Excited to se my system in this one. Thanks for including me, Steve.
Hey Steve, IMO you should do this kind of show on a regular basis....maybe once every couple of weeks on a designated day (if you have enough quality photos and set-ups to showcase). Really enjoyed this. Thanks!
I've done quite a few, check the playlists
Great episode, love all you hifi freaks out there!
can you imagine to hear all those rooms in axpona?😅 this could have be the proper show! thank you steve.
Thanks Steve, those systems look great. Yeh, my system says about me… that I don’t have enough money! …. At least for what I am wanting 😂
Some of those systems look like they are out of a Stanley Kubrick film, Steve. 😄
Niccceeee
Come and play with us, Danny

It's always a blast to see these viewer systems, Steve. You're right. They never get old! Thanks, as always, Steve!!!
Wow ... 'they never get old!' I was thinking that Steve and Herb are you know ... in that 'departure lounge' that isn't any airport place and ... Steve's decline of late compared to older videos, needs something but I don't know just what. He even has a past tense video note, suggesting he's already absented himself.
A quadraphonic reel to reel system through Magnepans is the coolest thing I've seen in a while.
Thank you for posting my setup (the first one at 1:15)!
Love this segment on systems! Thank you
Thanks for compiling these Steve. Its cool to see all the combinations and unique expression of gear choice and system setup.
So many systems with a Bluesound Node in them! That says something.
Very cool, love this series!
Honestly - these viewer rigs are the best!
Thanks, I'm going to be doing an all viewer system day in a few weeks. If you'd like to participate send JPEG's to me at audiophiliac@mail.com
This was a nice video. I could watch multiple viewer systems twice a month.
2:10 - Minneapolis citizen using mac instead of Audio Research? Isn't that illegal or something?
So fun to see these amazing systems! Love your channel!❤
WOW!!! there are a whole lot of great viewer systems!!!! I'm jealous of some but in the same breath, fortunately not (hard to explain), which is a good/ happy place for me to be.
These are great! Thanks Steve!
Cool to see Schiit well represented.
Shit. I gotta send my system in. This is so fun. ❤
I love how viewers use platform stands for their components. They understand the detriment of sound that vibrations cause.
Love seeing what others can do, especially when you have a bit of room (something I'm lacking) to let that HiFi gear really shine. What did impress me was the number of people that have the Audiolab 6000CDT, this modest bit of kit could well be the HiFi bargain of the decade, so much for so little.
Marvelous Kit!!
Big ups GR research!
Love these shows.
Loads of awesome gear here!
Unfortunately, some will never shine as they possibly could because of poor placement and lack of room treatment. I know the photo does not show the entire room, but I counted a mere THREE systems that were in rooms with any type of visible treatment.
Hey Steve I think it might be an idea if you haven't done it already Have Audiophiles send in pics of their system in different price brackets Say $10$ $30 $50.....sky is the limit 😊
All very nice and clean! I'm in the throws of whittling down to two systems. However, I can't have them both in my lounge as I have a big fireplace, so a logistical/space problem. Mainly high-end UK stuff, but will post when I get the rat's nest sorted out! Hopefully it will make it on the list someday. 🙂
I enjoyed this video. Thanks!
Interesting how many people can tell how these systems sound based on pictures. Wide angle tends to distort, many people like to pull speakers out to listen then put them back after. I spent time and money carefully putting crap behind my Magnepans only to find that it stole all the Maggie magic. For sure you should play around, experiment, but for gods sake, just have fun and tune out the audiophile snobbery. 13:09
Awesome systems!
Very nice systems!
Awesome display of fine equipment!!!
Steve, since you have so many submissions, how about a few vids splitting them up into "like" groups or even manufacturing groups-- ie: all Klipcsh or all Magnepan, or Reel to Reel systems, etc.
Sir thank you for your service great system.
Awesome Steve.
Thanks so much 👍🏻
I’d say we’re all audiophile voyeurs…. Some very cool systems 🔊😊🎶
Lotta technics!
We love them as well!!
Nice, enjoyable.
This is a fantastic sytem
I got to go with Jennifer’s and Doug’s system. Wow
Hey Steve consider doing a review on the "Duevel Planets Loudspeakers" They look well funky....
Amazing for the price and a magic sound floating in the air.
Tell us the story about the dirty wrinkled sheet. My favorite.
so well done Steve! BUT... everyone must know, that for every beautiful system that makes the Big Show,
there are systems like mine, in rooms so MESSY that there's no way they'll be documented for show! : )
also, i know you don't have time, but it would be really cool to dedicate an Instagram Feed that showed all
the submissions with condensed notes or something :)
11:46 those speakers look amazing
Lots of incredible systems but a severe shortage of room treatment and proper positioning.
