RE: 4K disc vrs blu-ray

Posted by Dave B on June 23, 2018 at 06:32:48:
I have the Sony X940E 75" and the X800 UHD BR player. Bandwidth for 4k streaming is an issue here, due to what service is available and how many devices are connected at any given time to my gateway.

I've gone the other route and have acquired 95 4K UHD discs of movies I like or were rated highly on blue-ray.com.

Of my previous BR discs at 1080, Avatar still looks really good upscaled. I recently put in Wall-E for the kids and it also looked quite good. So, my limited experience says that original BR discs used in a good hardware/dsp/firmware system can still look great.
