    Infinte Baffled Subwoofer for Blu-rays below 25Hz

    With Aaron's assistance, i'll have an infinite baffled subwoofer in addition to the 2 existing subs. The IB sub will be (4) 15" drivers to give me a Blackhawk Down chopper in the house. How about we put together a list of titles that are known to go below 25Hz.

    We already have a thread (your own) for movies with good bass content (Explosions and all) => http://audioshark.org/subwoofers-13/...l#.Ukz2pdLMB8E

    * If you want a real chopper (sound realism) in your room, like the ones used in 'Black Hawk Down', you need to do better than that. ...And besides, these pilots and co-pilots use headphones for music listening. ... Ha!

    I'm not sure they all go below 25Hz. It would be nice if this little tidbit was listed on the plastic case of the disc where they list the audio format.

    Oh they go down to at least 25Hz, in that short list from post #4. ...They were visualized on a Multichannel Sound Pressure Level Meter display by pro movie reviewers (a bunch from WidescreenReview).
    {They use a Dorrough pro audio 7.1 multichannel level meter and real-time full frequency display analyzer.}

    If they would indicate all pertinent information for movie buffs and bass freaks and sound/music lovers on the liner notes or back cover, they would have no room left for original screen aspect ratio, various hi-res audio soundtracks, languages, etc.
    * Did you also notice that for some of them (quite a few actually) you need some magnifying glasses to read the minuscule lettering. ...I hate that! ...Talkin' 'bout Blu-ray here.

    I think that in addition to your two existing subs, that new IB project of yours with four 15inchers is going to rock your palace!

    Let me make a new list of movies on Blu-ray especially for you. ...Just give me some time...
    Meanwhile everyone else is also free to contribute.
