QUOTE(ronnt88 @ Mar 8 2010, 02:25 PM) wah... after reading the review at amazon, seems like a must buy lai & like wat u said, win so many awards now same director with point break which i liked a lot will see if i can get it from stores next week  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.

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. http://hi-fi-avenue.blogspot.com/2010/03/j...t-of-sound.html

QUOTE(mikapoh @ Mar 18 2010, 07:31 PM) How much you bought from HK? Give us review on its DTS-Master 7.1 mixing will you?  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.

QUOTE(mikapoh @ Mar 28 2010, 12:15 PM) 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.

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.
