What's the worst speaker or stereo set-up you've ever seen?


I used to do home delivery and installation work and had access to some pretty high-end homes. I was amazed at how few of these well-heeled owners had nice audio systems, although many had some nice home theaters. One home owner had a basement stereo with small Maggies hinged on a wall like cabinet doors so he could direct the sound and, I guess, tuck them away when not in use. I also saw a pair of Bose 901’s pointed the wrong way. What’s the worse set-up you’ve seen?

One of  my speakers is in one corner(no other choice in my little  audio room) but it is possible to compensate that to a great degree with ACTIVE acoustics methods.... :)

Fabio’s system

MAIN SYSTEM

So geoffkait, Fabio is a neighbor, someone you follow? I mean after the the broken beak, on the roller coaster? I kinda, wondered.. Big news, was Fabio, getting his nose broke on a roller coaster!!!!

My dog’s head is cocked sideways.. The goat, still on the SL for eatin’ my hat. So his thought’s don’t count...(the goat)

Could you explain to her (girl dog), why Fabio’s broken nose has anything to do with his system? I think it ruined something else.. AND the big stereo is a cover up.... It’s got to have something to do with the Covid 19 thing too... Look at Italy, they were sure hit hard.......Right...;-(

Got to be some government cover up... How am I doing.. ;-)

She is awaiting your words on this...BTW she's not allergic, to most human breads, some of the long hair though, a little Benadryl, and she's good.
