Its elegant high-gloss, piano-black chassis is sure to stand out in any equipment rack. While dedicated Blu-ray players haven't reached rock-bottom prices yet, the BD-P1500 is Samsung's least expensive to date at $400, $150 less then the BD-P1400 that came out less than a year ago. The BD-P1500 is not the holy grail of Blu-ray players, but its feature set and lower price could be just what you've been waiting for. http://ultimateavmag.com/hddiscplayers/708sambd hddiscplayers Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:24:00 EDT Samsung BD-P1500 Blu-ray Player As with many projector manufacturers, Epson's product line is heavily oriented toward business applications. In that respect, the company is consistently at or near the top in worldwide sales. But Epson also occupies a significant and growing share of the home-theater market. http://ultimateavmag.com/videoprojectors/708epsonppc videoprojectors Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:08:00 EDT Epson PowerLite Pro Cinema 1080 UB LCD Projector http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/071808batmanbegins moviereviews Fri, 18 Jul 2008 19:34:00 EDT Batman Begins http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/071608batman moviereviews Wed, 16 Jul 2008 12:46:00 EDT Batman: The Movie In addition to offering 150W x 7 channels (into 8 ohms) and all the latest Dolby, THX, and DTS decoding, the Denon also boasts Dolby Headphone, HDCD, MP3, WMA, and Neural Surround Mode XMCF processing (which decodes 5.1 or 7.1 discrete channels from Neural-encoded 2-channel sources such as games and broadcasts). It has 2-zone preamp outputs and a media-server interface (both Ethernet and WiFi) that lets you listen to music stored on your computer, stream Internet radio, or browse Rhapsody. Oh yeah, the 5308 also offers HD Radio, XM satellite radio, and a special iPod port (optional cable required)&mdash;heck, Denon even offers a wireless iPod dock as an accessory. http://ultimateavmag.com/avreceivers/708denon5308 avreceivers Mon, 14 Jul 2008 11:43:00 EDT Denon AVR-5308CI A/V Receiver http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/07120810000bc moviereviews Sat, 12 Jul 2008 15:51:00 EDT 10,000 BC The Samsung PN50A550 is my favorite kind of product. This 50-inch, 1080p plasma TV sits one notch below the company's flagship model (the PN50A650), which means it has all the most important high-end features without a high-end price tag. http://ultimateavmag.com/flatpaneldisplays/708sampn50 flatpaneldisplays Mon, 07 Jul 2008 11:41:00 EDT Samsung PN50A550 Plasma TV http://ultimateavmag.com/news/070308uavontv news Thu, 03 Jul 2008 15:09:00 EDT <I>UAV</I> Editor on TV in LA Samsung has come a long way since the days when it was considered a second-tier bargain-basement brand. Thanks to steadily improving quality, the Korean megacorp is now one of the world's pre-eminent consumer-electronics manufacturers. I've reviewed several Samsung TVs over the years, and each one has been better than the one before. http://ultimateavmag.com/flatpaneldisplays/608samln52 flatpaneldisplays Mon, 30 Jun 2008 13:31:00 EDT Samsung LN52A750 LCD TV It has been two years since Blu-ray trickled onto the scene with the launch of the Samsung BD-P1000 and some less-than-stellar-looking movies. The combination of a faulty player setting and some poor-quality masters had many wondering if Blu-ray could challenge HD DVD for consumers' hard earned dollars. http://ultimateavmag.com/hddiscplayers/panasonic_dmp-bd50_blu-ray_player hddiscplayers Sat, 28 Jun 2008 11:49:00 EDT Panasonic DMP-BD50 Blu-ray Player http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/062308spiderwick moviereviews Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:08:00 EDT The Spiderwick Chronicles http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/062308foolsgold moviereviews Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:07:00 EDT Fool's Gold http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/062308bucketlist moviereviews Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:05:00 EDT The Bucket List http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/062308blood moviereviews Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:01:00 EDT There Will Be Blood http://ultimateavmag.com/moviereviews/062308blades moviereviews Mon, 23 Jun 2008 19:58:00 EDT Blades of Glory Westinghouse is one of the most venerable consumer-appliance brands in American history, so it's no wonder the company has gotten into the LCD TV game in a big way.
