Not one cover star this issue but two! Do Marantz’s AV 10 15.4-channel processor and 16-channel AMP 10 power amplifier offer the premium AV experience their flagship status demands? We fire up this feature-rich separates system to find out… Also on the test bench is Philips’ 55in OLED+908, the TV maker’s first OLED screen with a high-brightness MLA panel. We also run the rule over B&W’s latest 600 Series speakers in a 5.1 package; a high-value 98in LED TV from TCL; Perlisten’s dual-driver R212s subwoofer; the Ambeo Mini soundbar from Sennheiser; Hisense’s PX2-PRO ultra-short-throw 4K projector; an affordable streaming amp from WiiM; and more. Whatever your budget, we’ve got you covered!
On the software side, we check out new disc and streaming releases including The Creator, The Marvels and Masters of the Air. We also throw the spotlight on 25 binge-worthy Blu-ray boxsets, and remember the Gothic brilliance of Francis Ford Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula as it’s reborn on 4K Blu-ray Steelbook.
Elsewhere, we step inside a stunning pro cinema install, check out the pro AV highlights of the ISE show, kick back in a stylish but tech-tastic demo room, and wonder if Freely is the next big thing in terrestrial TV…
Plus: all the usual opinions, news, disc reviews and competitions. Enjoy the show!
