    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture appears slightly soft and lacking in fine detail. Colors are well balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks.

    Reason #60 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I feel the picture/sound reviews are very accurate. The reference systems are awesome. The WSR staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The on-line version of the magazine is a great reference tool. It is the most technically advanced home theatre magazine out there. If you consider yourself a serious home theatre buff, you should subscribe! It doesn't get anymore cutting edge than your Reference Holosonic Home Theatre Laboratory. Gary Reber has the coolest job on the planet!
