Paul, so cool of you to invite people to come by and check out that amazing room.

That music rooom costs more than my whole house, and car; if I had a house, or car!

I had the PS Audio Pre-amp and Phono stage amp at one time and I have to say, they were the best sounding amps I have ever owned. And I've owned quite a few. In fact, I'd give anything if I could find a set again. This time I will NOT get rid of them. Great work, Paul.

Boulder Colorado just made the bucket list pal. XD

I really hope one day to visit! Thanks for the virtual tour, Keep Rocking

Wow absolutely amazing.What makes this video so good is the presentation too.Genuinely warm and friendly.I bet PC Audio is a superb place to work.....just love what you guys do.

Having one of those listening rooms makes it all worthwhile. Like dropping a big block in and starting it up for the first time. Thanks. Your channel gives me hope

I have always wanted to visit your town, now I have a real excuse to. I would love to spend an hour in that room experiencing those IRS 5’s. It’s on my bucket list now. Keep up the great videos. Many thanks. Scott.

Wow that room really looks amazing. I wish I were closer, to drop by and listen to it... Great video as always Paul. It's so interesting to hear to everything you share.

Merry Christmas to everyone at PS, Thanks Paul for all the all the videos and for making high end audio fun and understandable. All the best in the new year.

just discovered your channel, am now subscribed and can’t wait to watch all your videos!

I wish I could hear what that sounds like some day.

I live like 20 mins from Boulder, what the hell im already on my way!

I'd love to hear that system. Back in 1989 I got to hear a system based on IRS Betas. It was quite an experience. The servo towers have great bass that is never overpowering and very much in control and can produce that "in the air" feeling you get when playing a huge pipe organ! Love it!

Absolutely incredible, and I am sure it will blow your mind hearing it! I can't even imagine what it would be like to crank up some of your favorite tunes on that system. Thx for the tour and I really enjoy all the knowledge you share with us. Sincerely.. -aj

As a former broadcast engineer, I certainly appreciate your channel. Great work.

I sit watching this on my TV which is connected to my stereo which has a set of Infinity RS 4/b speakers (2 eight inch woofers, a poly sphere mid range and a single EMIT tweeter) they sound really good but looking at this I have drool running down my chin, lol. Thanks for the tour!!

I would really like to hear that infinity model one day... I have the "IRS" Omega myself, and even though some say it should no be called a IRS, is one of the best speakers i ever heard. Can only imagine what these sound like...

What a great video. Paul has a really soothing and confident voice. Nice gear as well!

One of the best speakers ever. I heard the IRS V at the 96 Stereophile show.

You really have it made, Paul! 1) You live in beautiful Boulder, CO. 2) You have your own audio company and 3) You have this awesome music room!

This is wonderful. I can't imagine what the music would sound like. The number of drivers is much more important that I knew.

I heard these speakers once before about 20 years ago and they are amazing. They were at a local hifi shop in Edmonton Alberta Canada. At the time the retailer was saying they where $50,000. Worth every penny in my mind.

I need to remember this if I'm ever traveling there! It's awesome!

Thanks for the tour. Looks nice.

I will surely stop by next time I am in the area - thanks for the video.

Great room. I remember hearing these in the a Toronto hifi shop back in the 80s. A couple of us heard Pink Floyd coming from the back of store. They were blasting it on this Infinity system. Once we stepped into the back, smoke came out of the amps and that was it. On a side note, you're using the chairs I always wanted in my listening room. I eventually got one but removed it quickly. The reason is, and I'm surprised more people don't know this, but the high leather headrest creates reflection that change the sound. As does a baseball cap or heavy clothing around your head. That's my experience. Love your channel Paul!

I heard the Infinty system he is showing. It was the loudest quiet music that I ever heard. It wasn't turned up but it was everywhere but not loud. It was like a whispering giant and I usually listen to screaming Mini Me-s.

Man I'd love to hear that. Truly amazing. I just might take you up on the offer next time I'm there!

That is awesome and crazy! I'd love to listen to that one day when I get my health back. I'm already in the Denver area! Hopefully one day!!

Wow, that is one awesome room. I hope that I get a chance to visit one day. I'm poor and don't expect to ever be able to afford anything near the level of equipment in this room but I plan to build my own audio/theater room in the next few years and would love to hear what one is supposed to sound like.

