Title says it all. Keep in mind that I listen to bass music to (funk, soul, reggae, house, hip hop). I have quite a bit of music on my ipod, but not all the tunes are cd quality (downloads). Does it make a difference?

I remember someone stating in one previous threads that the fishbowl scene in Finding Nemo (initiation??) was a good way to experience what the 800 can do, but what about for the crawl? and I'd like to use something that I won't have to stop and rewind every two mins.

Just put some of your music with heavy bass on and listen, the bass will sound different as you crawl through the room. Find the spot where the bass sounds the nicest to you and that's where you shou7ld place the subwoofer.

Check out the video

I don't have suggestions for music or movies, but you can set pretty much any player to "repeat between points A & B", and I would think you would actually be better off with the exact same 10 seconds looping over and over for consistency.

Though it will likely drive you nuts! smile
