Taukeh Ron, it is sort of 'Valkyrie'. Many conversations reflecting on life and death and a little action sequence.

The initial opening scene when the bomb is detonated really worth mentioning as it nearly 'rip' my room apart. Then, there is taxi ramming the road block and he fired shots. Solid LFE.

We have the ambush scene by sniper. The 50 cal M1 machine gun is really terrifying powerful. Then, the near ending part. That's all.

Bought I-Robot again to test out LFE since anfieldude said that it's darn good.

Top Gun.... ah, I auditioned the JBL Everest with this movie last week. Awesomely loud and powerful as if I am on the carrier's deck. Deafeningly loud when the tomcat took off. Nothing come close throughout my HT journey.

How much you bought from HK? Give us review on its DTS-Master 7.1 mixing will you?  tongue.gif

By HK / Asia std, Red Cliff's AQ is quite good. Apart from the dialogue being slightly muffled (as it was drown out by other special effects during fighting scene), the surround and sound clarity are quite well done. However, it was not such a case for Red Cliff II. The AQ is worse with the vocals being muffled and the audio seems a tad harsh at times. Surr was a tad too loud.

Is Band of Brothers rank among the best in terms of lossless AQ?

It was. Until recently, there are many releases with top-notch audio quality that up the ante (Expect more burn voice-coils, bottoms out sub, etc)

Terminator Salvation, Gamer, Taken, District 9, Hurt Locker and 9 have very good audio esp deep pounding LFE and background music.

Watched 'The International' today. Quite interesting and fast pace action. AQ not the best but still very good.

Tomorrow, going to watch 'Take That' concert.

Can't wait for Labour Day to watch all the BDs that I bought esp Avatar since I read in avsforum that its AQ is superb. Hopefully, my humble setup delivers.

For those who are new into HD, neither coaxial nor optical is able to send HD signal for avr to decode. You NEED HDMI cable in order to get HD audio.
