D-box?

[Beefbowl]

I just got Broken Arrow in the mail today. On the cover it says D-box motion code equipped. Can anyone tell me what that is?

its a machine you can hook up to a chair that moves the chair around based on inputs from a movie.

d-box is a motor hooked to your dvd/blu-ray player and your chair or couch and when watching the movie it moves your seating to simulate like you are in the movie. check out the info on D-box.com

Kind of like the rumble pack for game controllers except it's for movies. think I'll pass on this one. lol.

It's something that is waaaaaaaay to expensive to even consider.

Blue-tooth?

my friend has a system in a leather couch that has powered recliners in it. they are called butt kickers and they are pretty cool. i watched polar express at his house and it was incredible with those in the couch. although they are expensive they certainly add some pazazz to the movie.

For you maybe...and yes, right now, unfortunately, me too. However, there are plenty of people who can afford a $7000 chair, even more who can afford a $3600 platform for an existing chair, and yes, there are even some who can afford to get the Odysee system ($20k plus).

The important thing to remember is that just because you cant afford it does not mean that NO ONE can!

Truly this is the next level in home theater. You really have to experience it to believe how much of an impact motion makes when watching a movie.

I get motion sick. so I think master and commander with wave motions would be no bueno.

Actually, I could probably spend the money on it if I wanted to, but what I meant was, it's way to expensive for what it actually is.

Is that subjective. Sure. But people complain about prices around here all the time.
