In the blink of an eye in April 2016, what is special about home theater?
Xiaoyao here to reveal to everyone this information:
The story behind this information, please allow the small fire to read for the majority of value.
Do you still remember the concept of 4K TV that began to be hyped a few years ago? The major TV manufacturers rushed to launch 4K resolution TV sets in search of sales growth. I believe that many valued friends have a 4K TV set in their homes. However, it is an indisputable fact that most people do not use real 4K resolution. why? 4K source is hard to find!
When 4K UHD Blu-ray discs have not yet been released, China is not like Netflix will often put some original TV dramas shot in 4K resolution, such as "House of Cards".
House of Cards
There aren’t many fans willing to purchase SONY’s FMP-X10, the only player that can provide true, genuine 4K resolution video at the time. Because it is a paid download, each film is 25 yuan (if not remember correctly), and can only watch a cumulative 72 hours, can not be copied.
It's funny and sad that most 4K TVs will be used to play a few minutes of 4K demos repeatedly: beauty and roast duck, whether or not everyone has an impression.
Beautiful roast duck
However, the sale of the 4K UHD Blu-ray Disc will certainly bring about tremendous changes to the 4K ecosystem and also bring huge business opportunities. The ultimate benefit is for the majority of consumers. Watching a 4K movie is as easy as watching a DVD or Blu-ray. The availability of film sources is a necessary condition for the popularization of new technologies.
Well, let's let Xiaoge start based on 4K UHD Blu-ray Disc and talk about creating a high-definition/high-quality home theater.
First of all, it is affirmed that this is definitely not an entry-level, affordable cinema. For those who are interested in affordable cinema, please refer to Xiaochu’s chu nv:
But it is not unattainable. From the original experience of Siu Kwok in the past, the majority of value-friends are more interested in building a cost-effective home theater. But Xiaoyao also believes that value-friends have the same interest in high-end things. Otherwise, how do you dazzle your friends?
By the way, before the start, we must also tell you that you have purchased a 4K TV and you have a bad news. The product you purchased is likely to be a half-wound or completely disabled product that cannot meet the requirements of high-definition theaters. And, the most fundamental thing is: Not big enough! It is recommended that 4K home theaters start from 120-inch screens.
Since HDR is a revolution in display technology, then starting from the display device to build the best home theater.
display screen:Projector
SONY VPL-VW528 preferred
Home Cinema Projector Preferred SONY VPL-VW528
Official website connection
As the first home projector supporting 4K + HDR function, it was warmly welcomed by the majority of cinema users. Sony is one of the pioneers of 4K image technology. SXRD panel technology has so far been the only practical 4K in the market, making a major contribution to the popularity of 4K in home theater.
Although DLP technology also released the first 0.67-inch 4K chip in January this year, it will take time to be applied to actual products. The price and effect are still unknown.
4K DLP
So the most practical choice at the moment is still SONY's VPL-VW528 projector.
Since Sony has classified it as a Pro (professional) product line, it is difficult for consumers to buy it from sources such as JD. However, we have a universal Taobao...
At present, Jingdong's VPL-VW500ES is the previous generation of 528 and has no HDR function, so it is in the clearance phase. However, Xiaochao can be responsible for saying that the price is too high and a friend in need can go to Taobao to try his luck.
Precautions:
1. The size of this machine is still large, please leave enough space for installation
2. The room is best to have good shading (can effectively improve the contrast). It is best to have a dark matte finish on the wall to prevent reflections.
3. The supporting projection screen must pass the 4K certification, especially the sound-permeable screen, absolutely cannot be greedy and cheap, otherwise the picture effect is appalling. With regard to the detailed selection of the projection screen, an original post can be opened separately. Today is not a list.
TV set
Although it is advisable to watch 4K screens with a screen size of 120 inches or more, there are few 100-inch TVs available on the market. It should be astronomical, let alone a big one.
But considering that the new generation of 4K TVs has HDR capabilities, Xiaogan still has to make recommendations. The reason is: The optimization of HDR for television screens is far greater than the evolution from 1080P to 4K . I would rather have a HDR 1080P TV than a 4K TV.
Do you still remember the former king of television picture quality - plasma? Although the plasma has long since disappeared with Panasonic's withdrawal, the performance of plasma TVs in the black, contrast, color, and smearing of the era is much better than that of LCD TVs. I believe this is undoubtedly true.
With the development of technology, OLEDs have surpassed plasma TVs in image quality. After the addition of HDR and other technologies, the contrast is no longer the pain of non-plasma TV forever. Please remember a small burning sentence: rather HDR grass, not 4K seedlings, the perception of the human eye is so practical, so direct.
The following questions, to see how several major TV manufacturers' attitude towards HDR?
SONY:
As a pioneer of 4K, SONY naturally takes the lead in 4K TV. In the domestic market, it is the first to launch two series of HDR televisions. They are the X8500D series and the X9300D series.
Did SONY HDR TV see exciting HDR words? Dafa is Dafa and it puts the biggest selling point on the top spot. Sure enough, the idea is refreshing.
