It's mostly photos, and it must be seen to be believed. [Eek!]

I was inspired by this thread.

I don't know what to say about that...no recent posts so the cat may have chewed on the wrong cable.

It IS Andy Summers. I don't understand the big sound but the small TV. I don't even think the projector/bed sheets can make up to equal the sound.

And he stretched Casablanca to fill that television.

I'm not surprised.

I don't understand the need for all those processors???

And don't you think Casablanca is a good film to show off Dolby Stereo? Unless it's a remix, he just used fake stereo processing, or is just testing out the clarity of his center speaker, no.

I think his need for all those processors is to get just the right sound for each and every movie, because you have to listen to a Dolby Stereo (2.0) movie in Dolby Stereo, not in Dolby Pro-Logic II. I also think, I might be wrong, he has OCD.

I could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure this setup beats the crap out of "home IMAX". Plus this system comes with a monster cat!

My first thought was Andy Summers as well, though I had to think for a while to remember his name.

I kind of feel sorry for guitarist Andy Summers of The Police having the same name as this guy.

There's lots of equipment, but the viewing environment sucks. I wouldn't want to spend more than 5 minutes in there, much less the duration of a 2 hour movie.
