How much of the sonic was improved by the shepherd tearing the fluff out of toys and placing them around the room?

Mikey, you are Blessed with the Gift of Passion for Quality of Life! Hang on to your Sharing Soul with all those who Share Similar Passions!🔥✌️

Human energy channels open when the static goes away! Respect to you and congrats to your host Lukas for putting together a kick ass system. I happen to love the hypex amplifiers especially when they are designed with a input buffer and a nice tube preamplifier for that midrange sweetness. 💯 Awesome!

Man that shows that passion and resourcefulness can put together a killer set up. 👍

I see a fellow rotary engine enthusiast😊

Love the rotor housing just sitting on the floor😂😂😂😂

Great stuff Mikey getting out amongst your tribe and doing this is fantastic. Well done mate👍🙂🎧

definitely a member of the tribe with those rotary parts on the floor haha! gotta love it!

Awesome class Mikey. Great to spend some time with Lukas a fellow tribe member with our same passion for music

The grounding thing does work. Just unbelievable!!

This is absolutely awesome. Proud of my good friend Lukas. The crown on his achievements is this video! Keep up the good work Lukas! Your doing a great audio job! You can be proud to be member of this audio tribe !!

Now this deserves a comment. How fantastic to visit a members home and shake hands. I live in the UK and would love to have you over one day, have some good food/drink and listen to music together. I feel like Hi-Fi can be a lonely hobby with most of the world thinking we are batshit crazy but it doesn’t have to be. One of my favourite videos on the channel thus far. Awesome.

So glad you showcased an entry-level system by one of the tribesmen. I have a beginner's rig and am usually too embarrassed to tell fellow "audiophiles" but feel welcome here. Thank you!

Awesome system, money trumps passion and setup. Love to see what people put together within their budget, real systems like this that are focused on making music. Great job, thanks for sharing.

Good Day Mikey, your recording of this content is that good, I feel here in my home, the pressure of the music over my ALtec Lansing

This is the type of content I really like. One thing about the system that I seem to notice is that it is not sibilant in anyway and almost laid-back which I like a lot. You changing the speaker placement definitely made a difference as they were way too close together and not towed in at all. Well, done, Mikey.!

Grounding the listener works best when you ground the ears. Takes two ground cords and you have to clip it to both ears.

Nicely done! Huzzah 🥳

I could definitely hear an improvement in the sound when you widened the distance between the speakers and toed them in. I also keep a bag of small quart crystals on top of my breaker box which helped to elevate the sound of my system. Now I'm going to move my grounding mat which I use when sitting in front of my computer, down to my listen room and try grounding myself while listening. Should be interesting. Thanks for bringing an interesting and entertaining perspective to Hi End audio.

Another excellent video. Love that system and great to see you that you are not just passionate about high end systems. I think some (minority of the viewers) may have been a bit intimated., but this video should get rid of the intimidation factor. Always learn something and genuinely enjoy and feel your audiphile passion!

Hi Mikey So glad to see this! It’s not about how much we spend! It’s all about listening to music and feeling the soul in it. Take Care Bill

Its good to see you get very much respect for this gentleman!🙏 I'm very curious when you visit Pink Faun and what you think 2.16 ultra streamer.

Quartz, new to me. Cat did an excellent job. The wonders of pillows I use them myself lol!

great video! really appreciate a visit with a tribe member 👍

And this, is the philosophy that brings me here. While I have what is a substantial amount of money for me in my system, it's not anywhere near top tier. My approach to putting together a system was to start with the best speakers I could afford that provided me with the tonality I prefer. from there I am working my way back to source. I have sound I've always dreamed of, but I know that my room and set up could definitely get me next level before any more money is spent. It's probably not the way most would or should approach building a system, but for me I have zero regrets. My wife came home from going to the movies with my daughter and walked in and said. "Have you been sitting here listening to music this whole time?" With a smile I said "YEP"

Synergy is actually a huge factor that people dont consider, and that's the difficult part of audio since there are so many variables. We got dac, pre, amp, source, you name it. In addition EQ and room acoustics plays a major role. The fact is most of us go to these audio shows and I mean 80%+ of those rooms are garbage, even with a million dollar system. You cant go in and say the room is why it sounds like crap, because the fact is there are the same exact rooms with different set ups and at cheaper prices and they sound amazing. You must factor everything if you want that happy place in audio.