Just what i needed :D
No i did not! Please take your scam elsewhere @Click-Here-To-Massage-__
Some nice gear!❤🎶
Thank you... My speakers are Wilson Sophia 1s.
Do you leave your speakers in the position shown in the video whenever you play music? 3:27
I do and I know you mean so close to the wall but they still sound wonderful and not a problem for me.@@67Pepper
There is GOING wild (don't we all sometimes?) and there is BEING wild... Still wander which is YOUR system to fidelity on High philiac Steve?...Shema!!!.
Great episode!
Some interesting gear here and there. A real dearth of large woofer-wide baffle speakers (Altecs, Klipsch, JBL, Tannoy, etc ) and little in the way of streaming options . Not much dual use 2 channel/home theater either.
It's always interesting to see how many pieces of Schitt Audio gear and Node streamers are used by so many?
Two la scalas and two 4000? Good lord
Next time you have a week off just post one of these each day!
The only equipment I have is the rega p6 turntable. Shows how much stereo equipment there is.
Always a Fan.... :) - Peace Brother! - m.
Some cool systems for sure. Couple of observations… plenty of very expensive systems with Technics SL1200 turntables. A really good TT but it brings to mind the old Linn theory that the source signal can’t be improved by what follows. Just my thoughts 😎
The current Technics SL 1200 is a great turntable
I also didn't expect to see Technics turntables feature so prominently in high end systems. With that said, I think they have moved upwards from the marketspace they used to occupy.
@@EMP698 I know they’re a good TT, I’ve got one of my own and it sounds good when used in my main system, but it’s no match for my Linn LP12 and is clearly the weakest link in those high end systems in the video
@@TheDjcarlos67 they should consider Technics SP 1000R if they want to pay that kind of money
@@EMP698 yeah man… £25k in the UK!!!!
Oh, I guess I missed this DIY systems, everyone has very nice setups, Steve. Can I still submit pictures of my DIY system? Thanks.
Audiophiliac@mail.com
Steve, I have a question about your system. That shelf that you keep your records on - my question is what are you using to keep the records from falling through the spaces? Do you have a wood board or something to hold them up? It looks like a neat idea.
I have thick vinyl lining on the shelves.
Always fun to see this however I'm often amazed at how poorly some of these systems are set up !
Speakers backed into corners and up against walls or 4-5 feet apart (yikes).
Same for equipment and especially turntables right next to speakers or in a corner.
For sure they are going to get huge amount of vibration and feedback etc.
I for one would not put any equipment within 6 feet of the speakers or areas where there is a high pressure/bass peak or boom !
Wonder who makes some of the nice Vinyl racks/shelf's at 7:25 and 13:20 ?
Cool stuff however...
The rack is an IKEA kallax with the kallax base. I also put some 1/8” hardboard on the back of it to keep the records from going out the back, but only attached it at the top of each shelf to allow for cables to go out the back. As for my turntable being where it is, I have it on Isoacoustics Orea isolation pucks which do a fantastic job of isolating it and get virtually no vibration or feedback. As for those thinking room treatment is a must, and you can’t get amazing sound without it, first I ask, do you have a spouse? LOL! Also, my setup is almost a near-field set up, so the room isn’t as big a factor as it would be otherwise. Also, I’ve heard that putting treatment behind Maggie’s steals the magic of their design. From what I understand, they need to be out away from the wall, but they also rely on the wall to create that sound. I’m grateful to have a spouse that lets me have what I have. It sounds amazing to me, and all the tweaks I have put into it have made positive impacts to the sound. I also thank the Audiophiliac for all of his help and guidance along the way through his terrific content!
Thanks for the info. Funny I found those IKEA products myself the other day (very high bang for your buck stuff).
Your system was not one I was commenting on for the equipment location.
At least you have the speakers out away from things and had the forethought to add some isolation.
I saw one of these where the turntable (an SL1200 which does not have good isolation) was right next to the speaker !
So no amp on the Rega, Schiit and KEf LS-50 system?
No thanks and answer the question!@Click-Here-To-Massage-__
Audiophiles Need INTERIOR DECORAT- ORS! That's the main thing I got out of this. Only about a handful or so of rooms that looked appealing visually. All that sleek equipment aesthtically hampering instead of impressing. So many systems with such large amounts of money poured into them, with speaker cables laying on the floor, speakers close to wall or not spaced far enough apart for real stereo. Yikes! It was nice seeing all those systems though. Very interesting.
Typo on spelling on decoraters; or was it?
it's nice to see people voting with their wallet, it really cuts some of the tiresome hot air some other reviews will churn out to keep their name prominent, even if they occasionally mislead.
