I ran across this today. Quite the home theater filled with more MacIntosh

(nice) gear in one theater than most cities have throughout their entire city!

He really should have sought professional help, he obviously needed it.

I hate systems like this. Un engineered and really just spend all you can at a tweeter type store instead of a custom installer type shop with a real integrator. money wasted all over. Mac stuff is nice but not for large theaters and multi room.

 

[Peter Nielsen]

This is not even a HT. It's a "TV room"

Why would you need 3 SACD players and 6 preamps? May be this is a fault tolerant system with a hot backup site.

I am pretty sure that is "Masterlu" from AudioAficionado.org. And I think some of you should be a little more careful before jumping the gun when accusing someone of not knowing what they are doing. Ivan has a plan has stuck by it.

I don't know if he is the same guy and has a plan, but anyone investing money on Bybee technology raises many questions about his understanding of the science of audio and video...not to mention some of the other purchases and choices made

Raul, I don't know anything about "Bybee technology" but judging by your post it must be snake oil. I just get a bit pissed off when the "He has more money than sense" line is pulled out. Everyone thinks they can put together a better system than the next guy. I just feel it is jealously coming into play.

 

[virusc]

look at his room, terrible. What is their to debate?

I guess the jealousy angle never occurred to me. I just feel some people know the difference between spending money and wasting money.

A subjective opinion based on objective thought?

 

[Bulldogger]

Well Masterlu once said that he likes Steve Bruzonky on this site but otherwise does not post here. True statement. No he really did not start off knowing much about audio. All you have to do is look at the room and set-up to realize that. However, I think hands on experience with so many of the brands he sells has greatly increased his knowledge.

I'm not jealous. I think he could have done a lot more with the money he spent. I also think the allocation of resources is too heavily slanted toward electronics and devices of dubious merit, and under weighted in acoustics, video, decor, and interior design.

He has a passion and the means to support it, good for him.

 

[ambesolman]

Still a pretty nice entertainment center...

 

[J.Mike Ferrara]

Nothing to see here, now move along

 

[jmichaelf]

The real surprise is that it cost a million dollars. Disposable income indeed.

I wonder if he got started with Bybee filters back more than ten years ago when I did a group Bybee filter purchase as Moderator of the AVS Tweaks forum?


I am no longer the tweakaholic I once was (probably tweak more than most but much less than then)!


He sure didn't get the idea for Richard Gray from me. I have my reasons and I never recommend RG products to [email protected]@@


Watch. Anytime now RG's PR firm will contact AVS and threaten them if they don't delete this [email protected]@@

 

[donaldk]

Surprinsingly he went with an antique underpowered Sony, when he could have gone with a state of the art 30K Lumens beast...


Well look at the article date, and more importantly the completion date 2008 and 2003, ahum. Guess time for an update on the man's first and second theater.
