    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD exhibits a nicely rendered color scheme with a warm quality, with lots of browns to help create mood. Fleshtones appear natural, and blacks are quite solid.

    Reason #4 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review to get the facts on equipment and industry news. I started reading your magazine as a consumer and found your level of education and technical detail refreshing when compared to the audio/video mass I read before.Now I run my own custom home theatre company and find your mag invaluable in keeping up with the direction this industry is going. I also give a subscription as a gift to each of my customers knowing that they will be further educated and will enjoy their equipment even more.
