Home Cinema Choice  |  October 2019
"Our cover star this month is KEF’s R Series – we put together a floorstanding 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos setup and see whether these gorgeous, tech-tastic speakers can take movie audio to new heights…
Also on the test bench is Philips’ 65OLED984, the brand’s latest flagship that combines 4K HDR OLED visuals with a Bowers & Wilkins-designed soundbar, plus Pioneer’s affordable VSX-934 AV receiver; Panasonic’s GZ1500 OLED TV and DP-UB450 Ultra HD player; a portable projector from Epson; 65in flatscreens from Samsung and Hisense; Klipsch’s BAR 48 soundbar system; the PlayStation Classic console, and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Avengers: Endgame, John Wick: Chapter 3, Rocketman and the new Final Cut of classic war flick Apocalypse Now. We also revisit the 22 movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to separate the heroes from villains.
Elsewhere, we take a TV for a tune-up with a professional calibrator, go behind the scenes of a high-end professional basement home cinema, chat with Toshiba about its new range of Dolby Vision TVs, and remember the days of pan-and-scan TV broadcasts…
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and more. Enjoy the show!"
