Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners The Sub Crawl, Test Media Suggestions

Yes, I forgot the fish-tank scene. I've never seen the movie but it's mentioned so often in this context on these forums--the Darla scene?--that I usually mention it.

Thanks,
Alan

Stupid question alert! For the sub crawl should I have the sub facing the front of the room, front for front positioning, facing rear for rear positioning or it doesn't matter?

Doesn't matter, LFE is non directional.....sort of. Some people claim to be able to tell direction of LFE but the lower ranges 80hz and down are pretty much impossible to determine the direction they are eminating from.

Thanks

Haven't people said they can tell where the low bass is coming from because they can tell where the vibrations are coming from via the floor? So it wouldn't be the sound making it directional, but the feel?

I think it is more they know where the sub actually is so their minds already know where the sound/vibrations is/are coming from.

Just had YES playing via Rhapsody and there was some incredible bass during I've Seen all Good People.

I discovered that as well not too long ago when my kids wanted to watch Xmas movies. I was kind of dozing on the couch and then the church scene with the pipe organs brought my EP to life. I was surprised and impressed so I replayed the chapter while my kids rolled their eyes at having to watch the same scene twice!

Also, just watched iRobot last night on BR. Forgot what a fun movie that was and there is some very serious LFE throughout the movie, but the car chase scene with the robot delivery trucks attacking in particular stood out to me.
