Home Cinema Choice Magazine Special 2015 Zurück Ausgabe

In the new issue of HCC we go in-depth in our exclusive review of Sony's VPL-VW520ES projector. Adding High Dynamic Range playback to its native 4K credentials, is this most advanced home cinema projector around?

Also on the test bench are Yamaha's YSP-5600 soundbar (the world's first to support DTS and Dolby's 3D sound formats), Amazon’s Fire TV 4K streamer, Panasonic’s 65in curved CR852 TV, a Freeview Play PVR from Humax, Monitor Audio’s new Bronze speaker system, a bargain-priced 55in Full HD TV from Philips and much more. So if you’re looking for new kit – whatever your budget – we’ve got you covered.

With Christmas approaching this issue also features our indispensable Gift Guide, rounding up system add-ons, movie memorabilia, books, boxsets and everything else an AV-Holic needs. On the software side, we pick ten festive flicks to run through your system, while Pixar’s Inside Out, Terminator Genisys and the new Exorcist: Anthology boxset kick off our Blu-ray and DVD reviews.

Elsewhere, we go behind-the-scenes at DTS HQ and report on its DTS:X sound format, check out an HCC reader’s stunning bespoke home cinema, give away an Epson Full HD/3D projector, listen in on the BBC’s new quadraphonic radio streams and sing the praises of 3D Blu-ray.

Plus all the usual opinions, news, advice and more. Enjoy the show!
