Home Cinema Choice  |  December 2023
Our cover stars this issue are Sony’s XR-A95L and Panasonic’s MZ980 – two new OLED models promising cinematic entertainment. Read our in-depth reviews to find out whether these two TVs are worthy of your consideration.
Also on the test bench is Wharfedale’s DX-3 HCP, an ultra-compact and affordable 5.1 sub/sat speaker set. We run the rule over this bargain bundle, plus the flagship TX-RZ70 AV receiver from Onkyo; Epson’s EH-TW6250 4K projector; the Smart Ultra soundbar from Bose; Bowers & Wilkins’ premium-grade DB1D subwoofer; iFi Audio’s NEO iDSD 2 DAC; Marantz’s Stereo 70s receiver; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered!
On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray, 4K and streaming releases including Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, Meg 2: The Trench and Barbie. We also countdown to Christmas with 24 cracking festive-themed flicks, and look back at Ridley Scott’s historical epic Gladiator as it re-enters the 4K BD arena with a ‘Titans of Cult’ release.
Elsewhere, we step inside a stunning pro cinema install, head over to California to experience awesome audio with JBL, select some system add-ons and Blu-ray boxsets to add to your Christmas list, and wonder if modern movies are becoming too long…
Plus: all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
