Definitive Technology W Studio Wireless: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics
just a tad under £1500 for the full version
Definitive Technology W Studio Micro Ultra-Slim: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics
and just under £1100 for the micro.......so does suggested retail prices might need changing

Does the whole studio micro support 4K ? I cannot see a mention of any hdmi on their own website, or am I missing something
The micro only has optical/aux inputs. The current studio has 1.x HDMI ports but there is rumour of an updated 4K version.

Definitive Technology is distributed in the UK by Pulse Cinemas (www.pulsecinemas.com) who have hundreds of dealers around the UK so a demo would easily be possible.
Just FYI the Amazon sellers are based abroad and if brought through them there could be problems trying to claim the excellent 5 year warranty. Not to mention the prices are wrong.

@Steve Withers just FYI the Micro is the only bar that allows the use of 2 additional wireless speakers (W7/W9) to create a 5.1 setup. The Studio doesn't support this feature due to it being a 5.1 unit already.

Stone Audio is near me and I see it is now on their Website, so I will most probably be giving them a shout nearer the time. I am not ready to purchase for a few months but I want to be knowing what soundbar will meet my standards, audio quality wise and dimentions wise.

I can vouch for the audio quality of both the soundbars. I have a Studio in my office/spare room/gaming room and it's excellent.

@Steve Withers Is the wireless audio capable of supporting HD audio or just up to Dolby Digital Plus like the WiSA standard - or is DTS Play-Fi actually based on the WiSA standard?
"...the brand is the number one high-end loudspeaker manufacturer in the US"
Uhha.
There's a throw-away line in a press release if ever I read one.
Any stats to back that one up?
Also -mikelj, PlayFi and WiSA are not related.
Having used both, at this point I would suggest that WiSA has the most potential - especially if the 'hubs' are baked directly into TV's.

I don't have much experience with Play-Fi but I know it supports lossless audio transmission and high-resolution audio (24bit/192kHz).
