Can’t be all that hi-end, he’s got too much Sony product in there…
Sony sucks!

@ Ed, when you say “too much Sony” do you mean all those two devices he has there…cos Sony, you know, that world renowned hardware manufacturer could probably make a damn sight better projector than a certain software company beginning in M ending in icrosoft
Anyway, I could argue my point but I just fell over all of the speakers in my front room cos I didn’t bother to put them in the walls
Xbox fanboy.
Sure he’d have a 360 in there to replace the PS3, but I imagine he’d want to stream something other than WMVs and WMAs every once in a while.
I wonder what playing MGS4 would be like on that thing.
Interesting that he has his album collection as a border instead of sound deadening, and also he puts his amps in front of his speakers. I guess any sound engineer that can afford a $6m home theater knows what he is doing though…
To the people arguing above, Sony’s high-end stuff is as good as any. The LENSE for that projector costs nearly $20k.
Nice equipment, but doesn’t seem like he paid any mind to proper placement for ideal acoustics or stereo imaging.
Wires? To Snell 1800? Maybe?
I don’t think that’s his album collection. If you look at his list of players, you’ll notice the Pioneer Laserdisc player (and lack of a record player). So, I would guess that we’re looking at a pretty impressive LD collection.
And Gran Turismo must look/sound incredible with that setup!
what a bunch of losers, such a waste of money
Seems excessive for that space, makes me think he’s a fool with too much money who doesn’t know what he’s doing.
yeah thats correct hes a fool with too much money and doesnt know what hes doing. and who are you?? gus…your a tosser
More money than sense. I’ll bet he even uses Monster cables and those ripoff “cable elevator” things, too. LOL. What a tool….
Can someone say overkill?
to u guys slagging it off- if u were there, u would be sucking his big fat cock saying how great it was
Most expensive? Whats the price? My dad’s cousin is the manager for Overture Audio located in northern Delaware (almost landed a job there) - they are one of the United State’s most renowned home theater installers. Often receiving high end studio monitor speakers to audition and review for magazines.
Their systems start at $150,000 and go up to $350,000 for equipment and installation.
My concern with that number of speakers is the interference of all the speakers and the impact that would have on the surround effect. I hope to god they properly acoustically tuned that room!
You’ll notice it’s been ‘tidied up’ for the pics by removing all of the cables. Bet it doesn’t look anything like as pretty with them all in place.
I’ve got those Snell towers too, but I have a 10-foot satellite dish to get REAL television instead of just the crap they send over little dishes… do you??
