To get everything I think you need a sound system that can reproduce the lowest sounds. I've heard the base gets so low you can only feel it. Not sure if that's true as I can't find what I had read about it.

It's for true(ish) and not even that expensive. Plenty of subwoofers will produce frequencies around 20Hz, which is typically regarded as the lowest humans hear.

Master and Commander sounds amazing on a great system, but honestly, it's so well done that it sounds pretty smashing even on a basic 5.1.
The sound designers really knocked it out of the park.

Interesting. I'll start looking into it. I'm not really a cine- or aurio-phile, but my TVs are ten years old so it might be upgrade time.
