Built to work as a standalone system or as part of a larger whole-home entertainment setup, the Strato K also supports grouping with Terra movie servers for expanded libraries and multi-room flexibility.
Features
- 4K Cinematic™
Strato K introduces Kaleidescape’s exclusive 4K Cinematic video format. Taking advantage of its 8K processing power, 4K Cinematic provides full chroma (up to 4:4:4) and much higher bitrates. This additional color and image data produces incredible visuals, pulling you into the story and delivering a dramatic leap beyond today’s 4K.
4K Cinematic features much higher average bitrates than our standard 4K files, for greater detail and fewer compression artifacts. You'll see a sharper picture and natural motion that stays true to the original recording.
With up to four times the color information available on disc or streaming, 4K Cinematic’s vivid colors and clear imagery captivate the senses, pulling you into a cinematic escape where you can’t help but leave the world behind. - Native 8K
