Here's another one I dug out of my archives, hehehe! This was at my house in Iowa around April 2008. I decided to stack my Kennies, but I did not stack them all, only the ones that were in my basement, I had more in storage.*rolleyes*

Wow! Can we say OKD? Obsessive Kenwood Disorder. As a member of Tapeheads I know nothing about being obsessive...

Yes, I'm noticing the biggest boyz are not in the picture cause they would have to be on the bottom.

I'd love to see the frequency response and dispersion measurements of that whole thing from about 10' away *grin*

The King of Kenwood! That's truly a Wall of Sound. Did you play all of them at one time?

No, Sam, I didn't hook them all up at once. Some of them did not have surrounds.

*hypnot*

That is one serious setup. Do I dare ask what kind of circuitry you require to drive them all at once? Are they all connected in some bizarre series that only a Mad Audiophile can conjure up or do you have several amps behind them? Are they on their own power line? How WOULD you play that many speakers at once and not trip a fuse breaker?

Add: one easy chair
Plus one big amplifier and source
Equals instant Maxell Man-in-Chair redux.

Nice wall of sound. I bet Sam is setting up his 10 pairs of Yamaha NS-1000's to post a picture also. *devil*

The most I had running at one time was four pairs driven by four PC2002M's. I tried horizontal stacking but went back to lateral.

Just like that scene from "Back To The Future" where Marty cranks everything to the max and it's so overloaded that the whole things blows, launching him across the room the second the pick touches the first string. *lmao*

Also the scene right before he strikes the string and it shows his pick "glitter" *flame*

Tuna had an incident like that, but in his case that is why you see missing foam on his speakers. *lmao*
