Quick review

The good
Decent picture through HDMI, impressive audio
The bad
No scart, poor image quality with lower quality connections
Verdict
Despite being clearly aimed at the high-end consumer there are a few frustrating drawbacks here and not enough in terms of performance to really make an impact on the current market
