Product Description
Kaleidescape is pleased to announce Strato M, a new entry-level movie player for residential, marine, and commercial theatre systems.
Like all Kaleidescape movie players, Strato M features lossless multi-channel and spatial object-based audio, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Strato M supports reference 2K video, with better codec and higher bit rates and bit depths than Blu-ray, including Dolby Vision, HDR10, BT.2020, and 4:2:2 chroma.
Strato M works on its own or as part of a larger Kaleidescape system. As a standalone system, Strato M provides a single playback zone that holds a half-dozen movies on an internal solid-state drive – downloading a movie in about ten minutes over gigabit Ethernet. It features a streamlined interface, optimized for navigating a small movie library, offering automatic offloading of watched movies 48 hours after playback to make room for more movies. Purchased movies can be re-downloaded at any time. Strato M can also be grouped with Terra Prime movie servers to increase storage. This returns Strato M’s interface to the full Kaleidescape user experience.
Strato V, Strato C, and Strato M movie players can all be grouped together with one or more Terra movie servers, to fit your customers’ entertainment needs. Strato V (US MSRP $3,995) is perfect for primary zones that support Dolby Vision, while Strato C (US MSRP $2,995) is perfect for primary zones that do not support Dolby Vision, and Strato M is perfect for zones with viewing distance greater than 1.5 times the screen diagonal. Note that Strato V & M can work standalone, whereas Strato C requires a server.
