Home Cinema Choice | February 2020
"Our cover star, LG’s 65in B9 TV, combines smart features, OLED imagery and a tempting price tag. But how does it compare to its higher spec stablemates? We investigate…
Also on the test bench is Denon’s AVR-X1600H, which aims to deliver home cinema and multiroom thrills on a budget. We also run the rule over Sony’s HT-X8500 Dolby Atmos soundbar; an affordable Full HD/3D projector from BenQ; Philips’ 55in 6814 Ambilight 4K TV; a 13in SVS ported subwoofer; B&W’s PX7 wireless headphones; Google’s cloud-based Stadia gaming platform; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we look back at the 2010s to pick our top 50 discs of the decade, from 3D and Atmos showcases to 4K restorations. We also check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Joker, Hustlers, and Rambo: Last Blood, plus the stunning 4K/Dolby Atmos makeover of Dario Argento’s Suspiria.
Elsewhere, we head to Korea to get eye/ears on with Samsung’s new Q950TS 8K flagship, go behind the scenes with a pair of professional theatre installs, wonder whether DVD is due a vinyl-style revival, and take a tour of a reader’s self-built cinema room.
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!"