Wow...!!! You should have a drawing for a trip out to Colorado to get a tour and a chance to sit and listen to you're music room. I've heard some really nice set-ups in my day but, nothing quite like that. (hint, hint...) hahahaha. GREAT video, Paul...!!! Thank you, Sir...

wow, that room is a work of art! I would love to visit someday. A bit hard for this poor soul however.

Will stop by when we're in Boulder! Would not want to miss a chance to hear those bad boys 🎶😗

Paul is so friendly and so calm and transmits peace and tranquility. He is also a hell of a seller.

Paul McGowan. It´s glad to see the passion you put in your work. Looking forward to buy PS products.

I have a great friend in CO who I visit semi regularly. I'll definitely drag him along next time I'm out there. Can't wait haha

Love your videos and explanations on all things pro audio!

Wow o wow, so cool. I'll drop in for sure if I ever pass by.

Hi Paul! I live in Broomfield and want to come to experience this room SO MUCH!! I'll call to make an appointment. I have been watching your videos. You are my new best friend and we haven't even yet met!

Thanks for tour!

Amazing system ... beautiful speakers

Question - with high end setups I often see the amps on or very close to the floor, sitting on stone slabs or a very low shelf. Is this to provide the most stable platform for them or because they are heavy as heck or both?

Enjoying your videos...Gary (life long audiophile).

Great, something else on my bucket list!

Hello Sir, let me tell you something. You a great man, man with soul and heart. Yhen everything else. Wish you everything the best for you and your family and keep going forward. Your chanel is like a huge new Universe for me. Marin, 73

I love watching his daily vlogs and what I would not give to spend an hour or two in this room. But hey Paul, one of the best sounding source items is out of use. Fit a top fight arm and cart and dust off that vinyl on your shelves. Keep the vlogs coming Mr McGown, you explain things in a simple to understand, calm and gentle way.

What a nice taste, Sir. No shiny gold plated boxes with ugly ports, but a true sound only.

In 1983 I owned the reduced size RS-1 Improveds, with seven EMIMs, 4 EMITs, and six 8 inch subs per side. In my room, at least double the width and four times the length of yours, the sound was good. The low bass was the best I've ever heard (thank goodness the speakers were on a concrete slab). But when I moved to an apartment, not so great. I completely rewired my speakers, and am surprised you have not done that. The Monster Cable wire they came with is marginal, to say the least. But I am sure they sound good!

What brand/model cables are used for connecting the emims?

You can really hear your voice change when you approached the diffusers. It got real dull like. Thanks for the tour. Hope to get there one day. Thanks again!

Paul, You covered everything in Music Room 1, except the components! Show us each one, and tell us something about it, such as how it may be connected, what cables, why; how everything switches on; etc. For a component manufacturer to gloss over his components is quizzical. However, I love the fact that your turntable shelf is covered in CD boxes! A man after my own digital ears!

Huge speakers in tiny room with little to none acoustic treatment. Bravo.

I will certainly stop in Boulder is a favorite vacation destination for us... just check your mind at the door before entering

I bet theses sound amazing.Hope to here a demo.I bet they would sound awesome in a theater!!!!! Just subscribed.

Paul McGowan ....I grew up across the river from Albany NY , they had an RTA dealer 1958 was the year and NIPPER is still sitting atop of the building . Nipper stats are as follows ... 4 TONS and 28' tall , now that would be cool out front of your building . Great sound room if i ever hit the lottery i will give you a call ..lol

Back in my audiophile days (mid-eighties), I auditioned a lot of high end stuff... Infinity, Polk, Magnepan, Thiel, Paradigm, Warfdale, B&W, Klipsch, and I never heard anything that impressed me as much as Vandersteen. Vandersteens don't sound like most other speakers, and a lot of people don't like their sound, but I never found a speaker that was less fatiguing. Loud, high dynamic range, killer bass is all great, but I'll gladly trade a lot of that for a speaker that is easy to listen to, that doesn't assault your ears after a few hours.

What is the purpose of the big wood wings on the tweeter / mid cabinet?

I need an afternoon in that room!

Darn it! I was in the area at SparkFun just down the road and I could have stopped by to listen.

I've heard those infinity's...very impressive.

question, dont you have huge comb filtering problems with 12+ drivers in a row top to bottom?? and phasing problems?

