Hurting? I wouldn't say that! In fact that's one of the coolest looking piles of stuff I've ever seen. I wouldn't even have to be there to assume it sounds amazing.
It's kinda funny, your pictures remind me of my own system. It is more like the redneck, poor man version of the same thing, with mine still very much being a work in progress. We have a similar design approach in the full range speakers and the big amps to drive them, but yours likely cost wwwaaaaayyyy more. Judging by the looks of it yours is one of few of a rare few Asylum systems I've seen that I'd be nervous about putting mine against in a raw SPL competition and yours obviously has an extra level (or two) of refinement in quality mine will never touch. I'm going to try and email you a photo of it this week even though I don't have it posted in inmates systems because I think you'll get akick out of it and maybe even a bit of a laugh. For example where you have a giant wooden shelf in back holding a whole bunch of equipment, in my system in that spot you'll find a full height industrial computer server rack full of my amplifiers computer and various other rack mount gear. Redneck I tell you.
My amps are mid eghties JBL/Urei model 6290's with quieted Pabst fans replacing the stock fans for nearly silent operation. They can draw some current as well when set free (my house wiring really needs an upgrade) as they are rated at 1200W into 8 ohms as I have the fronts configured (bridged). These amps are in fact pro amps I got from Morgan sound in N. Seattle area when they were upgrading to digital. At $50 each I think I scored a fine deal, the owner was a bit tweaked when she found out what the sales guy was giving them to me for. At that price I told hime give me four and I already have more into tweaking them than I paid for them haha. The main problem with them seems to be the fans they come stock with but I solved that. Other than the fans they are dead quiet, sound great to my ears, and pack a big punch. I can't wait to try them on some dedicated lines.
