It's been a long time since we've seen a new 4K Blu-ray player. So, to have the Reavon UBR-X100 in for review, which is not only new but from an entirely new home cinema brand, is something of a double win. 'Excited' is putting it mildly.

The Reavon UBR-X100 is one of two launch products from the French home cinema company. Designed as a versatile disc player for DVDs, Blu-rays, 4K Blu-rays, 3D Blu-rays and CDs too, it also comes with the mod-cons of USB and network playback for any photos, videos or music files you might have on your NAS or thumb drive.

Perhaps what's most exciting is that the UBR-X100 sits at a price point that's all too underpopulated. More serious than a budget or mid-ranged machine and not quite as costly as the super-premium, we'd firmly class it at the 'affordable enthusiast' level. That means getting the most from the picture stored on your discs and damn near all of the sound too. The UBR-X100 is priced at 589,000 but if you want to add SACD and DSD support as well as analogue audio outputs, you'll need to go for the pricier Reavon UBR-X200 (1,89,000).
