ClaudeJ1 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 "Dead in Tombstone" with Danny Trejo. Exercised my DTS-10's more than Flight of the Phoenix, overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derrickdj1 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) I normally don't watch very many cowboy movies. The last one that stomped out the LFE was Cowboys and Aliens. I will have to give this one a try. Edited January 26, 2014 by derrickdj1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudeJ1 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Well, I guess nothing beats the plane crash scene in FOTP, but, OVERALL, the amount of LFE used throughout the movie is what I'm talking about. Also like TRON. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudeJ1 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Also wanted to point out that the rental was a straight DVD (not Blue Ray) and Dolby D. Years ago, I took back an expensive Sony blue ray player because I couldn't tell the difference in the sound on the original Transformers DVD vs. Blue Ray version, only the picture quality. So I waited for prices to come down first. I think it's more the sound engineering rather than compressed vs. uncompressed in terms of SOUND. This "Dead in Tombstone" reminded me of this early comparison. Great sound and the picture was acceptable in a more economical format. I noticed that Family Video carries a lot of new titles in DVD only because not everyone has upgraded to Blue Ray. I suspect that some never will. When 4K comes around, I think they will be loading the movies onto thumb drives instead of renting plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the up conversion not much difference in PQ. Many of my DVD seem louder that the corresponding Bluray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 My system did not know how to handle "Brokeback Mountain." It was all too confusing..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
