Home Cinema Choice  |  Xmas 2019
"Our cover star this month is Philips’ 65OLED+934, a 4K HDR TV with the brand’s Ambilight illumination system and Bowers and Wilkins-designed Dolby Atmos soundbar. Is this a one-stop-shop for premium AV entertainment?
Also on the test bench is Optoma’s UHZ65UST, an ultra-show-throw projector with integrated soundbar and 4K media player, plus: a floorstanding 5.1 speaker system from Acoustic Energy’s 300 Series; Arendal Sound’s new 1961 Subwoofer 1S bass-maker; Epson’s EH-TW7100 4K LCD projector; the flagship Amazon Echo Studio smart speaker; JBL’s Bar 2.0 All-In-One soundbar; on-wall Oberon speakers from DALI; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, The Lion King [2019], Crawl, and the limited edition deluxe release of horror-comedy classic An American Werewolf in London. We also cast our eyes over 25 Ultra HD Blu-ray releases bringing classic films back to life – including Scarface, The Wizard of Oz and Casino.
Elsewhere, we rustle up a wishlist of AV accessories, boxsets and books to put in your Christmas stocking; get a tour of a reader’s dedicated movie den; chat to Hollywood sound editor Midge Costin about cinema audio; and wonder whether high-frame-rate movies are a good idea…
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and more. Enjoy the show!"
