well i have had the sub for a little while now, and i have previously seen (heard m & C) a while ago on standard dvd with my old set-up.

last night i decided to watch this on blu ray, and with the new set-up. I have to admit this was the first full movie sub experience i have ever felt/heard. ever.. i have transformers, and the new hulk which are mind blowing but my god when the ambiance in the first few minutes came thru, and the first battle took place i could not help but laugh (i know pretty crazy)

this sub is the best ht purchase i have made to date, i had no idea what bass was supposed feal/sound like. My chair shook, i felt the cannon fire in my chest, un-freekin real.....

if you have not watched this in a while then do it....:D:D:D:D:D


WOW

old set-up

Glad you are enjoying the new sub! Yeah, good LFE reproduction really heightens the overall movie experience tremendously.

Ditch-digger, is your sub in the NEW pic...where did you position it in the room?? Also, do you notice ANY port noise during the heavy bass scenes?

I have the A5-350 on my decision list thread (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1156540), but a lot of people don't chime in with as their recommendatin.

Thanks ditch-digger! Very nice room and sub. It seems it is hush hush, but can you atleast say if it is a better deal than the current $1400 shipped for 2...posted on their site??

Are you saying that you can get two B-STOCK A5-350's for $580 each or are they are selling A-Stock for $580 each shipped but you have to call and ask for that price or you pay $1,400 for the pair as shown on the web site?
