That is not his listening room



I have been to Rick's place several times, and that is not his music listening room --it is his Foyer/entry area.

Rick has two places in Ca. and lots of great high end gear. He often attends the high-end portion of the shows at CES and is an avid music listener and audiophile--time allowing.

Rick owns an entire Ayre system--which was in his bedroom last time I was over. In his study, converted to listening room he has Manely 250 mono's, a Hovland pre-amp, and a Sony SCD-1 driving Audio Physic Virgo speakers. Elsewhere in his place in Hollywood he has some big Legacy speakers and Theta in a film room. In his Malibu place, from what I am told he has Avalon speakers and another great system of electronics, Ayre based again, I think.

Rick is a phenomenal ambassador for great sound and refers recording and mastering people he works with to high end companies --so the recording systems can be improved. He even has a studio in his Hollywood home, again using high-end products.

His discography speaks for itself, and is broader in range that any record producers past or present. It doesn't take much searching to see also that he has accolades from everyone he works with.

Most importantly though, he is an incredibly congenial, selfless person and very generous with his time. There is a great interview with Michael Fremer posted on Michael's Music Angle web. http://www.musicangle.com/feat.php?id=38

In the high end hobby and business, we are all lucky to have him on the team.
