Our cover star this issue is Oppo’s new UDP-203 Blu-ray player, the brand’s much-anticipated 4K disc-spinner. A universal design supporting Ultra HD Blu-ray, SACD, DVD-Audio – and ready for Dolby Vision HDR – is this the deck to rule them all? Find out in our review…
Also on the test bench this month is Denon’s flagship AVR-X6300H, a Dolby Atmos/DTS:X receiver packing 11 channels of power for full 7.1.4 speaker setups. We also audition Sony’s VPL-VW550ES 4K projector, a more affordable bigscreen rival from Epson, 4K TVs from Samsung and Hisense, Cambridge Audio’s revamped TV5 soundbase, Humax’s H3 Espresso media streamer, a quartet of high-end soundbars, and more from brands including Philips, Amazon and Devolo.

Elsewhere, we report on the tech trends from this year’s CES expo; take a tour of a luxury home cinema using Meridian Audio speakers, visit an HCC reader’s stunning movie den, and reveal the ten things that make you a true home cinema hero…
Plus all the usual opinions, advice, news and more. Enjoy the show!
