Kaleidescape Strato M Movie Player
Kaleidescape’s entry-level movie player, redefined. Providing lossless audio and reference-quality 2K video output, Strato M works on its own or as part of a Kaleidescape system.
Lossless Audio That Hits Hard
Strato M delivers pure, lossless audio—exactly how the director intended. You get full support for high-end codecs like Dolby Atmos, Dolby TrueHD, DTS:X, and DTS-HD Master Audio, giving your processor, amps, and speakers everything they need to shine. Clearer dialogue. Deeper rumble. More emotion in every scene.
Reference-Level 2K Video
Strato M plays back 4K content in HDR10, Dolby Vision, and BT.2020 with 4:2:2 chroma, but it outputs in 2K resolution. What that means: sharper, more accurate color reproduction that goes beyond standard Blu-ray. Perfect for rooms where you’re seated 1.5x the screen size (or farther).
Downloaded, Never Streamed
Forget buffering. Every Kaleidescape movie is downloaded—not streamed—at up to 100 Mbps to local SSD storage. That means no compression artifacts or bitrate drops. Unlike Blu-rays, there are no disc size limits here. The full fidelity of the studio's mezzanine file gets preserved and played back as intended.
Standalone, with Room to Grow
Out of the box, Strato M stores about 6 high-bitrate movies on its built-in 480GB solid-state drive. Downloads are fast over gigabit Ethernet and are eligible for auto-delete 48 hours after viewing to free up space. Every movie you buy is always re-downloadable.
When you're ready to scale up, Strato M integrates seamlessly with Terra Prime servers and other Kaleidescape players—turning a small system into a whole-home setup.
Scalable for Bigger Systems
Build your system how you want it. Group Strato M players together or pair them with a Terra server to access larger movie libraries instantly. Add a Strato V to your main theater for 4K output and keep Strato M in the bedroom or living room.
Pairing with a server unlocks advanced features like:
- The Kaleidescape covers view for easy browsing
- Full parental controls and access to the child remote
- Up to four servers and unlimited players per system
Simple Installation
Tuck it behind your TV or mount it cleanly with official rack shelves or wall hardware. Either way, setup is easy.
