Edit: I assume you mean Tron Legacy and not the orignal correct?

Yes i meant Legacy. Gonna watch it again tonight. Any remarkable scene i should look for? I don't want to watch the whole thing again.

PS

Can you guys recommend me a good test tone cd>?

Thanks!

Elf, the scene when they first do the neon motorcycle competition is the one used on scubasteve's demo disc. It will blow out all my incandescent bulbs if I'm not careful.

Do a search for scubasteve's disc. It also has the test tones on it you're looking for.

For me, its as soon as he enters the grid - flying around on those giant staple looking ships and when in the arena. Just awesome.

Thanks Fellas. Will watch it again @ -20DB and report back

Caveat: I tend to listen at between -15 and -10 - subs flat.
post #2256 of 8736
Yeah, you've definitely got some issues if you're not getting much out of Tron. Probably a dip in your room response at whatever frequency Tron is hot at, 'cause it goes pretty deep and powerful. Deepest bass I've EVER heard in a theater and it's equally impressive in my system.

Looks like I can AirPlay the tones. Is that ok? Or do I have to burn a cd to get accurate results?

That film had the most exaggerated explosions lol

I need to re-watch. This gives me a good reason too. It has been a while so my memory could be off a little. This is the BD correct?

I dont use AirPlay so I dont know. I've only done it via CD. It's a lot more time consuming that something like REW or OmniMic but it was free, simple enough to use and helped me narrow down a good location for my sub.

I've used the CD but I'm not terribly knowledgeable about it so if you have any detailed questions on it, you may want to contact Ethan Winer via PM or email or start a new thread.

Just an FYI. You will want to use an actual SPL meter and follow the instrx on that site. I only mention that as I know some folks starting using their Iphones as an SPL meter with certain apps but I'm not sure that's accurate.

Sorry for the Off Topic.

I again want to thank all those that contribute to this tremendous thread.

Question;
Just as some of the big LF effects are spectrally wide-band in nature (like relatively high levels of 5hz, all the way up to 60-80hz and above), which movie scenes come to mind that possess low frequency effects that are primarily hot in the range of around 20hz or so, and below?

Thanks

Thanks. I will shoot him a pm.

Ps

Yes. I had to turn this one up a little more than most, but after that it was awesome!

Mortal Kombat Legacy has some really good bass. Nice watch too, it reminds me of Battlestar Galactica only much more action and much faster paced. It has to be cuz each of the 9 episodes is only about 10 minutes long.
post #2267 of 8736
Wow colombiana sure had a lot of bass.

Got around to it this evening. I was at four and a half for most of the movie, and then the police barricade scene came along. Good grief. The god killer gun vs. the motorhome was equally impressive.

I think I'm going to vote five stars on this one, just for those two scenes. About as demo worthy as it gets from where I sit. Would love to see how far the extension goes on this one, but of course I'm limited to about 14Hz or so.

Between this and Elektra, I think I've had enough bass movies for one week.

Have you tried this one?

Pulse(2006)
"There are some frequencies we were never meant to find.

Based on Kiyoshi Kurosawa's cult J-horror movie Kairo, Pulse delivers an equally frightening dose of supernatural horror fused with a distinct fear of technology."

That's one of the most famous bass scenes in the history of cinema. Too bad the movie is terrible, an absolute cinematic disaster. Also, its content is almost all centered at 20hz going up, and I think FOH was talking about movies that have content trending the opposite direction. Here are just a few of the many waterfalls taken of Pulse: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1127163

I'm doing a screening of Real Steel tonight with some "subwoofer buddies" and will let the masses know how it sounds. I was really disappointed to find this one isn't in 3D...it seems like the perfect film for 3D.

Hopefully the studios will smarten up when it comes to 3D and use it when they should in certain cases like Real Steel. They should just quit the post-production converting of films into 3D which is just a major waste of time. So many movies which could have been epic if filmed properly in 3D but instead they are converted. Films like Thor and Captain America should have just been left alone. I'm really looking forward to Transformers: Dark of the Moon. At least this was shot in 3D and when I saw it in IMAX it was beautiful. Had the 3D blu been available for XMas I'm sure the amount of 3D tv's sold before 2012 would have been noticed. Instead the studios screwed up again...

The movie reminded me so much of HITMAN. Almost the same type of story.

Nope, but I'm gonna check it out tonight. I like what I've heard of theirs before. Also, it still doesn't really fit what FOH was talking about, I think.

wow is that your video??
post #2278 of 8736
Real Steel had okay bass but no scenes worthy of individual mention that would be subwoofer demo material. The movie was actually pretty good tho for what amounts to a kids movie.

Sorry about the video quality, but it was more the subwaves and what they do to the inventory - that I wanted to capture...

When playing Jurassic Park from the CD "The Great Fantasy Adventure Album" I captured this one too...

Sweet. What sub do you have??
