OMG! Transormers DVD Ch19 - 1:56:00

[mouettus]

I have never heard my Energy ESW-V10 play in that manner. Check your volume. Thought something was gonna blow. Seriously that is one friggin intense movie with insane LFE. Similar to the power outage scene on Monsters Inc. but way more intense. You will be playing this one for friends...I promise. In the scene in reference, it's like a sine sweep that dips really low, really loud. I was playing -9 on my RX-V1800 (sub @ -3db). I can't tell how low it went (??hz) but I guess around 20 for sure! My 10" couldn't take the last cycles though; I heard it fart a little. Pretty normal I guess. I got addicted to high SPLs for a minute, playing it over and over again, pushing it more and more at a time to reach my sub's limits.

Check out that scene and give me some numbers pls!

SD... I don't own HD DUD. It feels soooooo 2007! haha

Final battle scene. When the rest of the robots arrive. The tank shoots 2 missles, a robot makes a front flip, passing over them.

I ran Speclab well playing that clip, now given it's just a clip on YouTube, so I cannot say if it includes the LFE channel (or even all five main channels), or at what level dBFS the content is at, but there was content down to 10Hz. There actually was content to ~5Hz but at rather low level, most of the really loud stuff was at and above 25Hz.

Speclab eh? If I got that software and play the DVD in my computer could I tell what the original LFE track says?

First I would have to learn how to read a waterfall. I tried understanding that program once but failed.

If your soundcard picks up the LFE track, yes.

The Home Theater Shack has some information that could be of use.

im getting the feeling that the SD version has more bass than the HD version.

will have to buy the SD version when it gets a bit cheaper.

Haven't rta'd that one yet, but the Simpsons movie when the helicopters bring the dome in and drop it, my rta read a lowest frequencie of 12hz, and it actually rumbled the house pretty good on the speakers listed in my sig......

I might have to rewatch transformers yet a gain to see what your talking about, I have a feeling it might have something to do with a difference in room gain. I've read a lot of differences in oppinion on whether Transformers was a good bass movie or not. I thought it was for the most part average.

It's the Scene where Ironhide shoots the ground and flips over the chick.

It's been talked to death, and honestly didn't warrant it's own thread.

That's your opinion. But there is a thread now; just wanted to share this info. Take it or leave it.

I'll give it a whirl, and I'll get back to you. THere's some great bass in this movie for sure.

And I suppose all the threads you've started deserved to be here? How about your post as seen above? How useful is it?

 

[croseiv]

I ran it using my Ultra. The receiver's MV was set a -15 db (equivalent to 70 dB with Avia II). The sweep is pretty impressive and seems to go subsonic, but the Ultra didn't even break a sweat. I'll try it louder when people aren't around.

Amazingly, some people disagree with you!

Maybe you should let them be instead of publicly being a jerk towards them.

Went back and ran it again and measured the SPL with my digital SPL meter (radio shack) C weighted slow max. It peaked at 98 dB with my MV at -15. It's not that hot, but it does go pretty deep.

HD or SD DVD version?

Is there really a difference? It's been mastered at the same place. Once source is digitally compressed and the other one is untouched. There shouldn't be any difference. SHOULD not.

I myself have the SD version
