Aj72

The mains and center look pretty impressive and capable of moving some air.  By comparison that sub looks a bit anemic.  I'll bet it's loud, but probably not too deep.

Looks like Klipsch KLF 30's and a KLF C-7 centre. A great combination!

Saw Star Wars in Gold Class which is the premium seat theatre here. I walked out with a headache and bass was average (in the theatre). Never experienced headaches at home and played much louder. This is the only movie I've watched since hocking off my gear. Depressing.

Having been on many chat rooms and forums over the past 17 or so years, it's always sad to see great contributors to the hobby move on. I understand the desire to follow your passions and laud it, Take care and drop in once in a while, my friend.

 

We'll make sure there's a system in the corner stamped "Aj72" waiting for ya.

I'll definitely be back bigger and better! Next time it will be Infrasonic!

We'll miss ya Aj, hope you'll still pop in once in a while to see what's up.  I have to ask, what's the new passion you'll be getting into?

 

Motorcyles! I'll still be lurking from time to time so I keep fresh on the latest and greatest right here. Lukeamdman's "basic amplifier thread" is piquing my interest at the moment.

Enjoyed this site immensely and thanks to everyone who's given advice along the way. Sold all my gear today so will no longer be able to vote! Pursuing another passion. Really great site here and I've spent many hours following other threads because they hold much interest even though much of it went over my head. Bosso if I can get one of your systems to Australia I might be knocking on your door when I decide to get back into it.

Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere here but cult classic Kung Fu Hustle on bluray had some nice bass moments in it. It is a subtitled movie but a great one at that.

so if ragnarock blu ray has to be watched.. it has to be Norwegian 5.1 DTS-HD MA with english sub titles on?  and not selecting to watch the movie with English 5.1 DTS-HD MA ?

 

TIA

 

PS:

Ragnarock Blu Ray on sale at BestBuy.com & Amazon.com for $9.99 + FS

 

Also can someone please confirm if the blu ray does comes with dubbed english audio ? as mention on blu-ray.com website ?

 

 

 

For my review I watched with subtitles.

 

Agree completely Max on Kingsman.

Thanks for the welcome.

 

And initially that is what I thought, but looking at the graphs w particular time stamps, there looks to still be a significant amount in the 20hz-80hz range for Star Trek. That first graph, I can tell you I feel and hear almost nothing at all.

I've got Captivators with 17Hz port tune. I find Star Trek not to be at all lacking even though I don't experience full bandwidth effects. However when I watched this for the first time something was amiss. Can't recall exactly but I think it was just after I moved house and hadn't EQ'd properly. I didn't get what the fuss was about but redid the EQ and it was night and day. A great bass movie.

 

Oh.... And welcome to Data Bass.

Watched Monsters Dark Continent today. Didn't love the movie but a couple of decent bass scenes in it. Although I really didn't see all of the movie to be honest so don't take this review as gospel.

Found them.  Looks pretty good to me.  Looks full range and I would say it was an overall stellar track.  Hand many good punchy and room shaking moments.  But this wasn't rated right?  I may have missed it but I would have rated it pretty high.

 

Yes it was pretty good but did stir up a bit of controversy.

Some good scenecaps from Bosso in "The Equalizer" thread already voted on a little while back. Covers some of the big hits.

 

Also some caps (Bosso again) back in the "LF films 2014" thread and "Low frequency content" thread as well as some robust discussion about this film.

Nube. Got Jupiter Ascending ready to go tomorrow. One vote closer to the end for that one. Wish I could watch the damn things earlier except for the bloody release to video here in Australia. Movies released in the cinema at the same time as U.S but video releases are two months behind. WTF?

^^^^^^^Would be a case for cashback given HUM is the root of all hometheatre/cinema evil.

Had seen "The Haunting" mentioned over the years but just watched it for the first time today on DVD. Got to say it was very impressive and the movie wasn't too bad either. Reminded me a bit of the "Ragnarok" mix as far as bass is concerned. Very good.

Off topic but can't upload a pic to my Avatar using ipad4. Any suggestions?

Yes a great moment. Kremlin explosion also very impressive. Took a look at the list of movies at the beginning of this thread and dug up whatever I hadn't watched in the 4.75 category. Nube had done a brief on it too giving it a good wrap. Pleasant surprise and probably the best one in the series IMO.

MI4 Ghost Protocol well worth a watch. Great audio, bass was excellent too.

How about the Club scene from John Wick. A super cool scene this one just revisited it myself only hotter this time than previously. Not sure if it belongs in this thread but pounds for some time.

Yeah my wife hates them. I picked up the 5.5's new but all the rest I've bought used for dirt cheap so couldn't resist. I feel like my system is sort of like the millennium falcon "Not much to look at but can make the jump to light speed".

Was just okay for memory but don't remember it being boomy. Lacked variety though.

Anybody know anything about PROEL Amplifiers? Specifically the HPX6000? Cheap but are they a piece of crap for sub duty? Can't find much on them.

"It's a nice, fairly clean mix (unlike the upcoming 30Hz blockbuster that everyone's raving about because it's so loud). "

 

Interstellar?

That is a pretty good price on a 9000i. That amp should be close to a pair of XLS 5000's on real world content, even if it may not be quite as capable of being used for welding. I doubt you'd have the circuits required to weld with a pair of XLS 5000's anyway. I don't know the roll off for sure but Crown has seemed to favor a 8Hz DC filter for their lightweight amps in years past. It should be -3dB at 8Hz at dropping rapidly below that point.

Thanks Josh

What do you guys think about the Crown 9000i Macrotech amplifier? Quotes 8Ohm bridge at 6000W. I already have a Crown XLS 5000 and it is rated 20Hz with rolloff below that (how much I'm not sure). The specs say rolloff below 20Hz also for the 9000i but would this mean similar or the same to the XLS5000 rolloff? I am happy with the result to port tune using the XLS5000 but was looking at replacing my Behringer EP4000 which is power limited. The 9000i seems like it would be way more than enough power to run my Captivator but is that a bad thing if I don't use it all? I can pick up the 9000i for about $1200 used in Australia would like to know what others think about this amp.

Not sure what my next purchase will be but tend to buy used and keep things for up to a decade technology permitting. Pretty happy at the moment. Very happy with the bargain buying on some of my gear here too!!
