Try Titan AE Ice Field, Toy Story II intro, Star Wars Bubble, T2 THX logo.
That'll show up the limitations of the Rel Storm. I know ;-) Sub calibrated
to 85dB, others to 85dB, in a 4m x 4m room, normal listening level at -20dB.
Not really the fault of the Rel, just LFE + re-directed 5.0 bass is recorded
so damn hot that unless you sub overkill yourself you'll just hear
distortion. For 95% of films it's good, no problem with music or concert
DVD's, but if it sounds ****e for that last action movies of 5% it's worth
changing for (or using THX Sub Peak limitor to limit the maximum possible
output regardless of master volume) Brothers Yamaha bottomed out in Star
Wars Bubble. God that sounded ****e :-)
What is this Star Wars Bubble you speak of?