I am a guy with a great thirst for maximizing my audio purchase, and my enthusiasm sometimes exceeds my understandings, because I don't follow the audio news, and rarely attend an audio show. so I tend to get all lathered up by a review of the latest greatest stuff. Only to find out in time , that it was just the latest stuff, and somewhat pedestrian. Or, in the worst instances, complete snake oil , like the infamous "magic rocks" of old. (with those, my understanding easy and instant. .)
really, I was once In an audio salesroom that had what looked like small trail marking cairns of those ( mappingo?) magic rocks. A quick calculation as I glanced around the room was in the thousands of dollars. I think a post hypnotic suggestion would have been cheaper. I don't see how anyone could honestly sell them with a straight face. They look just like the back decorative river rocks from a builders supply, with a very light polish
The Klipsch speakers have a thick pad under them. Do you know what the material is ?
Did I win the Mystery Pads for Klipsch La Scalas ?
FIRST!
And once again so much expensive equipment, but so little room acoustic concepts / treatment and awful placement. Ironic to talk about High End or Audiophile
👌
These videos make me feel like an inadequate noob. I have a boring Luxman LV-111 integrated amplifier, an Akai AP-207 turntable, and some B&W tower speakers. Sounds fine to me. This channel exudes a bit of snobbery. Lol...
Don’t think like that. Your system sounds great. And og you like it… no problem them
Hey man, no way, I'm the same, I have entry level gear and it sounds great to me! The worse thing you can do is compare yourself! Enjoy the music!
Hey man! We're all into this hobby of music and equipment with each other. Budgets, musical tastes, and equipment matching are infinite! Let's enjoy the music, and our equipment and each other my audiophile brotheren and sisters.😁
@@RICHIE87622 But do you need to be? The guy with the all Rega system haven’t used a fraction of some other people here. He looks perfectly happy to me 👍
dont care about that. spend your money in future into room acoustics and your system sounds better than any untreated living room setups you see in this video(s)
If I could ask one thing is that the audiophiliac change the opening "music" it is so shrill, and un-audiophiliac sound one can imagine. it is the one thing I feel entitled to complain about. Now back to your regularly scheduled program.
PLEASE, LET THESE GUYS KNOW THAT BY REMOVING ANY AND ALL STRING INSTIMENTS, THEIR SOUND WILL IMPROVE VERY MUCH, TRY IT....
LOL that's quite true
Bakersfield not Baskersfield
System 2 cant sound good in that room with that hard floor.. get rid of it (the floor), cover it! And that window and thin thin curtains!
System 3. That flat practically naked wall behind speakers and system is hideous from a sound point of view. Im not even gonna go into the instruments playing along passively.
System 4. Good heavens. Looks like over at Fremers.
(System 6. I want that rack. It is gorgeous!
System 7. 27 yold and never read a boook? No shelves, no acoustic treatment, just the bare room. But the loudspeaker size matches the room size it seems.
Room 8. If he gets a third system and cramps it into the room with the other two systems it might count as acoustically treated.
System 10. Exellent to see that he has thick velvet curtains that he can cover the windows with when he plays music, soft furniture and lots of diffraction. If the celing is high he can try and tell the landlord to lower it because the slap back echo is disturbing.
System 11. Turntable should be moved out to one of the side walls. Biggest and best improvement would be to drill a hole for the cable and have it in an entirely different room and have the wife switch sides so not a second of the playback is missed.And room treatment!
System 13. Exellent. If the celing is concrete or a hard surface it can be vastly upon by having a fabric tension celing perhaps a chalked one put in. But generally exellent! If he knows what he is doung with the diy i bet it sounds fantastic.
System 14. Hard floor, get rid of it or cover it.
The rest is just such a shitshow and and i don't have the strength for it.
And where are the braided cables? Not a single shakti stone. Not a helmholtz resonator or Peter Belt tweak in sight. Shocking. Audiophilia down the drain!
As usual 98% of systems have spent 100% of their $ on gear and 0% on the room
exactly. Sad story, buying gear is perhaps more satisfying than spend money into an Acoustican / Room concept
you all must be rich. I can't even pay my rent with 3 jobs
I feel your pain
If you can spent thousants of dollars to buy these stuff, and then you set them in small and acoustically mistreated rooms then you are not an audiophile. You are a gadgeteer/technophile so go sent your pictures elsewhere!! 😆😆😜😜🧡💛
Who cares? Anybody with money to burn can have the same thing.
@@BishopFrost-il9gl Just stating a fact. Feelings have nothing to do with it.
LOl at those names of amps and overpriced bullcrap while you can have all the same sounf with vintage amps. There is a sucker born every minute out there.
Pioneer CT-F1000 not 100. I owned one and sold it.
