Sting: Ten Summoner's Tales (DTS) | Location: | St. Augustine In Hell |
Features: | Moving voice between speakers | Description: | While not a movie, this disc has some great effects with discrete channels. In St. Augustine In Hell, a voice detailing all the kinds of people in hell moves from speaker to speaker in a seemingly random manner. Throw in the more subtle surround effects elesewhere in the disc and you've got a very effective demo of DTS. | |

Strange Days | Location: | Chapter 1 |
Features: | Surround Separation | Description: | The film starts with a different voice from every speaker. A great way to check if you've got channel bleed as well as a great demo scene for someone who hasn't experienced Dolby Digital. | |
