Are there any audiophile Air BnB's?


Hi all, 

As question stated i'd like to set up a trip with a few friends to rent something really cool as we near retirement.  Would be neat if there was some type of Carmel CA beach house, overlooking the ocean with a $30K well vetted system in it.  I'd take CO overlooking the mountains or Sedona AZ also.   Anyone ever seen anything like this?  

Thanks, 

Eric

Not an Airbnb but Memphis, TN has a hotel has the Central Station Hotel with custom sound systems by EgglestonWorks. They are headquartered in Memphis and were commissioned by the hotel to install sound systems in every room. The main system in the lobby is unreal.

 

 

Nice idea but I don’t know who would trust Air BnB's tenants with high end system. This is like to borrow your toothbrush to someone. Ones I was out for several days  vacation and my adult daughter with her boyfriend who is professional DJ tried to turn on my system. They were shy to ask me how to do it so during couple of days they tried to do everything. Results: messed up connections and moved components and tubes was left on for several days. :)

Wow, great in theory but we just sold a house in st George island Fl where there are mostly rentals. The guy across the canal had a renter rip all the flat screen tvs off the wall and off they went back to some college dormitory. This would be hard to pull off unless you chain everything down somehow. Not for me as an owner. As a renter, I’d like it. But wow, what a variable. 

There is another path, Grasshoppers, we do AirBnB from our house & our main system is fairly decent (Martin-Logan, over cone lower midrange, plus 18" sub).- we're pleased to host fellow audioholics & will sit you in a comfy chair and play tunes from our 4+ Tb music library.
