Picture quality? What's that, and do we even care?

I can't see myself replacing what I love, but your feedback certainly has me thinking about it. Mine already hits pretty low, and with a lot of authority... So I defiantly don't need more bass... and I can already get that bottomless feeling with what I have, and after all the FilmMixer discussion etc, I think I can hit as low as I need to get the director/engineer's intent. So, is your room really huge, or is the 15H even more dynamic/controlled? I just can't imagine my bass getting much better.

Same here. I purchased the MK3 before the 15H or the MK4 were made available, and I absolutely love it in a 2500 cu ft room! What ultimately sold me to upgrade was the versatility and Q-control function. Of course, I could have just gone with the MK4, but I figured why not make the upgrade really worth the purchase with a 15" driver. I'm even more in love with the fact that I can tune it for a tighter response without losing any of the low extension. It is freaking awesome, especially with music feeling fuller in the soundstage. In the end, the decision was based on the added dynamic control.

I also greatly appreciate FilmMixer's comments and insights on the intentions of a soundtrack's mix. He's convinced me that there's no need to upgrade again unless the 15H somehow fails or breakdowns. I'm completely satisfied for many years to come.

Great disc. The video is the highlight of this one IMO, but the audio is not far behind.

I know this is a movie thread... but I had to post this as well it completely blew me away. I had been playing Elder Scrolls: Skyrim for months on my PC but never bothered to run it on my Home Theater system. My PC speakers really only get down to around 38-40Hz, so I was missing out on a LOT.

Decided to run my PC on my HDTV and HT setup... I'd have to give this a 5 star rating, if we had a Bass Thread for games.

This is from a 5 min clip of me playing... 1 dragon fight & also fighting 2 giants.

It was a close race between video and audio when it was demonstrated last week, on this system, at a local dealer :

Thanks for the Skyrim graphs Shadowdane. I remember that game having great LFE. The first time one of those dragons came down was shocking with the low end in particular!

The Art Of Flight has been my GO TO demo disc for a few months now. It has never failed to WOW everyone I've shown it to. They all are floored just by the first few minutes where Dolby did an excellent job in showing what a good 7.1 system can sound like with good source material.

And yes, the PQ is even more amazing. I nominated it for the top Tier in the Blu-ray PQ Thread for it's even better than the Planet Earth series (it's much more consistent in its rich detail and depth).

Reference PQ and awesome audio aside, it is a fascinating disc even if you dont ride.

Watched Kim Jee-Woon's "The good, The bad, The wierd" Oriental western last night on Blu. Haven't watched it on my new system or in a long time. It has a cool DTS HD-MA track with some decent bass....especially towards the end. I would say it's a 3*-3.5*. Some of the gun shots in the surrounds had me jump out of my seat! eek.gif


And everyone should have The Art of Flight in their collection...no brainer.

Last time that movie came up in discussion I ordered it... I was not disappointed. My wife loved it too. Neither of us have any real interest in snowboarding... but it's just a great documentary with amazing production value.

No problem, I've been thinking about trying to put together a list of great 360 & PS3 games for Sound/Bass! There are quite a few games out there just have just as much bass as some of our favorite movies! biggrin.gif

wow nice thread, seems like a lot of effort.
Thank you.

I just picked up John Carter. It does not seem anyone tested this one out. Hows the bass on it?? Anyone? smile.gif Thanks
post #4076 of 8168
If you are expecting some good LFE from John Carter, you will definitely disappointing
post #4077 of 8168
What are everyone's thoughts on the audio and LFE of Act of Valor? I haven't seen it, yet, but was trying decide to rent, buy, or wait to buy cheaper.
post #4078 of 8168
Just a quick question, is it safe to assume that all movies listed are the blu ray versions unless stated otherwise.

John Carter is a major disappointment in LFE. The best it gets is during the arena fight with the white apes, but even that doesn't push the sub very hard, maybe a couple minor pockets that reach mid 30Hz but nothing else.

Great to know. I plan on buying it because my sons be begging to get it. I didnt have any intentions in watching it so I dont know what to expect, but by your post it seems to be not all that. Ok, I'll keep the a/v receiver on low volume wink.giftongue.gif

Thanks,
