Ken Fritz's $1M Dream System update

@rooze needs to read the Post Article 

Here's this too (see newspaper link) and here's a documentary.

@rooze "People believe what they want to believe, generally."

I agree. 

I am one of the odd-balls that is open to listening and caring about other people's perspectives and positions in hopes of expanding my ability to understand more while on this planet. Lay it on me. 

@rooze and @veerossi 

I too am "ears wide open" to any additional information that reveals opposing information and would love to know what gear was not included in the online auction list I used to compile my spreadsheet.  I was handling the Probate Estate of my Mother at the time Ken's auction was occuring, and therefore I had an Excel  spreadsheet I created to help me with her estate items. 

To take my mind off of being an Executor, I made a copy of the spreadsheet and plugged Ken Fritz's stereo gear into the columns.  I had watched the documentary soon after it was originally released, so I was familiar with the items listed in the online auction.  I went back and watched the documentary again, and compared the items highlighted in it to the listed auction items.  I didn't see any disparity of note of the items shown in the documentary to the items listed for sale -- especially the audio gear in Ken's main room. 

Was there a lot more expensive gear not shown in the documentary that was sold prior to the auction?  For example, the Denon PBN turntable, 2 SOTA turntables, custom Tannoy speakers, custom JBL speakers, 2 Cayin and 1 Dynaco tube amp, an unreal number of JBL and Focal drivers in boxes, Krell gear, custom audio stands -- I could go on and on -- all were not mentioned in the documentary (that I saw) but are listed sold with the price online.  Do you know what other gear he may have had that wasn't shown in the documentary or on the auction site?  You said a lot of "high value gear/media was sold before the auction" -- I'd love to know what other gear Ken owned.

Did you get to go to his house near Richmond in person to view the pre-auction items?  If so, I'd love to know your impression.  Did you hear the main room system? Prior to the auction announcement, I read a forum thread authored by a friend of the daughter.  He was assisting the family early on when they were trying to figure out what to do.  Someone asked him if he had heard the system, and he said the daughter didn't know how to turn everything on, and at that time she wasn't sure who knew exactly how to set everything up properly. 

I'm envious if you saw everything in person, mainly because of the vinyl collection Ken owned and the actual listening room.  It looked beautiful in the documentary -- the furnishings, the ceiling's molding, the rugs, etc.  Thank you for any additional information you can provide. 

Does anybody really believe a Washington Post Article?  To me that’s the amazing story here.
