The new issue of Home Cinema Choice is out now and it's jam packed with the very latest in AV tech...

A new decade has started, one that promises some incredible advancements in home cinema tech – 3DTV is on the way, and OLED may appear as 
a bigscreen format soon. However, it’s something 
a touch more futuristic that’s getting us excited at HCC in the latest issue…

Never before seen outside of Japan, Sony’s 360-degree photonic viewer could well be the step beyond polarised 3D we’ve all been dreaming of since the holographic displays in Star Wars. It’s sci-fi stuff, but real – and we’ve got a world exclusive look.

But let’s not forget the noughties – they’ve been good to 
AV-holics – so we trawl through the last ten years worth of HCCs to take you through the highlights (and lowlights) of an amazing period for home entertainment. Meanwhile, in the here and now, we’ve only gone and exclusively reviewed the best Blu-ray player in the world – Denon’s £4.5K universal DVD-A1UD. And LG’s Seamless LED TV… And Focal’s tasty-looking Dome sub/sat package… And Sony’s £350 wonder AVR… And… You get the picture. Man, it’s great to be a home cinema enthusiast ALL the time.
