The audiophile owner of world's best stereo system is at least honest:

Truly interesting; the rigour and the craftsmanship applied to the room is absolutely unparalleled.

That turntable? And the loudspeakers? 8GA silver cables? Incredible!

Oh, the "whys" of the datasheets... The information is there not to be an axiomatic truth, but instead each speck of data must be slowly inhaled while carefully performing a deep search inside oneself to find the true metaphysical sense...

I clicked this thinking it would be a funny hate-watch a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it by the end. Really didn't end up going where I assumed it would have.

That's pretty cool, amazing looking room. There is a lot of idiocy in the audiophile world but a lot of it I look at as art, it's not that different than spending a ton of money building a custom hotrod car, I mean what's the point? It looks cool, it's fun, that's about what it comes down to. I've seen people spend tens of thousands of dollars on paintings or jewelry that doesn't even do anything, at least audio gear is functional, even if the thing that differentiates it from much less expensive gear is mostly cosmetic/artistic craftsmanship. I'm not an audiophile or a hot rodder or an art collector but to each their own.
