Blows the door off

Well, over the holiday I got to enjoy the system watching a few movies. And man, is this one clean yet powerful system.

So powerful that when watching the recent action movie ‘Hanna’ the door to the HT got ‘blown’ open twice during big bass scenes.
That was startling, as the scene itself was intense, and then all the sudden the Theater door pops open!

I tell you, Infinite Baffle Sub generates enough air pressure changes and move the walls enough to make (and admittedly poorly-adjusted) door shake enough to pop out of its latch.

So ‘blow the doors off’ can really happen in a home theater


Has this (or other motion related issue) happened to you?

What day were you watching that? I felt a sonic boom at my place in Tampa Sat night <g>. :ROFL:</g>

I've had pants legs flap from my SVS Ultra 13....but never blown anything open...

Jon it started a sink hole in my back yard

Sorry for the shaking guys, we'll keep it down today (yeah, that's gonna happen :devil

You both have had the 'experience', so you know how hard keeping it down will be ;-)

JonFo,

I'm glad you like your system.

I think we all get it.

PS: Happy New Year.

Jonathan has an awesome system. Except for that three-eyed monstrosity hogging the sweet spot.

Happy New Year, Jon.

Sweet. I wish I could go IB. My subs can shake my couch and eyes enough to slightly blur my vision when I play "The Vikings" off of Pomp & Pipes http://www.amazon.com/Pomp-Pipes-Dallas-Wind-Symphony/dp/B00000159M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1324963001&sr=8-1. I can't imagine it with an IB setup..

took a picture off the wall in the room above the HT once ...

does that count?

If it makes you crap your pants does that count as motion?

Well one is from sound pressure and the other from vibration. With an open room home theater, I would have to pressurize the house. As for shake the foundation, my wife's wedding gown portrait still leans against the wall where it fell as a reminder to be careful. If her glass display cases break, I'm toast.

Luther, have you considered taking insurance in case your wife's display cases break? Pay her a monthly fee as insurance
