D box seats - Blu-ray Forum

detective392 · 12-29-2009, 07:31 PM

Does anyone know how these actually work? Also are they good or do you hardly feel anything I found out a few of my movies actually take D box and was wondering if it would be a good choice to get one when I set my home theater up when I get a new place.

Have you ever been to one of those amusement rides, where you watch a roller coaster ride on-screen and your seat moves along with the coaster? D-Box is like that. Your seat moves along with the action of the movie. It's much more in-depth than a Buttkicker.

Good luck getting a set for your home theater. I know some theaters in various states now offer D-Box motion control. The closest one to me is in Arizona. Try searching on D-Box's website and if one is close to you, it'd be worth it to check it out.

I know they're EXPENSIVE as all heck, but I've never tried them or not to say if they are worthwhile are not.

Ok was hoping they would go down in price by the time I get a plae of my own and get a HT going.

As far as I have heard they are nice. I heard somewhere that Brain Sturgeon was looking at them, and if he is looking at them, that must mean there is something there. Just some food for thought.
