If you enter our AV test room, you will find a vast selection of 4K Blu-rays lining the shelves. That includes many new discs, but there is also a healthy collection of older movies that have had a 4K restoration. Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, for instance, has quickly become a go-to for testing both sound and picture quality.
But how do these 4K restorations actually happen? To answer that question, I headed to Silver Salt Restoration, which has restored countless titles. These range from Hammer Horror films, including The Curse of Frankenstein, to the 1995 TV adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.
