Harry Potter Order of Phoenix.

Specifically the battle at the end between the Order and Death Eaters and especially the showdown between Voldemort and Dumbledore, and also Harry’s struggle after being possessed by Voldemort.

Love to listen to all that on surround.

I always thought Baby Driver would sound amazing in surround sound. Great use of music, powerful cars, great gun fights, etc.

What a great freaking post. Seriously. Black hawk down! Totally forgot about that one and fifth Element. The diva sounds amazing on a good system!

Sounds great. Awful movie with absolutely no concept of space, but it sounds great.

A surprising older movie...Silverado. They whining of the bullets as they pass by is amazing for a 35 year old film.

U-571 is another awesome surround sound movie.


The bean drum scene in House of the Flying Daggers is pretty amazing with a high quality surround sound system.

Dunkirk on my Dolby Atmos setup is insane. The bombs sound like they are raining down all around you and you can even hear them exploding in the air around you. Atmos is worth the extra $.

I am embarrassed to say as a mid 30s guy I’ve never actually seen Top Gun.

I did watch the beginning of Saving Private Ryan. I find this sound bar sounds higher pitched than my previous wired box system, but I like it.

Another good one is the Transformers one where that huge snake like Transformer takes the giant building down.
