It packs a "punch", it's dynamic but not audiophile...

Image processing is quite good, with nice 4K emulation. Lacks some additional image settings that can be compensated for by the Blu-ray player. From an audio perspective, very comprehensive equipment, which allows for adjustments based on frequency zones. When listening to Blu-rays, for me the best setting remains a manual adjustment of the bands, with a "straight" HD sound output, on 7.1.2. I advise against activating YPAO management, as it allows all sounds to be audible, but at the expense of spatialization. This can be useful for music, but not for home cinema. If you have the associated budget, I still recommend moving up to the 3050 to be able to manage ATMOS by including the angle of incidence of the speakers. ATMOS is far from being a gimmick; when the product is properly set up, the 3D sound view is absolutely perfect.
Pros: Nice products, great power capabilities at 140 W.
Cons: Well, what's missing from the 3050.

Excellent product. I highly recommend it!
Pros: easy to use, very good sound quality.
Cons: no paper manual included. You need a computer with a CD drive to access it.
