And it has never occurred to you that you are a prop on the set of multiple tv shows and that these are your work mates? It's amazing how the obvious is sometimes never seen.

Robert Redford operated a high-end turntable in Indecent Proposal, I think that it was a VPI but it may not havebeen: it's been a long time. I've also seen Linn gear on some Scottish detective series whose name escapes me. And I think that DCI Banks has Arcam electronics too.

 

Am I the only one who sometimes pauses a movie just to try and work out what the hi-fi in the background is? It drives my wife to distraction.

Redford also spins a record in Horse Whisperer, maybe he's a fan?

Google says "Meridian DSP 5200"dsp5200-cutout-3q.jpg

Yep that looks like them :) thanks. Very curious why they keep popping up so much. They look pretty good, but why? So Many times. Prop house needs more stock. My brain might just explode.

watching the rock in welcome to the jungle.

Clearly not into vinyl as he grabs (possible technics 1200) and bashes the other guy with it.

And then throws it towards another..

Is fun to watch :)

@@Dirty_vinylpusher, just saw a pair of these and a stack of the top end Meridian electronics in the fillum Limitless which came on right after the Cricket World Cup final.

 

If this film has been mentioned in this thread before, I do apologise.

I’m getting a NAD T770 digital decoder with 70-watt amps and Burr-Brown DACs.

It’s a big stereo.

Speakers so loud, they blow women’s clothes off!

Just finished watching "A most wanted man".

Mr Hoffman is seen in his apartment playing the piano and in back of shot only a little out of focus is one mutha of a Marantz amp (gold with the blue star on the front) and matching CD player. Stacked either side was a bunch of vinyl too.

And the movie "Philadelphia" with Tom Hanks has some Audiostatic ES100 ESLs that he's playing some classical through one evening.

Watched a Korean movie on SBS a year or so ago. The main character loved music and he's shown auditioning a whole bunch of valve gear in his home with a salesman.

I forget the name of the movie but it was pretty full on crazy about a cop.

I guess some are product placement  but I think most of the systems seen in movies etc would be owned by the owner of the home whose place is being used as a set.

Last Friday's episode of Midsummer Murders: the victim had Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista M3 amplifier and the matching cd player. I can't say which speakers were with it s my wife started getting cranky when I wanted to pause/reverse to take a look. May have been ProAc.

 

I think I spotted some MF gear in Inspector Barnaby's place too.

Not quite HiFi but noticed the Mars Hab from "The Martian" has Ikea LED lights in it. I use one as my TT light as seen here. Can't find it on their catalogue any more so I assume it's discontinued.
