DVD Times reviews Sony RDR-HXD560 DVD recorder and concludes that “compared to the competition, the RDR-HXD560 is a really agreeable performer. For me to rave about it, though, I’d need things to be made just a little more responsive and user friendly. A pretty good way to sum it up is this: if you must record digital TV programmes to disc, then this will certainly do the job for you. If, on the other hand, you’re looking to buy your grandfather a modern replacement for his VCR, perhaps wait a while. There are some things - like recording a series - that don’t work quite as I expected on this unit. Also if you notice video flaws easily, then don’t expect it to replace your dedicated DVD player either.”
