I've heard from more than one dealer that James Gandolfini (aka Tony Soprano) owns a lot of high end gear (Hovland, Audio Physic, Wilson).

Richard King, recording engineer at Sony Music, uses Focus Audio monitors... http://www.proaudioreview.com/june04/Focus_Audio.shtml |
For you HK movie fans, the movie "Infernal Affairs" actually has a scene where the two stars are in an audio store...one suggests a pair of cables, and the other comments how much better it sounds. Reportedly, one of the stars (Andy Lau) became a hardcore audiophile after filming this movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338564/ |
I read an interview with Tony Levin (bassist for Peter Gabriel and on Black Light Syndrome) where he discusses the Linn system he has. He mentions that high end audio blew him away the first time he heard it, citing a recording he had made where a truck drove by the room he was recording in, and he didn't know the sound of the truck made it onto the recording until he heard it on a high end system. |
