4K Blu-ray is a staple source for testing the best TVs and the best soundbars here at TechRadar and has been for years. In late 2024, I started the Blu-ray Bounty, a monthly column where we review the best new 4K discs from each month, testing how they can help really show off what your home theater can do.
I’ve been fortunate enough to test some amazing discs this year and just in time for choosing Christmas gifts, I’ve whittled down the list to 12 of my favorites that I’d recommend for movie lovers.
Looking for a disc to test your sound system? You can’t go wrong with Wicked and its sweeping, powerful tracks or The Sound of Music‘s iconic track list – I found that both utilized Dolby Atmos impressively. Sinners is another brilliant demonstration disc, with one barn scene showing off directionality and sound mapping excellently.
