    Maybe the recordings are very low quality, but this sinds actually terrible, especially the notes around 850Hz seen super boosted compared to everything else, to the point it almost clips the mic.

    it would have been nice to hear music play on this system... like Beethoven - Piano Concerto No 5 "Emperor" deep purple anthem santana GuaJira or anything from king crimson even dire straits can tell more on a system than what we heard. and 1000's others

    This system is amazing! Am not sure if am referring to the music output, the cosmetic set-up of the different components, or the price. The recording device that recorded this sounds a bit muted. The first 4-minutes plus of talking should have been used to show the system components, not showing them during the listening session, which was distracting... A part of me believes any system that costs north of $5000 (including flagship Bluetooth speakers) sound as good or partially close to this... Amazing treat nevertheless...

    @taylorpilewski Před měsícem

    I'm having a really hard time trying to understand why a channel dedicated to sound and audiophilia thinks it makes any sense to try to convey what a system sounds like played through the viewers phone, TVs and headphones via CZcams's TERRIBLE compressions. This system absolutely has to be listened to in person. Directly in the room by your human ears. Listening any other way is doing it a disservice.

    There’s certainly no doubt whatsoever, Cypriot technology works beautifully, the sound was (to my ears, at least, clear and dynamic). Aesthetically however, Danish Bang & Olufsen it was not. Beauty indeed is in the eye of the beholder, and blindfolded, I would have had a fabulous time in the presence of such monumental audio greatness! Thank you for posting.

  • @floridaredneck
    @floridaredneck Před 2 měsíci

    I appreciate the work that went into the production of this video. My contention with this type of system is not so much it's price tag, but it's application. The human ear can only hear so much, so I'm not sure the extras here are really making a difference from a system, say $995,000 cheaper. While vinyl records are nostalgic, it doesn't make sense to play one on this system, as it would seem to pick up the imperfections of the medium, as friction is involved in playing a record. As for the application, I could see more (yet not entirely) this used for a theatre room of some size, but to have a sofa sitting right in front of a massive system like this, again doesn't make a lot of sense. What does one do? Just sit there? Having a conversation would seem sacrilege while a system like this is playing. I suppose it's difficult for me to imagine myself just sitting and listening to music for any length of time, but apparently the client does, or either he just didn't know what to do with that $ million. Anyone can easily say what they would do alternatively with $1 million, but instead I would say if I wanted to listen to music as it is played, I'd either go to the symphony or concert in person, or hire them to come to my home and play for me live. That would seem to satisfy both the sound situation and save lots of money as well. A side advantage is I would have a massive autograph collection wall to replace that hideous 1970s looking decor in that room. It looks like something "This Old House" would put together in about a day and a half. It's something I would imagine hidden in a projection room and that wall looks like a shingled roof on a wood shack. But, you know what they say about beauty.... Great video, but to play what this system does is a moot point if you don't have a system to replicate it. Those who are just looking/listening on a computer, phone, or TV (like I do) can't possibly tell what this system sounds like, because it only sounds like what our own system is capable of playing for us. So, the sound of this system is only as good as the one you're hearing it on and unfortunately unlike visual art you see with your eyes, you cannot communicate sound with words by describing it.
