TVs

Philips 42PFL9664

Utterly brilliant. £1500 might sound a tad pricey but this is one of the most exciting sets we've seen in years

Headphones

Philips SHB9000

They're simple enough to use, but we found the sound from these Philips cans to be woefully substandard

Music servers/clients

Philips NP2900

It's got a couple of flaws and missing features, but we can't help but like this new Streamium

Blu-ray players

Philips BDP7300

Philips's first Blu-ray player lacks the crispness of the very best, but it's got a great and makes a good budget buy

TVs

Philips 32PFL9604

There's no doubt that the '9604 is a hugely impressive set, but for £999 it can't quite pick up the full five-stars

TVs

Philips Cinema 21:9 56PFL9954H

This Cinema 21:9 set looks absolutely stunning, but it's hard for it to justify its hefty price tag

Remote controls

Philips Prestigo SRT9320

The Prestigo wins brownie points by having a single set-up that's intuitive and quick to use, with no fuss

MP3 players

Philips GoGear Spark SA2940

You'll get an impressive amount of bass weight from the Philips GoGear Spark SA2940, but the overall sound needs to be more refined and subtle

TVs

Philips 42PES001

It's far from cheap, but if you want a great-looking object that's also a great-looking screen, this Philips set is for you

Headphones

Philips SHS8000/00

Good fitting headphones for the gym. As for the sound, the bottom-end is nicely taut and punchy and they're dynamic and detailed
