Gigantic Home Theater

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

$6 Million Entertainment System

— February 10, 2008 — Tech
Sometimes your friends will buy huge, ugly electronics, and when asked how you like it, all you can say is, "It sure is big!"

Check out this massive home theater system, it sure is big with its 18-by-10-foot screen. It cost $6,000,000. I guess if I spent that much I would want you to be able to see every single speaker and cable that went into that cost. Did I mention how big it is?

Implications - This ultra-luxurious home entertainment system comes equipped with ultra-high resolution picture from the newest Sony digital projector, a state of the art 8.8 channel audio system fed by a balance of audiophile solid-state and vacuum-tube amplifiers. Not to mention the sixteen 18-inch subwoofers, which ensure your home movie-watching experience is just like the theatres.
