Thank You for reviving the old CS 7.2/Levinson thread. I would be interested in learning if any of those guys still own the 7.2 loudspeaker?"
Been quite a while since I lived in the DC area and my friend who worked at the store and I did deliveries with. Most of that was the late 1990s through around 2005 (my friend was gone from the store a few years when I sold my 7.2s and got my 3.7s and since he helped me sell my 7.2s the owner let him deliver my 3.7s and took care of him). There's an old Washington Post article (I was not able to find it) from around 15+ years ago about one of the people I was talking about that deals with ultra high end 2-channel systems. His first name was Hugh (last name escapes me at the moment - was a retired Navy pilot - very nice guy) and he was the focus of the article. I think back then he had about $140k at retail into his 2-channel system. Besides being over his place (which I enjoyed), I'd see him at events at the local audio shop. There probably weren't too many of us back then who used to frequent that local shop who owned 7.2s. Back then I think the most expensive speaker I saw in someone's house were these - https://manofmany.com/tech/audio/dynaudios-evidence-loudspeakers-85000-well-spent Room wasn't a good match (way too small but I understand the customer moved a couple of years later into a bigger place) and he had Levinson 33Hs which I helped install. I always look at used stuff (not that I need anything), particularly local to me and probably one of these days, I'll end up picking up something speaker wise.
