    Need ideas for the best software/games/dvds/music to show off a really good surround soud system. Building a little room off our computer shop and just putting in a savage PC with neons etc with an audigy platinum pro and 7.1 surround sound system where people can get a good demo off the sound systems available. Room will be small and darkly lit so it will look class.

    What I want is some demo software thats great for showing off surround sound, names of a few good DVDs that have scenes with cool surround sound effects or games that would make the most of a surround sound system!

    Ideas please people! Want plenty of info on what you people would do with a PC to make it look the business with neons and stuff! Was looking a getting a Antec Lanboy, adding a few uv/led fans and internal neons and a nice 19" Flatscreen or something.

    Show off any movie it should do, but more importantly is the noise of the actual system let's face it no-one will be impressed by the surround sound system if they can hear in the background the fans roaring away.......:D. For games try out some HL2 demos or Deus Ex 2 demos, it should please any gamer.

    Check out the Pod Racer scene in StarWars Episode-1... sounds great in 5.1
    UT2003 has really nice surround aswell.

    Any fight scene from The Matrix Reloaded will blow them away.
