Home Cinema Choice  |  Feb-21
LED, Micro LED, OLED – 2021 is gearing up to be a landmark year in TV technology. In our cover feature, we give you the lowdown on what Sony, Samsung, LG and Panasonic are bringing to home cinemas this Spring.
Kicking off our hardware reviews is Philips’ 48OLED935, which adds Ambilight and a Dolby Atmos soundbar to its promise of premium pictures. We also run the rule over Marantz’s NR1711 slimline AV receiver; Samsung’s The Premiere LSP9T ultra-short-throw projector and HW-Q950T soundbar system; a value-for-money speaker setup from SVS; Sony’s 4K HDR-capable VPL-VW590ES projector; TVs from LG and Toshiba; Amazon’s fourth-gen Echo smart speaker; more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we celebrate 4K Blu-ray’s fifth anniversary with a roundup of the essential UHD platters everyone should own. We also check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Bill & Ted Face the Music, Possessor, and Blade, plus Studiocanal’s lavish remaster of Roger Corman’s The Masque of the Red Death.
Elsewhere, we go behind the scenes with a pair of professional theatre installs; take a tour of a reader’s self-built cinema room; report on KEF’s new Uni-Core subwoofer technology; and reveal why Netflix rules the roost when it comes to foreign language TV.
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
