Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater A test question...

there are two scenes in particular that totally impress me from the shoot-out chapter.

the first one happens early in that chapter. its when costner first walks up to the guys on the street, plugs the one in the head, then opens up on all of them.. there is one part, where the camera is on a close up of him, and he empties out his revolver, and i swear, you can hear each tiny click of the firing mechanism on the gun. and you can hear a destinctive 'hammer drop' as each bullet is fired.. the clarity is amazing..

the second part, is the sheer force of the shotgun blast(they call it a scatter gun}, later in the same scene.. you can literally feel the force of the blast against your body(with a good sub i mean).

those two scenes, and the thunderstorm scene, have made this my favorite demo dvd when friends come hear my system. i would definitely give it 'two thumbs up'( and more if i had 'em)

I'm not sure how much of that will come through in a 2.1 channel test, bigjohn. Unfortunately craigsub is testing only the mains (but using package pricing to determine cost?).

Craig,

I think you would like Ray Montford's "Shed Your Skin" and Diana Krall's latest "Girl in the Other Room"

Criag's on an overnight business trip to Canada, and won't be back until tomorrow night. Don't let that stop you from posting your suggestions and ideas, though.

Curtis. I second the Diana Krall.

Yeah Jack....I saw that it received some nice reviews, so I bought it. When I played it...I was extremely happy.

It is also interesting that she is married to Elvis Costello.

I think he even writes some of her songs.

I bet even if I wrote a song, she could make it sound good.

Hell, she could even make 4'33" sound good...
