What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision Five Stars
October 2005
    "The '710 ticks all our current boxes for DVD recorders, and then some: as good a reason to jump on the DVD/HDD bandwagon as we have seen".
 
What HiFi Sound & Vision Awards 2005
Sony RDR-HXD710
    "The usual Sony build quality and style, right down to the simple-as-you-like menu screens", "the '710 is the very epitome of Sony's excellence".
 
The Sony RDR-HXD710 is a brilliantly equipped DVD and Hard Disk recorder. A Freeview tuner provides a wide selection of free-to-air programming for you to enjoy. This is coupled to a chunky 160GB hard disk (enough for up to 269 hours of recording) and a multi-format DVD player/recorder.