My music system is Dali ,NAD, Sony and Garrard. The movie is Denon ( now laff ) Tangent front, Dali centre, Mordaunt short rear and Jaycar sub. The other room has a Diy class D with Marantz 6G Altronics pre amp and DIY modified Bluetooth link ( was a hands free phone kit until I got my tools out )

Tbh, people mock lifting cables off the ground, but it does make a difference. That's what's cool about you Mikey...you're a really humble dude. I like audiophiles like you. I'm in the industry aswell, so you know where I am coming from. Thankyou

I tuned more than 15 years my hifi room but now i moved to another country and sold everything so now i have to begin again😊

I hope that’s all he chews on,nice setup micky if your ever in Las Vegas love for you to come see mine

These Mission ZX-5 speakers are gorgeous! But seem not sold in US/Canada 😪 I like these vids, Mike!

Hi again mikey repostioned speakers sounds more filled out in the midrange, job well done 👍

Wow wonderful systems ❤

Mikey....refreshing to see you giving credit to a lesser priced system:)

Awesome video ❤

Speakers are Mission ZX-5’s and are seeeeously underrated. What you get for the money is insane

The dog is happy with his toy ❤,😊

Great stuff. Making the world smaller one visit at a time.

I was really digging that song, Slow Ready from Goose. I started looking up the band because they have a very 80s and 90s synth pop vibe to them and then I realize that they started in 2014 two towns away from my town in Connecticut.😮

Interesting grounding tweak. I only listened via iPhone speakers so it was hard to assess differences. Nice work on the slight change in speaker placement, Mikey! How large is Lukas’ listening space? It seemed pretty nice-14 ft X 20 ft?

Incredible system for the $$$

That cute dog was enjoying his toys. 😁👌

Lucas great person and great system.

Excellent. For the money. All audio systems must be at similar prices.

Groeten uit Grunningen....like this...hope you enjoyed the netherlands

Wow you are really a great person

Cool content! Even with the system shut down, I still RF/ EMI. Tell us more about the Crystal thing

This was a fun one Mikey. Any tips on the wide tow in?

Orale Lucas! 🤙🏼 wassup tribe! 🎶

I was in Groningen in 2005,we bought cars for sale and we sold them in poland,amazing town in Nederland ❤

Cool video. Before I got targeted and life went to shit, I had a similar sized room and setup. I found treating my front glass cathedral window made a huge difference. I kept waiting for Mikey to suggest some inexpensive treatment on that glass. I would suggest his next upgrade be amplifiers. I miss this world. 😢 I loved it!

Bravo!

The wider placement with on axis toe in is a no brainer in that room.

The subs will be way out of time/phase unless the fronts are delayed in time? I also prefer and use the wider placement 👍

Very nice Mikey glad you could visit a Tribe member and tweak his system for better sound, good stuff man! P.S. If you’re ever up in the PNW you’re welcome to stop by for a listen to my rig.

Please tell us where to place the quartz crystal for maximum performance? Which part of the PC benefits the most of the crystal?

Bello/Magnifico.💗✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️

Big Mikey Pea is in da hooooose mofoooos! Sounds better than Big Jay's milly bucks system, not gonna lie

Nice experience to share - what is that one song we heard playing the whole time?

I have same motto in my life minimum input maximum (output) performance 😊 i have my own DIY approx $10K & it sound fantastic

Now I'm wondering if an FLFE (Focused Life-Force Energy) subscription would affect the sound.

Vibes.

When the video started I was preparing to mention placing the speakers further apart and toeing them in.... then .... hey presto! 😆

Mikey yer like Jesus in that story with loafs and the fishes … 😅. Big improvement there.. next stop Ireland 🇮🇪

I couldn't hear any difference with the phone "grounded." You said to ask so I'm asking. What difference did you hear when you were grounded?

goose slow ready

When grounded, it seems a little bit clear sound. Am I the only one hear? Or the phone case somehow block the sound

Recording speakers like this never works. A big chunk of what you hear is the room. Amazing.

But, but, Mikey doesn't like Goose! 😉

Is that a rotary engine pice on the rug?

What % of your customers have a turntable?

What part of this is 4 grand ?? “ system is a bit misleading “

Equipment list?

That room aint wide enuf, so i dont expect much. The subs arnt needed

Roary head too...... brap brap

I forget my family members names…

Where's the setup listed?

DOES HE EAT REAL CATS TOO?

what song is it?

Give me a shoutout mikey, if you get near the artic circle (Norway) :)

rotary engine hahahahaha

Raising sub helps?

Anything hifi using pc is a waste of time and money cleaning usb noise, move over to streamers raspi 10x cheaper and 4x better.