Hallo sir, Can you suggest me which book shelf passive speaker is best and a best amplifier for the same speaker system. I am waiting for your reply please answer my question.

There is a reason that ps audio makes some of the BEST hi end equipment in the world and this man is the reason. People who don’t understand the technology or can’t afford it just want to be negative. Best to keep that in mind when reading some of the negative comments

Noticed you had one of my favorite CD's sitting out Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble "The Sky Is Crying" I have the MFSL UDSACD 2078 version and it is just amazing to listen too, that and AIC's Jar of Flies are great demos for people

I'll take you up on your offer next time I'm in town, Paul! :-)

That is sure amazing, if I ever get out that way I would love to hear it. The Nipper dog is cool also. I always liked those also. You need the old phonograph with the horn speaker now to set in front of him. Thanks again.

I will be by summer 2018 thanks for the invite

so, as you say with stacking the mid/highs (being a great way to get huge sound out of minimal individual driver load) does that also apply to subs? i have a bunch of cheap subs under 100 each that definitely rattle the foundation of my house albeit on a 3000w car amp (taramps smart 3k at .4 ohms) and all magnets under 80oz but typically 50

do metal mesh grills negatively affect sound? as in a studio monitor like Yamaha NS-1000m....

I heard an Infinity IRS at a CES way back in the day. WOW!

amazing set up paul...

WOW PAUL WHAT A SYSTEM !!!!!!!!!!!!!---WHAT A ROOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very impressive and very nice!

I’ve been looking for a Subwoofer system that uses accelerometers to ensure proper output but haven’t found one yet. Couple decades ago I was given a demo of one but wasn’t able to afford it at the time but now I can. Who or where can I purchase an active correcting Subwoofer system?

What about the combing? I have 12 vintage coral 8's made for ob in 6bm8 se outputs in tv's of the error and 12 richard alan 10's I want to build something like this but the combing. I didn't want to have to use complex filters with my single watt amps.

I would love to hear that setup. If I’m ever in the area, for sure.

no cables to the tweeters?

I love it!!!! And need it.

How would the optimal shape of your music room be if you turned those speakers horizontally?

Damnit, I was perfectly happy with my Infinity RS-IIs til I watched this. Why did you have to do this? LOL. Actually I still am, I love these speakers. Best sounding speakers I've ever owned. Incredibly realistic and non-fatiguing at the same time. A difficult thing to do.

Super sound. I want an audition! Congratulation!

Wow, that kind of equipment is way out of my reach, also my wife would not approve this in the living room, but love to see what you have there :) If we ever move to a bigger house I want a listening room for myself and build one of these ;-)

I've put those speakers on my Christmas list but I'm not holding my breath.

What are all the components in the rack?

Did I understand correctly that all the "mid-range" drivers are playing smaller bands in the total range of the mid-range spectrum? Would speakers with 2 to 4 mid-range drivers benefit for that setup?

Love your gear .

Fascinating tour

How low can those Emim planar magnetic drivers go? Those look just a little larger than a ribbon tweeter.

Does this rig not need a subwoofers and would you explain?

Better speaker wires for those mid range speakers?

What is amazing is a strong man can lift that whole subwoofer section over his head.

I must ask, are each speaker driver 32 ohms or higher, so the collective resistance 4 or 8 ohms?

I got my self som kappa 8.1`s and are running a Pioneer VSX-LX 70. Is this amp in any way capable to handle these speakers? I mean, they sound ok in my appartment, but I got a Sub as well. Anyone with some good tips for settings? Regards from Norway

How many watts are the speakers ?

So I understand that the drivers are sharing the load but are they playing the same thing or do some handle a lower frequency and some handle a higher frequency inside the mid range of frequencies? Im not positive i'm using the correct vocabulary hopefully you understand my question.

Awesome! Might need to cut out a floor in my house to properly house this type of system!

what is the difference between diffusers and absorbers?

Hi Paul, I remember the IRS speakers when Harry Pearson had them. Those were the good old days! I had alot less money back then! Question - did you place the subwoofer panels a specific distance back from the main speakers? I'm setting up some subs and main speakers and I'm wondering about optimum distance, etc

If i am EVER in the USA i´m coming to listen to those bad boys would love to hear them
