Recommendations on movie scenes for subwoofers

That's simple, go to your "Monsters Inc" DVD and look for the
chapter where Boo is crying and Mike and Sulley are doing everything possible to not only stop the crying but evade the
searchlights of the ominous helicopter. While the baby (Boo)
is crying there's an electrical current thing going on that
with the proper sub setup is frankly very hard to equal in the
sub-sonic frequencies. I'm using two SVS PB12-plus/2 subs, that's four 12" drivers and 900 watts per sub of electrical
sonic dyamite. This chapter close to reference level will set
off my ADT security system.

try u571 will test your sub if its good or not

Take a look at the SVS website they give lots of movie ideas with the tracks to listen to. www.svsound.com

Definitely "U-571". You should feel like you are in a submarine with those depth charges going off all around.

The opening scenes in "Master and Commander" are great for checking out your sub. The creaking floorboards and creaking ropes floating around the room are suddenly overwhelmed by the cannon shots followed by the strikes of the cannon balls hitting the ship. As my son would say: "woof"

The opening battle scenes in "Gladiator" get the job done as well, as does the "The Fifth Element"

There is some pretty good low frequency information happening in parts of "Blade Runner" too....

If you are into it, the "Drumz/Space" section of the Grateful Dead DVD "Truckin' Off To Buffalo" will energize your room.
