"Sennheiser isn’t a name usually associated with home cinema audio, but that’s set to change with the arrival of its Ambeo Soundbar. This premium single-box sonic solution delivers Dolby Atmos and DTS:X immersion, with additional proprietary processing on top. As we discover in our review, it sounds stunning…
Also on the test bench this month is Panasonic’s TX-50GX800 TV, a sub-£1,000 model that tempts with Dolby Vision and HDR10+ playback, plus Monitor Audio’s Gold Series speakers in a 5.1 system; Focal’s Astral 16 processor/amplifier; the mid-range AVR-X2600H receiver from Denon; B&W’s Formation Wedge wireless speaker; a 55in 4K HDR from TCL; Arendal Sound’s 1723 THX package; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered.
On the software side, we check out new Blu-ray and 4K releases including Shazam!, Dumbo, Alita: Battle Angel and the Collector’s Edition of classic ‘70s chiller Don’t Look Now, and go in-depth with a look at the career of Hollywood legend/3D evangelist James Cameron.
Elsewhere, we visit Dynaudio’s state-of-the-art new loudspeaker R&D facility in Denmark, take a tour of a luxurious, high-end professional cinema install, check out a reader’s Dolby Atmos movie den, and team up with Epson to give away a Full HD projector…
Plus all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and more. Enjoy the show!"
