Jeremy Kipnis’s Home Theater

This home theater is all about aggressively advancing the state of the art of picture and sound presentation.

The picture elements alone are composed of a Sony SRX-S110 Professional Video Projector with an impressive 4,096-by-2,160 resolution and the Stewart Snowmatte 1.0 Gain Laboratory-Grade Motion Picture Screen stands at a mammoth 18 x 10-foot which is nearly equivalent to an actual theater screen viewed from the balcony! The players and sources are even more exciting with a Sony BDP-S1 Blu-ray Player complimented by a state-of-the-art Toshiba HD-XA1 HD DVD Player with SATA Drive (72 HDTV Hours Total) and Mark Levinson N° 51 DVD/CD Media Player upping the ante for most other HT systems.

Kipnis calls his creation the Kipnis Studio Standard, and if all goes according to plan, wealthy movie industry professionals, actors, directors, and producers will be lining up to commission him to custom-design and build a KSS for them.

The Jeremy Kipnis also features a Pioneer HLD-X0 Hi-Vision HDTV MUSE Laserdisc Player as well as JVC HMDH-5U D-VHS Recorder in case you need to record, say, the World Cup final or something, and for the gaming fans, the system features a Sony PlayStation 3 Gaming Console.

The 8.8 channel audio system is fed by a well-balanced combination of audiophile solid-state and vacuum-tube amplifiers. The KSS is astonishing in the way it delivers power, but with 11,315 very high-quality watts on tap, that’s hardly surprising. The 8.8 channel system uses 16 (!!!) 18-inch subwoofers and that might be why the KSS is easily the most effortlessly powerful home theater I have ever heard. Unlike all of the other high-end home theaters, the KSS was designed to present picture and sound beyond that found in even the finest screening rooms. Kipnis spared no expense to build the very best.
