hcc_recommendedThis Philips OLED wants to put an end to the notion of mediocre TV audio. Mark Craven reports

Last year, Philips collaborated with Bowers & Wilkins on its OLED903 series, roping in the sound specialist to boost the audio appeal of its 4K display. But it turns out that was merely an aperitif; its new OLED984 is the main course. This time around, B&W has been involved from the very beginning of the project, resulting in a TV that's somewhat different to the rest of the flatscreen market. In a good way.

KEF R Series 5.1.2 speaker system review
Ed Selley  |  Oct 31, 2019  |  0 comments
hccbestbuybadgev3KEF’s revamped R Series is just the ticket for a serious AV system. Ed Selley gets stuck in

Many speaker brands are in the habit of releasing new model ranges as an entirely new entity – new name, new driver configurations, even new price points – in the pursuit of 'going with the market.'

Arendal 1723 S THX 5.1 speaker system review
Steve Withers  |  Oct 30, 2019  |  0 comments

Optoma HD29H DLP projector review
Steve May  |  Oct 15, 2019  |  0 comments
hcc_recommendedLow latency and HDR compatibility make gaming on this 1080p Optoma a bright idea, says Steve May

Smart and compact, with a glossy white finish, this new 1080p DLP projector from Optoma is designed for living room rather than dark theatre use.

It'll read HDR10 metadata and attempt to produce a correctly balanced dynamic image.
