Best DEMO DVD's to show off your system? Not full movie DVD's

[Triplicate]

I've read the "Best DVD's to show off your Home Theater.... " threads but I'v been wondering what about the best *DEMO* DVD's?. You know, the one with trailers and/or cut scenes design to some many things all on one DVD.

I've seen a number of "Demo" DVD's on ebay with trailers and other stuff designed to show off your Home Theather.

Some of them come in "dts" 6.1 and others have DD 5.1 and some are THX. Did I miss something

So help me/us out here. If I buy one disk (ok maybe two) what should it be?

(well maybe I'll buy three if I have too. )

Any thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Also check out the surround music here.

Blue Man Group and The Crystal Method are pretty amazing for 5.1

These ones listed above are all off topic. They are full movies. Yes you can demo your system with them but they are not Demo DVD's

I'm trying to gather a list of "Demo" DVD's specifically design for that purpose.

They may have movie cuts, trailers or specifically designed material to push the limits of your Home Theater System. They have special video / audio material to show off the HTS.

Okay, DOLBY has one like that, you can find it on their online store.

Almost forgot these! Great for those of you without SACD or DVD-A but have a DTS decoder. Telarc is the best as far as recordings go.

Is it an original DVD though?, or is it a compilation of ripped trailers put onto a writable DVD?

I went into Ultimate Electronics the other day and they had a DTS demo disk with clips from movies with amazing surround efects, I wonder if I went in and tried to buy the demo disc they'd sell it to me. I had seen Behind Enemy Lines a bunch of times, must have always been in Dolby Digital b/c there is a scene in this movie where they are flying some jets around and the sound was unbelievable in DTS, so good in fact I went and bought the movie right after, but I'd really like a demo disc like they had
