I am looking for Dolby Digital flciks. I already know DTS movies sound 150% better, but for DD, which movies sound REALLY good?

for pure sound, you can't go wrong with Star Wars flicks...whenever I need to tweak my system, I always use those to judge sound quality.

I always test my setting by playing the Death Star explosion from A New Hope.

I like to tinker around with the various scores, laser blasts and lightsaber hums and clash effects...perfect scene for tweaking your system is the Jinn/Kenobi vs. Darth Maul scene with "Duel Of The Fates" blasting in the background...come to think of it, "Battle Of The Heroes" and the Anakin/Obi-Wan duel may be better, I'll have to try that.

Hmm, I didn't even think of that.

 

Thanks.

 

I can't blast it because my Landlord doesn't like loud shit (I live right above her) so I'll have to wait until she leaves for tomorrow.

Batman Begins

The Incredibles

Saving Private Ryan

Star Wars prequels (especially Jango Fett unleashing the seismic charges in AOTC)

 

If you have DTS:

Gladiator - Signature Selection

Master and Commander

Terminator 2 - Ultimate Edition

X2: X-Men United

I know my system has DTS because it says so in the manual, but I am not sure how to turn it on or whatever. Unless when you insert a DVD with DTS, it turns on automatically.

Master and Commander

 

I kid you not this film is the standard for soundsystems

 

Also, any Harry Potter films, the Quidditch scenes are fun for surround

If you have a DTS system, it just means that the system is capable of playing a DTS track. There isn't a way to just "turn on" DTS without a DVD, because a DTS track is on the DVD itself.

 

Most DTS-capable systems automatically detect it and turn it on. If you have a DVD with DTS and for whatever reason, your system doesn't detect it, you can turn it on manually. Just go to main menu of the DVD, go into Languages/Sound/Setup, and select the DTS track.
