World's Greatest Exotic Audio Systems - Beauty of Sound 

it sounded so good on video, must be mind blowing in person. my eye brows went up when the vocals came.

That is absolutely hands down the best sounding system I’ve ever heard over RU-vid, and I’m sure that wouldn’t change in real life. It honestly made my eyes well up a bit. Just plain, wow...

Thanks guys for the positive comments on the sound here at Beauty Of Sound. Yes, the Bastanis speakers are very revealing and show the true nature of each recording. They are also very dynamic! I'd be happy to answer any questions regarding the gear shown here in the video.

Two friends of mine owned a speaker shop in Phoenix. They built a number of custom speakers for homes on Camelback Mountain where owners would have custom home theater and HiFi systems built into the walls and they built free standing speakers of their own design. I miss hanging out there sonSaturdays where they would t St new ideas and show their latest offering along with the amplifiers and turntables they sold. Thanks for letting us listen to your products.

This is one of the best sounding AV Show Reports demo's of this song as I can hear on my headphone playback system I always use to watch them - its the clarity of the nuances of the vocal compared to others and ther clarity of the kick drum at the start - top stuff

Nice overall sound!!! Actually some of the cleanest sounding music on an audiophile You Tube video, so far. Speakers look like they are made out of some sort of custom Plywood? or nicer wood?

Sounds nice even through the PC's $90 Logitech speakers lol

This is not the first time I watched Bil's lineup and I have to say... he KNOWS his stuff. Spectacular sound with more than usual layers and details. Great video Peter

Great sounding ! True audiophile :)

He's worried about EMI between tubes, but has a running plasma ball in near the stereo?

Amazing ! Actually never thought it will sound that good . The man is a genius. Respect.

IMPRESSIVE SOUND!!!

Ouf! Delicious ! Recording is nice now

The really interesting part is that our digital equipment (even via RU-vid compression) can obviously also deliver that sound quality. I don't say that you can't have stunning sound quality with an analog system. But obviously you can also have it on a (much less expensive) digital system 👍🏻

The vocal clarity shocked the hell out of me. Never heard that from a vinyl record.

Sounds live through RU-vid. How is it possible to recreate it so well through RU-vid🤔 I'd love to hear this in person

What will happen if a cheap plastic Aiwa turntable sounds equal to these monsters??? Its like a gold flute or a platinum flute and another one made of old spoons forks and knives recicled metal sound the same???

Wow it's like they are right there in the room LIVE

Guess I need new pair of socks because you just blew the once I had off. Wow great sound

I am listening through my Audio-Technica AHT-M50x Headphones and it sounds superb. Can only imagine how it would sound in person.

the most incredible piece was that Italian made turntable--awesome!

Lovely video, regardless of the price of the products and such. Always interesting to see people bring things like this to our attention and give us an in depth tour of them!

The beautiful turntable! Nice SOUND!

@ 7:50 . It sounds so amazing, but how? it is a youtube audio source and my basic Sony headphones. But it sounds amazing! how ???

Very nice so natural and clean nothing pushed.

Who is the song by? Got to know the artist. And this is by far the best sounding demo of speakers I have heard on youtube.

Complimenti, fantastico !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Simply amazing, of all the systems at shows and videos of the many other home systems (as best my speakers can interpret them), this one sounds absolutely stunning compared to all the rest!

jealous of your system. Concrats!

Kudos to the systembuilder, superb performance even on video! This is the second video of a system that imho really captured the music that is in this swinging track. The other one was to me the munich 2015 silbatone WE oddity (keep filming those!). Indeed I can imagine that this sound will not be to everyones liking. It highlights a set of values different from the mainstream.

Mhm... Mhm... Mhm mhm mhm... Outstanding... Mhm mhm... Mhm mhm mhm... How bout that... Mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm.

This is the most incredible sound system that I have ever heard, even on youtube and all the degradation that follows. Curious question, is that microphone feedback at 10:03 and 10:06 or is it guitar slide or harmonics? Thank you for sharing!

What microphone was used sounds decent through my HD-25s

Fabulous!

Sounds awesome even through my phone speakers im sure it would be glorious in real life

Amazing sound.

Wow! Very nice! Thanks for posting.

MIND BLOOOWWIINNNG CRAZY CRAZY SUPER GOOOD OH YEAH 😁

this would be cool with some hiphop and blues records! nice setup!

Wow....sounds awesome!!!!

Excellent sound.

So... We have all been listening Vanessa Fernandez's performance of "Here But I'm Gone" on quite few occasions now, through this channels videos, reporting on all the wonderful show and all that .But somehow, here on this playback gear sounds just better or more emotional, more alive compared to the playback in the other videos. Is it just me at this moment or the way it was recorded in this instance, maybe the room and the acoustical treatments ? It was like " hang on now, what is going on here ? " kinda moment for me ! I'm watching the videos on my laptop connected with Kimber USB to AudioEngine D1 and Shure SE425 , so not really high end stuff at all, but on this video it seriously struck me how it sounded. I'm embarrassed to say I'm not familiar at all with any of the manufacturers aside of Stillpoints and the mentioned Apogee, but dang did it deliver !!! Any input about this guys ??? Seems the fine folks at "Beauty Of Sound " did their home work . Regards .

