Jaw Dropping Good! A Look Inside One of the Best Audiophile Systems I've Heard

I'm always chasing sonic perfection...scouring the globe for the ultimate audiophile experience. This video features a system that came with rave reviews by others and it certainly didn't disappoint. In fact, on many audiophile metrics, it could be among the best I've heard.

Words can't do justice to this audiophile system and neither will the audio clips (in a video to come). You have to hear it yourself to experience the uncanny realism and dynamics possible. However, this walkthru and report will give you a thorough description of the great gear and synergy created in this room.

It's a perfect example of when expertise is combined with great gear. Props to the owner...as well as people like Rich Brown at HiFi One and JR with WAM Engineering for helping dial this system in so well.

Here is a detailed gear list for those interested.
