Pioneer LX01BD

By Ian Morris

If you can afford it, the LX01BD Blu-ray player with surround-sound speaker system will prove well worth your cash. Disc load times are excruciatingly slow but it's a beautiful and cleverly designed package that offers fantastic picture and sound ...

Great design ; excellent picture and sound quality ; pleasant to use ; offers everything you need to start appreciating high-definition content ; great audio-codec support

Pricey ; very slow to load discs

After spending just a few minutes using the Pioneer LX01BD, we totally fell in love with it. There's plenty of power here for filling an average-sized room with sound, the picture quality is stunning and the audio system can understand almost every ...

Pioneer LX01BD

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
