winchester21 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I am posting this section even though there has been discussion in the Movie section of the Forum. I have been tinkering with mostly 2 channel stuff lately so I have not had many chances to give my recently modded HT setup much time. The selection on TW cable is horrible and opportunities are limited. Blue ray stuff is always rented out at Blockbuster Today we did a PPV from TW in demand - Terminator Salvation. Typically TW feed is marginal at best. This PPV was a total surprise. The video feed was excellent. The audio through the Heritage stuff was phenominal. This one will give your system a real work out and may reveal areas for your next upgrade. I highly reccomend this DVD. It is IMHO near the quality of the Transformer for a show off your stuff test DVD. I am confident that the DVDs particulary Blue ray would be even better. I plan to buy this one in BR.

Buckeye_Nut Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 video/audio quality aside...I was disappointed in this movie. my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I thought the same thing myself. The surround effects are plentiful throughout the movie and the LFE track gave my IB a chance to breathe a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrod Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks for the review! I'll check it out, I'm always looking for new demo stuff to show my friends how much better my system is than theirs[6]! As far as crappy Blockbuster selection goes... Go Netflix and never look back! I pay $11/month for 2 BD's at a time, unlimited. I'm about to watch The Hurt Locker, in a couple hours I'll toss it in the mailbox and I have T:Salvation in my mailbox by Wednesday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstrickland1 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 That's the first blue ray I watched after getting the LaScala from you. There's a scene where a helicopter moves slowly from left to right and it was then that I knew what I had been missing all these years. Seamless from left channel to center channel to right channel.I thought I had it when I had 3 KLF 30's across the front but even that wasn't perfect. That is a great demo movie and will work the crap out of your sub(s) as well. Did you score on that local RSW-15? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winchester21 Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Billy- I am so glad that you are enjoying the center LS. Since you were here I got the 2nd B&K 4420 hooked up to the Cornwall surrounds. Night and day difference. Give me a shout next time you come through Charlotte and check it out.

Dr. Jim Mixon Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Just got it from Netflix this AM. Watched Marine 2 this PM, not bad but screenplay not up to video/audio. The sub gets a good workout though. I'm glad I caught ya'll on this thread; tomorrow I'll look forward to Terminator Salvation on BR.k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
