The best streaming alternative to 4K Blu-ray is now much cheaper and now supports Dolby Vision


Kaleidescape is known for its high-spec movie players, devices that rival the best 4K Blu-ray players and streaming devices. Its Terra Prime solid-state movie server may be the best movie system you can buy, but it’s also awfully expensive – nearly $14,000 (around £11,000 / AU$21,000) for the server and movie player. If that’s a little out of your budget, the new Strato V movie player is more affordable. It’s still a premium product, but it’s less than a third of the price.

The new player works both as a standalone device and as part of a wider Kaleidescape system, and can store around 10 reference-quality 4K movies on its internal SSD. There’s a new, streamlined version of the company’s interface (see below), which we’ve previously praised – this version has been refined to be more suitable for smaller libraries rather than full-blown movie servers. And it has Dolby Vision and lossless audio for a truly immersive home cinema experience.
