The Master List of DVD, HD-DVD & Blu-ray Movies with BASS Thread...With WaterFalls - Page 51

I know Rush may or may not be your cup of tea,but it is some of the cleanest sounding mastering for a live setting that I've heard.Alot of people
criticize Rush for being perfectionists and sounding too pretty.But I disagree,
they are masters at their craft and I say more power to them.So any of the Rush Dvds are pretty bass strong especially on Pearts solos.

The Pulse DVD is actually recorded in two different bit rates, so if your player can handle the higher bit rate, you actually get a slightly better sound than the standard DD track. that and it's just a kick butt concert to watch. Especially the drummer going nuts on "Learning to Fly" during his solo.

DVD makes me sad I gave up smoking the herb many years ago.

Thanks for the heads up on Rush (another good concert DVD to watch)

Whew. Sure seems a lot more calm around here..

Does any one have a waterfall of the gunshot scene in Ratatouille?

Hey man,
Calm is good,but sometimes when someone bites you,you have to bite back.I think JBLs determination is alright for him,but if I dont seem to like it,dont bite my head off and cause me to get banned from a forum for trying to be courteous.I think you will agree with me.I was positive towards him,and he told me to bugger off,whatever that means.So I had to respond

let's get BACK on topic adults.

The last 2 pages should just be deleted and if peeps can't post good stuff on MOVIES then move along PLEASE! Sheeesh!

I posted the timestamps but I do not have the charts online...sorry.

DrPainMD [OP of this thread] ...Thanks

back on topic: lets cut the nonsense

I just watched National Treasure last night and the bass was OK. There were 2 parts in particular that had some nice bass. Probably the only parts. Made my pants flap but not make my hair stand up. The really good bass movie scenes will knock my door handle off(I really need to fix that).

Trust no one...

JBLsound4645,
Have you seen my subs? Check out my sig. I have a system capable of 122 db's at 10hz and 126 db's at 13-80hz. Making my seats shake is really easy. A movie like WOTW and Cloverfield with loud low bass will not just make my seats shake. BTW when I wear shorts and not pants My hair on my legs stand up. There is no escaping the effects of the bass in my room. I don't care what I wear. The sensation of your hair moving is a big deal, it means your room is pressurizing from the amount of low frequency in your room. The bass at the my theaters(JBL THX equipment which sounds very nice) can't compare to my room. I did this on purpose. I can reach the same amount of spl as the theater but mine will reach into single digits. Why so low, because the newer movies coming out are reaching deeper and deeper.

Yeah mate, I’ve seen them, was it last week or week before, but yes I’ve seen them. You not playing it with near to 100% 122dbc all the time because you’ll end up with tinnitus sooner or later and that is enough to make you feel really depressed, I Kidd you not mate.

So you would watch a film naked then, why not since it’s not in public place. LOL I might try some Cloverfeild sub bass naked when it comes out next month on region 2 DVD.

Just took another look at those pucker sub bass tubes and you built them in day is that right?

Can you or is possible for you to do waterfall graph chart of an in-room frequency response of War of the Worlds (2005), I guess the level would be huge over the direct link to sub bass output to computer?

Trust no one...

The numbers I posted are peak numbers which occur only on the very heavy bass movie scenes at reference levels. Most action movies reach 110-115 db's. It took a weekend to build the subs. maybe 8-10 hours.
I don't have any equipment to make waterfall charts. I showed you the WOTW waterfall(from the beginning of this thread) chart just to illustrate how it was easy to read the chart with the pictures on the side.

If I was to put equipment in a big 200 seat cinema I would still use the JBL 4632 array's but with about 16 of my tubes. Lots of headroom from 10hz to 20khz.

Trust no one...

Trust no one...

Actually that scene is correct, it is not his sub. He should get very good response down to 20 hz with it in a small room. When they go inside is where the movie starts to dig deep into the teens and single digits.

Correct, but according to his chart the bulk of the response is between 30 and 40Hz. Not the 20Hz. But then again good acoustic treatments should help tame that some, but I see mostly bare walls. Also JBL recommends that one or two port plugs should be blocked for lower frequency response, (JBL - the company not poster says the sub will go down to 18Hz with two port plugs blocked) so even in other scenes, he still won't get much lower than 30hz with all three open like that with any scene, even Cloverfield.

But then again I also wouldnt have my CRT TV sitting on a big 20 year old subwoofer like that.

Trust no one...

I meant to say that his sub should get very good output down to 20 hz even without plugs, it won't be flat, but still good output. I used to use pro subs and they were killer from 25-80hz and then dropped off but still got really good numbers down low, just 10-15 db's down with no EQ. I wanted flat(did not need it) so I build these ugly monsters(I love them). That scene is mostly 30-40hz so I don't expect to see 20 hz. JBL should keep running that scene where tom cruise is looking out the window and see what his waterfalls produce. That part of the scene gets into single digits. If they don't show up then his waterfalls are limited by his sub.
The TV should be OK there BUT I would move it myself.

JBL,
Run the rest of the scene and see what you get.

Ashley and your neighbors in that apartment complex you live in, don't mind you playing those bass scenes at loud levels?

Trust no one...

I can't see that the mike would be accurate below or even at 20 Hz would it?

croseiv the sub can't go much below 30Hz without plugging the ports or adding distortion, so I don't think it will matter much anyway. But then again i also wouldn't add an EQ to the mono bass track either. Sigh.

What is all the confusion with all of these tests and microphones and wires and Grateful Dead Wall Of Sound Subwoofers.What happened to just taking the dvd out of the case putting it in the player and enjoying the movie?Just take and rent a dumpster.Use your receiver a television right,center,left,subwoofer,andtwo or three surround speakers.Thats all you need.The rest of that stuff is useless,that goes to the dumpster.To much confusion will make you more depressed than tinnitus will.I have been living with it for 20 years because of working around industrial wood working machines.

At least it's better than endless posts about older movies with hardly any bass at all.....I guess.

But do agree it is getting confusing.

I checked out your Strata Minis,they are gorgeous,My stuff is not even in the same league man.Maybe some day I will get to that level.For now I will have to stick with the rc-10s.

Thanks sgplayer, I use em in my home office and for music only, they are awesome (especially with the built in subs) But I don't want to hijack this thread anymore than it has, but thanks for the compliment.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled program.
