It's worth reading some of the viewer comments at the bottom...

Yessiree, the spirit of capitalism at work.

Speaking of which, Don, my PG&E bill was 200 bucks last month  Shocked (which really p*ssed me off, by the way).

Doesn't look like he believes much in the point source idea (no, I guess not). The whole thing stinks of a pa system based on line arrays and subs. Probably does well with rock concert video's, if that's what u'r into.

I wonder if he uses NOS Gold Lion KT-88's in the Mac's? That alone would break many budgets.

With all those amps around you, you'd cook like gyro.  

It seems more like a show exhibit than a system that was intended to be used.  Yeah, it probably works, but does the owner run it for hours every day the way most of us play our systems?

I think not.  That was built for bragging rights, not for playing movies or music.

Notice that the speakers aren't even wired up.  None of it is.

One of the comments at the site of origin said the coolest thing in the room is the model of Captain Nemo's Nautilus on the coffee table. I AGREE! I tried to draw that submarine 20 different ways from memory after seeing 20K Leagues Under the Sea (Disney version of course). That model is COOOOOOL!
