zak138 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Maybe this guy should go see live music rather than spending a million dollars trying to reproduce the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante3000 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Maybe this guy should go see live music rather than spending a million dollars trying to reproduce the experience. Dude, the guys collection is 50% jazz. You ever seen jazz live? Shit is unbearable. It's like two monkeys pulling a Chinese finger trap on a clarinet. Horrid.

Horrid. this coming from someone with dillinger escape plan on their tradelist. (dont get me wrong, i love DEP and lots of stuff like that, but im pretty sure there are a LOT more people in the world that would say the same thing about the entirety of your collection) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salparadise Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 david - see i never could see spending that much on a perfect audio system, because the majority of stuff we listen to was recorded on a $50 budget or in someones garage.just my two cents. and you would be amazed at how good that can sound reproduce on a pro system. exactly. i even notice a huge quality difference from a 100 dollar sony turntable into a 150 dollar philips home stereo shelf system to my rega through a marantz through b&ws. eric just doesn't like music.

salparadise Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Does he have little things so that the cables don't touch the ground or something? yes. and i believe the cable he is using is about $250/ft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if someone spent a million dollars on all the copies of Reinventing Axl Rose I'd call them dumb too. most definitely. but ill bet that million dollars he spent on the audio room probably represents the same percentage of his funds, as a lot people who have a bands entire collection.

perk900 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Looking over the room and the gear he has it looks like the equipment (not mentioning the acoustic treatment) its probably about $500,000... The turntable is about $74,000 (without the cartridge) The Speakers are probably in the $50,000+ range The Speaker Cables are about $30,000 for the pair He probably spent about $50,000 on interconnects. I mean each power chord has its own conditioner. Those little things that stop the cables from touching the ground (to stop the cables from feeling the effects of the grounding effects of the planet) are about $250 for a dozen Its a steal... But then again, you'd shit yourself if you listened to a record in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eroc Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I love that guys shelves/storage. I am pretty stoked to be able to finally create my own music room come June when I get a place with a second bedroom. Even if it's 1/1000th of the cost of that one. I completely agree. I'm going to hopefully do that too. I have 2 empty bedrooms in the house I rent so once it warms up, since i'm too poor to heat the whole place all cold ass winter, I'm going to see if I can't make a music room.

ronniethebear Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 If you listened to a lot of the records you guys seem to enjoy in that room, you'd realize how shitty the recordings/masterings are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
