Magnetar Reference Universal Ultra HD Players Now Available at HFL!
Hi Everyone,
No I don't know if it is just me and if I actually have a problem but I have always been excited by Highend Blu Ray Players, probably a little too much to be honest, this all started when Pioneer announced their stunning BDP-LX91 back in 2009, I got one of the first of these in the country and absolutely loved it, then Oppo came along with their truly brilliant players that we really did sell a lot of, I'll always remember the day I received the news that they were pulling out of the market, that is one decision I still don't understand to be honest, then Pioneer came back with the BDP-Lx500 and LX800 players which again moved the game on and were really popular, but now they are no longer available we were left with a huge gap in the market, where do people go now if they want the very best picture and sound quality? as I firmly believe that if you want the best you still can't beat spinning an Ultra 4K disc, I still get calls weekly to see if I can source one of the Pioneer players which shows there is still a hungar for physical media, much like music we are spoilt now with all the streaming services but you just can't beat firing up a BD Player, popping in a 4K disc and being transported to another world as Hollywood intended, for me it is all about the sound quality you get from a disc, it is very much superior to what streaming services offer.
Well fear not as we now have Magentar and I am delighted to say we have been appointed as one of their dealers, from reading reviews and looking at the specs it really does appear that these guys are really pushing the boundaries of what is possible with an Universal player, I'm sure a lot of you are thinking who the hell are Magnetar but then I remember having those questions asked regarding OPPO, I can see in years to come Magnetar will be a much loved brand as OPPO where.
So much like Oppo and Pioneer before Magentar have 2 players available, the slimmer designed UDP800 then the flagship UDP900, these are priced at £1399 and £2699 respectively so not cheap but whereas OPPO and Pioneer where built to match certain price points Magnetar have come at this with the mindset to offer the very best quality and the price is the price but to be honest I still don't think they are overly expensive and I am just grateful that we have Magnetar on the scene to cater for us film lovers that do want the very best picture and sound quality available.
Both these unit are bang up to date with the latest picture processing and audio codecs, we have both units on demo so if you'd like to come in to test either unit in our Atmos cinema room please feel free to get in touch to book an appointment.
