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.
At least he likes music!!

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.

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.

so what is in his car, and what does his surround sound system for his tv look like?
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
