I somehow knew Ian was going to call you. I honestly have no idea how he does it. I am starting to suspect there are at least two Ians.

Cam, the movie you reference is Edge of Tomorrow. It is flat out, the most jarring LFE movie experience anyone can have with a sub. I had the same experience you reported.

Regarding your muted bass observation, the bass quality really varies depending on movie, music as well as source. Netflix movies were horrible via my not-so-smart TV. Now with the Firestick, it's a whole new experience with DD+. It's like blue ray now!

When I listen to Spotify, some songs are amazing and others totally suck sound quality-wise. Turning up the 800 does nothing more than make a bad problem worse. Then other songs are like Whoa!

I've noticed the 800 is very linear. No bass bump until you hit the boost switch. Try that and see what you think.
