    Your best home theater sound bite moment?

    I'm talking about that few seconds of an audio moment that just made you said WTF! So don't include stuff like the Normandy landing in Saving Private Ryan because that's too long, more like a little snippet that blew you away.

    I've got 2, The burial scene in Kill Bill 2. Felt like checking my hair for dirt after that one.

    In Primevel, the movie pretty much sucked but there was a scene where the crocodile was chasing some guy and you could hear the effect of the crocodile running behind you then all of a sudden it jumps onto the screen from behind the camera view and it sounded like it was jumping over my head, I actually covered my head because it took me by suprise. I still had the urge to do it when I was replaying the scene. The movie is worth renting just for that scene if you got a good home theater.

      There's this one part in Transformers when Ironhide is transforming in slow motion, and he does a flip thing by shooting on the ground to launch himself upward. In this slow motion sequence, I get the best bit of LFE's that my surround system can handle. Combined with the rockets going towards him in the sequence, it was one of the coolest things I have ever heard out of it!

        Final cutscenes of Mass Effect...apparently I must have had my subwoofer up too high, because during the credits the deaf girl that lives above me came down to ask me to be quiet since she had to get up early the next morning.

            When you're deaf, you can still hear (feel) low frequency effects. It vibrates your drums or whatever the hell it does.

                The scene where Jango Fett drops those seismic charges on Obi Wan in Star Wars Episode II. Wooomp!

                  Beginning scene of Gladiators.

                  Also, the depth charge scene in U571. Terrific if you have a good sub.

                      Yeah...I felt kinda bad, but the end of ME was just awesome and I'd played a long time getting to it, so I didn't realize how loud I'd turned things up