This 85-inch HDR TV looks very enjoyable at a price of 60,000 yuan
Samsung (Samsung):
Compared to SONY, another S, South Korea's Samsung does not know why this feature of HDR hides, you do not see any HDR words on the product page. However, according to the experience of Jumbo's strolling in the US and Samsung's official website, the model of the domestic official online "SUHD" is theoretically supported by HDR, including two series of four models.
Samnsung SUHD So how do you judge whether this sagging Samsung TV supports HDR? Mystery is in Samsung's "Utron Peak Control Light" function. In the product introduction, this function is described as follows:
Samsung's Ultra Peak Controls on the U.S. official website, this generation of SUHD TV's description of HDR is this:
Samsung Ultra Peak Control Light HDR
On the Amazon in the United States, the comparison table for this generation of SUHD televisions is as follows:
Samsung Amazon
Therefore, we can basically determine that all Samsung SUHD TVs with the "Utron Peak Control Light" function support the HDR function.
However, "the final interpretation of the product" is still in Samsung here. Before everybody buys, it is best to beat Samsung's customer service phone to confirm whether it supports HDR function in the end, and get the official reply to be the most reliable.
Komaki here makes a bold speculation that Samsung's first-generation SUHD TVs are not very well-supported for this feature of HDR, so Samsung did not do big promotion, even in the domestic official website did not mention anything. In any case, the new generation of Samsung SUHD TVs that have been released in the United States has already listed this function separately. Moreover, with the "ULTRAHD PREMIUM" certification, regarding this certification, Siu-Han was placed at the end of the article.
Samsung's SUHD series is the largest model of this 78-inch, priced at more than 70,000
LG
Another Korean maker, LG, took the lead in launching a curved OLED TV, so Xiaogan was really impressed with her. Oh, yes, LG also has 4K OLED models:
Unfortunately, HDR is not supported, but when it comes to viewing ordinary movies, it is definitely much better than ordinary LCD TVs.
Going to the question, let's take a look at LG's HDR TV model. It's very easy to distinguish: Any name with xxUHxxxx "UH" supports HDR.
The product introduction also highlights this selling point:
Lg hdr
The largest screen size sold is 86 inches. Unfortunately, there is no online sales, store price geometry? Estimated to be 100,000 or so.
Product links
The current 4K UHD Blu-ray player models are few, and only Samsung and Panasonic have released or confirmed models.
Samsung Model: UBD-K8500
Samsung, which is already sold in Amazon America, is characterized by ... is cheap and can be bought immediately. Haha, Samsung's move is very beautiful. Before Sony and other Japanese manufacturers launched such a machine to seize the market, or show off the technical strength, or advertise the brand. In short, it is also the only 4K UHD Blu-ray player on the market.
Panasonic Model: DMP-UB900

Highlights: What hifi full five-star rating. Somehow, this machine has already been evaluated on the UK HiFi website What Hifi. Interested can go and see the evaluation link
Remember what the editor said: We must remember this moment, for this is the future of home cinema. We should keep this moment in mind as this is the future of home theater.
It can be seen that well-informed editors were also stunned by the effects of HDR.
It is not yet officially available for sale and can be ordered at Amazon in the United Kingdom.
Here, Xiaozhuo swears that the Blu-ray disc currently playing 4K UHD is only a legitimate choice, and it is played on a 4K Blu-ray player. Domestic 4K players can't be oh.
For the basic part of the selection of cinema amps, please refer to this article of Kazuma.
In today's article, this article once again validates the principle of " buying new and not buying old " in the article.
Since the article is mainly about how the best quality movie theater is made. Regarding the part of sound, Xiaoge will briefly talk about what amplifiers are suitable for such home theaters. What are the functions that need to be emphasized?
1. HDR
Since all the above mentioned content revolves around the HDR function, amplifiers must naturally support this function. Everyone must see this when choosing, as shown below
Support HDR
In general, only the models that were released last year are equipped with this feature.
2. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
Since our goal is to set up the best home theater, the natural sound quality can not be bad. Therefore, our choice of amplifier must also support the immersive 3D sound effects of these two.
Dolby DTS
In general, this year's new models will support both. Some of the models last year can support the newer DTS:X format through firmware updates.
3. Supported channels
The more speakers the better! This is the goal pursued by the new sound format in recent years. Indeed, more horns can bring a better sense of envelopment and allow you to fully immerse yourself in 3D sound effects.
Multiple speakers
For the moment, we are not pursuing the limit of placing twenty or thirty horns at home. 7.1.4 This typical high-end configuration is something I must wait for.
Understand these three points, let's take a look at how the amplifier chooses:
First of all, all three points are in line. Only Marantz, Denon, Yamaha, Pioneer's flagship 2015/2016 series. (The flagship of Onkyo is a model of 2 years ago, so it does not support the latest technology and it is regrettable). The general price starts from 10,000 yuan.
For example, this Dragon 7200WA is a very good choice.
Secondly, to go to the third point, the choice should be wide-ranging , and the newest mid-range series for this year's major Japanese manufacturers are all available for selection. The general price starts from 4,000 yuan.
For example, Onkyo's 545.
