Home Cinema Choice  |  Spring 2022
Our cover star this month is Samsung’s QE65QN95B, the brand’s second-generation Neo QLED TV. With new Shape Adaptive Light Control, this premium screen promises to get the best from its mini LED backlight and 792-zone local dimming to create a best-in-class picture performance…
Also on the test bench this issue is a floorstanding speaker system from Polk Audio’s Monitor XT range – is this the affordable Atmos setup you’ve been waiting for? We also run the rule over Hisense’s 100L9GTUK ‘Laser TV’ projector/screen combi; Denon’s DHT-S517 Dolby Atmos soundbar; the KF92 dual-driver subwoofer from KEF; Roku’s Streaming Stick 4K; wireless speakers from B&O, Bluesound, DALI and Harman Kardon; Zidoo’s do-it-all Neo S media player; Sennheiser headphones; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray, 4K and streaming releases including Spider-Man: No Way Home, The Matrix Resurrections and The Godfather Trilogy. We also round up a chorus line of 25 brilliant Hollywood musicals on Blu-ray, and look back at Paul Verhoeven’s classic flick RoboCop as the film arrives on UHD Blu-ray.
Elsewhere, we check out a high-end JBL Synthesis system that offers a slice of Hollywood at home; report on an HCC reader’s spare-room-to-cinema-room project; provide some quick tips to improve your TV’s picture quality; chat 3D audio with Tears for Fears; and reveal our pet peeves about going out to the multiplex…
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
