First, this guy is a McIntosh and Richard Grey's Dealer, so he didn't pay 1 million dollars. Secondly, I could put together and have heard systems for 250K (Price of a Ferrari) that would trounce this system. Quite a few audio relates stories recently. keep it up!!!
BTW, that Pioneer RPTV will kill any flat panel HDTV made today in picture quality, unfortunately its just bulky. People either forget or aren't aware that Flat panel displays ushered in an era of poor image quality under the guise of High Definition. Only recently have flat panels started to give good HD images. The popularity and influx of flat panel displays had nothing to do with picture quality and everything to do with aesthetics (Remember the Philips ceilling mounted plasma commercial?).

Hi guys: I wrote the story... The photo is deceiving, but he does have a 120-inch screen. The RPTV is only used as a menu for his music server.
