Superb sound is the binding agent in films that withstand the test of time. Right from the beginning, you will feel the howling of the wind at sea taking charge. As the movie sinks in deeper, the ship’s engines will test the might of your subwoofer(s) in its ability to recreate highly pressurized frequencies to flood your sweetspot. Musical extension present in the sequences reflects the ship’s opulence. Ambient chatters and light orchestral music in the upper-class deck blend beautifully to accurately recreates the snooty atmosphere right in your living room. Life exuberates from your surround speakers when you are on the third-class deck. The crowd’s merry-making does not bleed onto other channels and you will be able to hear the small details that are present if you have physical speakers surrounding you. This ageless film is a classic example of being immersed with tactfully created sound effects.
