Celebrity Audiophiles? Do you guys know of any?


Celebrity Audiophiles? Do you guys know of any?
People and their systems? I was always curious.

I only know of one - "Fabio" with his elaborate system shown long ago with some Transparent adds in a magazine.

Any others that you know off?

Hi,
When I worked in LA in the late 70's I went to Santa Barbara to hear the Model2's at Harold Beveridges house--he told me they had just made a pair
in Mirrored Glass panels (!) for Julie Andrews.
Christopher Hansen had some Celeb clients around that time I recall also.

Glory days

Hi Des -
It's true about the mirrored pair. Go figure :)

See you at CES? Mail me.

Who is Fabio?

Use to be a popular "Macho" model..... but he had some serious gear for sure,custom Krell's amps made specially by Dan the Man himself. Up to 1000 watts of class "A" power and much much more.

I remember that article about Fabio. It had pictures, too. I got the impression he subjects all his dates to his system (been there, done that). He was swapping out some cables for a couple of girls in the article. Huge Martin Logans! Don't think they were even available for consumers at the time. Tons of wattage. He's serious about our hobby alright.

I wouldn't be surprised if Clint Eastwood has some serious gear. He is an avid jazz fan and has been all of his adult life. Cheers.
Clint is indeed serious about his music. I know for a fact he has a Rockport TT. Not sure about the rest of his rig, but with that front end....you can imagine.
