA link so owners of Toshiba televisions will also be able to control multiple Toshiba devices from the same remote control.
Of course, the Toshiba also able to decode Dolby Digital and DTS sound so you can enjoy the full home cinema audio experience, and with its ability to be able to upscale standard DVDs to 1080p, you’ll get a high video experience too.
What to consider before you buy the Toshiba SD-590 DVD Player
This top of the range player is lacking very little, but the Toshiba XD-E600, although more expensive, offers higher quality upscaling.
Why you should buy the Toshiba SD-590 DVD Player
The online prices for the SD-590 are currently very similar to the SD-490, and with the additional feature of the USB socket, this makes it by far the best option of the two, and highly recommended. Rating: 4.5/5
