Home Cinema Choice Magazine May-18 Edizione posteriore

"The first new screens of 2018 have arrived, and this issue we assess the 4K HDR talents of Sony’s XF9005 and Samsung’s Q9 QLED. Both are direct-lit, local-dimming LCD models that aim to outperform OLED when it comes to brightness punch. Which should be on your wish-list? Also on the test bench this issue is Denon’s AVC-X8500H, a 13-channel AV amplifier that lets you take your Dolby Atmos/DTS:X system to a new level.
We also run the rule over a 5.1 array using B&W’s premium 700 Series loudspeakers, Vivitek’s HK2288 4K DLP projector, the seven-channel NAD T 777 V3 AV receiver, a monster 75in UHD TV from Hitachi, and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered. On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Justice League and The Shape of Water, plus Samurai epic Blade of the Immortal. We also choose our picks from 2018’s Summer blockbusters, and build a collection of Best Picture Oscar-winners on Blu-ray. Elsewhere, we speak to Sony about its flatscreen ambitions and investigate motion-smoothing technology; give away a Q Acoustics 7000i 5.1 Slim speaker pack; check out a reader’s self-build movie den; and wonder why people insist on using their mobile phones in cinemas… Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
