check this out. http://www.svsubwoofers.com/faq.htm#moviedemos

Some examples : Attack of the Clones, Phantom Menace, Black Hawk Down, Twister, LOTR. Some of these movies don't have lots of bass but when they do they go really low.

I used U-571 (DTS) and TITAN AE to pound on the Revel B-15 subwoofer, If you want to scare your friends these 2 dvds are a pleasure to listen to.

Try nyo ung "Pod Racing" sa Starwars EP1, grabe LFE nun!

where can i find these test disc? thanks

av_phile1 · « **Reply #17 on:** Aug 30, 2005 at 11:06 AM »

They're not really "test" discs in the true sense of the word, but really movies for showcasing the LFE capability of your set-up at certain sections of the movie. And you can use any of these sections to test. If you can get hold of those THX-certified DVD titles, there's always a THX segment there for audio and video test that you can use for more thorough assessment.

I always use DTS demo disk 4 & 8 (DTS-ES) to demo LFE & surrounds to my guests. Beats opening every DVD and forwarding to the awesome LFE & surround scenes.

Demo disk 4:Haunting, AntZ, SPR
Disk 8: LOTR TTT, Pirates of the Carribean, Daredevil, Gangs of New York

Believe it or not, the loud LFE of these demo disks serve as my stress reliever when I am tired.
Specially the explosion in LOTR TTT wall breach scene! Grabe, my HT room & sofa shakes from this scene.

Also:
Blade 2 (DTS-ES) Club scene
Day After Tomorrow (Flooding scene)
AVP
Sky Captain

The canon shots go really deep here, but not that loud. Like the 10hz in the SW pod races, they should tell you how low your subs can go, but not how powerful or slammy.

SAVING PRIVATE RYAN dts

While the first 30 minutes of SPR can test your sub for the explosions, it really does a better job more as a showcase of what a 5.1 surround set-up can do as the bullets criss-cross the room and the machine guns fire from every direction. It's probably the most intense surround activity cramped in 30 minutes.
