You want audio? This is pretty flippin' crazy!

Recommended Posts

From what I can tell, this guy has the DartZeel Pre and power amps ($20,000 each), Pass Labs X1 or x0.5 preamp (about $15,000), 4 of the compression drivers on the sub-horn (I've seen similsr drivers at $8-10,000 each), Some crazy ass tube amps for the upper midrange (If I had to guess..... $40,000 each), a Zanden CD transport and DAC (that's another $40,000), and more crazy ass tube amps for the lower midrange (let's say $20,000), a PS Audio conditioner ($5,000 or so), it looks like an SME 30/10 turntable ($40,000 with a no doubt expensive cartridge), and maybe another $10,000+ in wires.

That's close to $300,000 in stuff. Then have the horns custom molded for his yard, and the high/midrange horns at another $100,000+ easily...... yeah. That's a crap load of cash for 5-way horn speakers. :goyou:

With my luck I would go through the $100k and renovating the house for the audio system, and then afterwards decide I liked my $200 Magnepans better. :P

Probably nothing too special for either, I'd bet.

Car audio is looked down upon by a fair number of audiophiles...and with a system like that, I wouldn't even bother with TV :)
