The Strato E has been an outstanding player throughout my testing. Comparing it side by side with the Strato V, I didn’t notice any difference in audio or video quality. What makes it especially compelling is that it gets you into the Kaleidescape ecosystem at a much lower price, without sacrificing the core performance or features that make the platform so desirable.
With performance that matches or exceeds that of 4K Blu-ray, the Strato E – or for that matter any of Kaleidescape’s movie players – is a must for home cinema owners who take quality seriously.
The Kaleidescape Strato E represents the easiest and most affordable way to achieve the best possible video and sound quality when watching movies and TV shows in the comfort of your own home. While it will most likely find favor with people who have custom-built home cinema setups, its ease of use and ability to integrate with any system does mean anyone can get involved. It’s not cheap compared to 4K Blu-ray players, but as the cheapest 4K player from Kaleidescape, it’s great value for money.
