Home Cinema Choice  |  October 2015
"In the latest Home Cinema Choice we’re well and truly embracing the Ultra HD revolution, picking out two 4K displays from Sony and Samsung that offer great performance at eye-catching prices, and auditioning BT’s new Ultra HD Sport channel and PVR. The future of home cinema has arrived!
Also on the test bench are floorstanding speaker packages from Quadral and Monitor Audio, Cambridge Audio’s new high-end CXR120 AV receiver and bargain Blu-ray players from Samsung, Sony, LG and Panasonic, while our soundbar/soundbase roundup puts seven flatscreen audio boosters to the test. And if you’re looking for the best of the best, this issue reveals the annual EISA Awards, covering everything from Ultra HD TVs, home theatre projectors and streaming services to BD spinners, speakers and AV receivers. So whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we admire the iconic stunts, stars and cars of cinema history in our A-Z of Movie Car Chases, and in our Playback section, Fast & Furious 7 leads the Blu-ray and DVD reviews, hotly pursued by Insurgent and the breathtaking new hi-def release of classic western My Darling Clementine.
Elsewhere, we report on Chinese TV marque Hisense and its plans to shake up the UK market, give away an Oppo headphones and portable DAC/amp bundle, take a peek at Kevin Pietersen’s Dolby Atmos cinema room and travel to Hollywood to talk tech with the brains behind 4K Blu-ray.
Plus all the usual opinions, news, advice and more. Enjoy the show!"
