Home Cinema Choice Magazine February 2018 Edição anterior

Our cover star this issue is Sony’s phenomenal KD-100ZD9, a monster 100in 4K HDR TV that outperforms the competition when it comes to searing impact and immersive visuals. The price? Well, if you have to ask… Also on our test bench is a duo of projectors that offer bigscreen thrills – Optoma’s laser-guided 4K DLP UHZ65, and JVC’s oh-so cinematic DLA-X5900. We also check out Monitor Audio’s Silver 500 5.1 speaker array, a nine-channel 3D audio AV receiver from Marantz, 55in TVs from Samsung and Brit brand Cello, Roku’s affordable Streaming Stick+, Sony’s step-up UBP-X1000ES 4K spinner and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered. On the software side, we gawp at the beauty of Blade Runner 2049 on Blu-ray and chat with director Denis Villeneuve; check out new releases including Shin Godzilla, Mother! and the remastered BD edition of Dario Argento classic Suspiria; and round up ten of the best Stephen King film adaptations in honour of box office smash It. Elsewhere, we catch up with the AV gossip from CES 2018, check out two fabulous rooms from HCC readers, admire an award-winning 4K/Atmos install, wonder whether home cinema sound starts at 5.1 and explain why the road to 8K video won’t be smooth. Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
