    You mean the sub in U-571, Das Boot, The Enemy Below, The Bedford Incident, Run Silent, Run Deep, The Hunt for Red October, Operation Petticoat, or Destination Tokyo?

    hamzahsh - I will be the nice guy I am give ya some love. But your on a computer + search engine + Google. Its easy to find anything on the internet. The average HIGH END hometheater would kill the audio and picture quality of a standard movie theater. Amps are commercial and speakers are made different for the large volume. Not going to find 15 18" high quality subwoofers lineing the theater screen.
    Anyway here a good link:

    Lower her 200 feet and do a ninety degree left turn:D.

    The speakers you hear in theaters are most likely Klipsch or JBL. Go to www.klipsch.com and www.jbl.com and click on commercial audio.