I've never understood the point of listening to super high end stereo systems on RU-vid.

Pallbearer over and over cover would be nice to hear.

Ok, impressive bass and excellent, well known, open baffle clarity. But I'm sure the coherency of the imaging suffers from all these huge reflective surfaces and the far from the point source approach of the speaker design. The ripole as a subwofer sounds great.

These sort of videos have one problem. That is, these people never think to make their own stuff. I mean like come on, what is heavy canvas in a frame for sound deadening? Thats an easy DYI project. Though, this system does give me some ideas for future audio experiments. Grate video, earned my like.

sounds fantastic in my sennheiser headphones

Video sounds awesome!

Turntable is TOURBILLON TURNTABLE

This would go well in my five year old daughter's room - good for a little girl's setup

That red turntable looks like it should be powering the starship Enterprise.

This equipment impresses me as uninhibited in releasing everything from the source, good or bad, which may or may not be disconcerting to some listeners that are spoiled by electronic illusions produced to make everything a world of sound as heard from behind rose-colored filters that are meant to always please. Sounds like a powerful setup, but not for everyone. Reasoning: Maria Callas was unquestionably a devoted woman to her artistry and a fine musician; however, in her quest for the interpreting the composer's intent, she many times would sacrifice beauty of tone, for the reality of meaning. This exposed her to the critiques, who not only wished to find fault, but who also went about to create controversy for their own profit. I am not so sure everyone will receive these well-engineered products for the same caprice of critics and public alike. Perhaps if all sources were of the highest quality in recording standards, but we know that has not been nor shall be in the future where fallibility and personal agenda is involved.

Aw man....this song again?

aptly named. Beautiful sound.

Pure class A sound

great sound

Amazing set up. This guy must have the world's most sensitive hearing

Whats the name of the artist and song thats being played here?

Its more expensive....it MUST be better.

lucky i replace the(desktop) speaker this morning..(to something "high end with aluminum speaker diaphragm ")

I'm stunned to find within your narrative Sir, & certain you make reference to them, having rewound countless times, a Sub-Wooffer offering 100% er, 100%, something! My Lord.... quite-simply....My-Lord..... That sounds better than a stunning set-up I underwent a foot-transplant to secure, sadly, the foot sprouted a half-scale Barn-Owl... which...er. Just as we touch on that isthmus of a possible advance in HRG & it's application for Genus-Year-Zero work with The Order of Nine-Angels, David Myatt mentioned a possible redesigning of the most important research-line... This nonsense is the result of simply clicking one of four suggestions in my predictive-text line... Very strange indeed....

What are the two pieces of music played?

Sorry but the high end is not clear ,mite be the high end head shell he was talking about lol

Would this set up make my vinyls sound as good as they do on a Crosley Cruiser?

Wish I could buy this lol

Do they pound bass? Looks girly

Hand made audio tech? hmm interesting And tourbillon, like the watch mechanism, designed the counter the effects of gravity.

almost crying

He needs to invite mike to come listen to his chasing the dragon properly for the first time.

Suppper!!!!..

How can you tell the sound is good? It's recorded of a microphone and played on whatever speakers or headphones via a soundcard on the computer you've got, every step is a degradation of the soundquality. It does not matter if it was a million-dollar speaker or a budget speaker, the sound will not be better than the quality of the microphone used or the capabilities of your own speakers. And even if your setup is high end, top of the line, they will not have the same sound as the one on the video.

Gosh, i really want to look at this in-person, but i know for a fact that this will never, EVER happen :C

respect ))))

DAUM!

Spend all that money on a belt driven turntable? I'd expect a direct drive system at that price.

mHm.. Mhm mhm... MhM.. Mhm mhm..

Price ?

elton john would spend more on flowers.

Um huh...

Why pay so much for a turntable? I have one myself because I prefer some music on vinyl but that is quite absurd. Vinyl is nowhere near the quality of solid state digital music. Maybe it's my preference for the cold audio and stereo bass but Vinyl does not sound as good as digital since the bass is run in mono.

Only if I could afford it lol

Every audiophile knows that when you unbox your new $15,000 turntable the first thing you do is Scotch Tape 3 pennies to the tone arms headshell, you know so the needle really digs into the vinyl for the best possible distortion...lol.

Sorry. Not my cup of tea. I'll stick with my full range electrostatics and direct to disc LPs.

Nice sound. But Id never listen to this music. Boring

Tubeamps for hifi = nonsense.

Goddamn it - yet another demo with soft female vocals. Is that all you high-end wallahs ever listen to? Doesn't your stuff handle anything else? Sick of this shit.

Not digging this tune.

Good sound. Terrible taste in music.

Sound is excellent. Really good
