actually I listen to a cannon demo before by a friend in his car with DLS setup and a twin 12" sub at the back. The fire power cannon is like Wowwwww, something really make your hair behind your neck stand up. U know what I mean....
I remember the CD was a Chesky records. Maybe is Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture. I cant remember for sure.
http://www.avrev.com/music-disc-reviews/dv...2-overture.htmlSo recording and reproduce fire power is possible. There is a WARNING on the disc.
"Caution! DSD Cannons!"
" With its live cannons and astonishing dynamic range, it quickly became the ultimate demo disc – and the ultimate test for a home sound system."
"This recording is an astonishing achievement, both technically and logistically. It sounds excellent; the performance is fine and flawless, especially the children’s choir and the Kiev chorus; the surround placement consists of sensible arcs across a wide front stage, with the cannons all around you to great effect. You will want to use this disc as a demo record, but if you do, first be sure to find out what level the cannons should be, starting at low level –
they really are very loud and take full advantage of the hundred-and-something dB of dynamic range offered by both systems. It is one of the best recordings I have the pleasure of owning."
Anyone own this demo disc?
My bro has a Telarc CD with part of Tchaikovsky's 1812 in it. Tested it before. Amazing power.
jchong has put a link here before; Finale 4. It's a recording of firework displays. Very good to test subwoofer.
