Can anyone list some movies that have strict compliance to movie recording levels especially the LFE part? Some movies, e.g. Taken-1 has exeggerated LFE and I don't think it conforms to the loudness standards. The gunshots, though, sound great but are unreal. One more thing.....0dBFS means 105dB SPL on the speakers, but what about the same for LFE, which is already 10dB hotter?? Going by the book, the processor should clip any signal that's greater than 105dB SPL. If so, how does clipping kick in??? I am asking this coz um using BFD to tame the sub response and I am not too sure how it handles LFE that is already 10dB (115dB) hot when mains are playing at peak reference level (105dB)? Does BFD adjust itself for the bass frequencies and let the signal go unclipped till 115dB SPL or (120dB SPL including the redirected summed up bass from all the channels)?? I hope I've clearly stated what I need to clarify. Any thoughts on this??
