Default Just got my first sound system, please advise on DVDs to show itoff!


Just a starter Yamaha receiver and speaker system, 5.1, DD, DTS, etc.
So far it sounds nice, I can't wait until DVE arrives in the mail so I
can calibrate it. In the meantime, have a look at my sig link and tell
me which DVDs of mine are best for showing off what a 5.1 system can do.

From your list:

Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III (T-Rex vs Spino) have some good demo
scenes. Also the DTS track on Monsters Inc. has some really nice subwoofer
usage.

THe helicopter flyover is pretty cool too with the sound moving from the
back of your room to the front. It's quick, but cool.
