Sin City , sinfully delicious sound


Just finished the brilliant , outrageous Sin City and was blown away by the soundfield . From the opening note to the final credit , this sonic blockbuster does its best to keep pace with arguably the most artistic movie in a decade . The DTS version explodes with such prodigious bass that you better be careful , it will take your subs to depths most movies only dream about. Not as cohesive front to back as say Dark City , it still however manages a solid and palpable field that dips you deep into the underworld of a fantasy world that can certainly be described as audacious and bold yet balances all of the unique elements in a way that never detracts from the pacing . A must own DVD , it also boasts a fantastic visual experience second to none with a grain free visual palate that will make you think Blue Ray has already arrived. Love it or hate it , you gotta respect it.

Wow for $7500, I hope it's a good woofer. My experience is that I'd rather do something like 4 or more Paradigm Servo 15's or M&K MX200's and such, which gives me more placement flexibility, driver reinforcement and efficiency, speed, and lack of distortion.
It's all good though. If you do have to use one sub, having a Parametric on board is handy, if necessary.
I used to sell the Wilson $10k sub. Don't think I could ever pay so much for a single sub...ouch!
