Sony RDR-HXD560 review

Sony ticks all the right boxes

Easy to set up ; Good picture quality ; Accepts RGB

Small hard disk

This is a very capable combi that doesn't excel in any area but does a solid all-round job

Sony RDR-HXD560

The nitty gritty of this aggressively priced combi is quietly impressive, with a built-in Freeview tuner, a DV input at the front and the ability to record on dual-layered DVDs.

Expert review by : Ian Calcutt (avreview.co.uk)

Sony RDR-HXD560

This stylish machine also has a well thought out remote control and elegant on-screen menu. You can browse the programme guide while recording (unlike the Panasonic) and timer setting is reasonably simple, though a bit more involved if you want to...

Great picture quality; straightforward to use; ready for Freeview's enhanced Series Recording

No HDMI out; relatively small hard drive; lacks set-top box control; no anamorphic 16:9 on DVD+R/+RW