If you need a higher-end AV amplifier, please refer to another less popular article on the fever:
speakerWith regard to speakers, the purpose of Siu-kwang is to make a detailed breakdown. Today, this article will only talk about some of the considerations for selection, and the brands that are more respected by Xiaoyao.
1. Selection of 7 surround channels.
If, I mean, if the value-friend is just to build a home theater, not a music enthusiast, it is not advisable to choose a large floor box as the main speaker.
There are three reasons:
1. The home theater surrounds all the surround sounds in a unified manner. It is best to have the same three channels in the front. The sound of the floor box is difficult to unite with other channels, and you will not use a floor box as a center.
In general, the following left/center/right front speaker layout is the THX official recommended method to get the best results. Recommended for use with acoustically transparent screens.
THX top three
If you use a large-screen TV, you can also use an arrangement similar to the following:
The first three TV
2. Floor-standing speakers will occupy valuable floor space. Now this house price, willing to give valuable area to the speakers are local tyrants.
3. Floor-standing speakers generally require more power to drive. Home theater amplifiers are not enough power. Now we must not only promote 11 speakers. If we encounter a large landing box that resembles a tiger, the effect will not be good.
Suggestion: Recommend to choose the same brand can be wall-mounted or wall-mounted speakers, try to choose the same series, and the first three consistent.
Here Xiaoyao recommended a German ELAC wall-mounted small speakers, imported from Germany, the effect is very good. Horizontal and vertical can be. The price will not be released, and interested students will search for themselves or call us.
ELAC 1645
2. Top speaker selection:
Do not ignore it because it is a speaker overhead, thus affecting the overall effect of the theater.
A typical audio dealer/installer will recommend such a ceiling speaker for you. Open the hole directly in the ceiling and stuff it in. Installation is convenient and the price is cheap. But the effect, especially the low-frequency effect, is totally uncontrollable or not at all.
Ceiling speaker installation
It is recommended to use a ceiling speaker with a back box or a special speaker back box inside the ceiling. As shown below:
With back box
Of course, it is also possible to select a small speaker that can be mounted on the stand and lift it to the top of the head.
Lifting bracket
It is recommended that the top speakers are not sloppy and should be carefully selected and carefully installed.
3. Subwoofer selection:
Regarding the subwoofer, it can't be said for three days and three nights. Xiao Shao is here to make a preview, there will be a lot of subwoofer topics.
See more of the site's speaker kit recommendations, some value-friends may think that the package of toy-like small guns enough, it is not. In general, an area of ​​20 square meters requires at least a 12-inch subwoofer to satisfy the reduction of super bass in the movie.
In addition to the power and unit size of the subwoofer, ease of use and automatic EQ are also crucial. Because in an ordinary home use scenario, it is impossible for everyone to be an audio expert and a professional instrument, and the position of the subwoofer cannot be arbitrary. At this time, the advantages of the remote control function and the automatic EQ appear undoubtedly.
Recommended here is the German ELAC series of subwoofer 2050/2070/2090/S12EQ series, is currently the only mobile phone APP on the market for remote control and EQ subwoofer. link address

Well, so far a set of best quality home theater basically formed. Siu-hsien does not hesitate to tangled up with those wire rods, decorate anything, and temporarily do not discuss domestic appliance makers who are not so motivated. Even if you can acquire the Japanese home appliance company's home appliances sector, it is still impossible to formulate new technical standards. , leading the technological innovation. I don't name my name here, thinking about flicker all day, thinking about nondescript advertising, is it interesting? What do you see?
Do not talk about the part of the voice that is too big. Such a home theater is absolutely leading in picture quality , and technology is the biggest productivity. Advances in technology make it easy to make old classics outdated antiques.
Many enthusiasts talk about picture quality. They will say how good the "black level" of the previous three-gun projection is and how the simulated colors are; or that the home must have hundreds of thousands of three-chip DLP projectors, so that the brightness is enough. Only the so-called "sunshine feeling" of the picture. But many times, enthusiasts have forgotten that technological progress is to serve people, and people should not be slaves of technology. It is to guard the equipment that is big and heavy, difficult to debug, and expensive, and spend a lot of time and energy to improve the limited results. Still embracing new technologies and gaining considerable improvements immediately through technological innovation, I believe most people's choices are very clear.
This is the original intention of Xiaozhuo here to code this article.
Oh yeah, we may still be confused about the choice of devices that support HDR/4K, for fear that we will choose products that do not support HDR. It does not matter that the Ultra High Definition Alliance has announced a new certification standard - ULTRAHD PREMIUM . In the future, as long as you see this sign, it means that the device fully supports the HDR/4K standard. Of course, some of the early devices are not certified, but they are also supported. This requires careful identification.
ULTRAHD PREMIUM
In the end, there is no basis for speaking. Xiaoyao found 2 SONY's latest official demo videos for everyone. The content is exactly the same, all 4K. The difference is one is HDR, one is the current common format, for everyone to download and save. Friends who have HDR equipment at home can use it to compare tastes. Friends who have no equipment can also temporarily collect them. " Enjoy the scenery in the camp is good, just look at the equipment."
