I adore this movie.

What would I need to watch a 4k disc?

A 4k or better TV, obviously, but can a regular blue-ray player play these or would I need a new one?

To get everything I think you need a sound system that can reproduce the lowest sounds. I've heard the base gets so low you can only feel it. Not sure if that's true as I can't find what I had read about it.

Master and Commander sounds amazing on a great system, but honestly, it's so well done that it sounds pretty smashing even on a basic 5.1.
The sound designers really knocked it out of the park.

It won an Oscar for Best Sound Editing, too!
