okay happy Friday let's go I got a nice
video for you I I'll try to keep it
reasonably short it is a intro
video it's not a full review it's an
introduction before I continue if SU 000
is too much for you comment below this
video if you're a subscriber go ahead
and subscribe if you're not I'd
appreciate the engagement I'm going to
give somebody the comments below my
collaboration with simgot the DSP is
already going to the
original video for simgot plus the unbox
is the DSP I said and that'll be Monday
that I do that and announce it on the
unbox channel and then the collab will
be from this video and that and then I
have one more 300 to give in the future
and they did really really good um um so
if you can't afford and this is out of
your Park your ballpark go ahead and
comment below anyway because you can
still benefit and get something to enjoy
your music with which is one of those
simgot and they do it quite well now
talking about another level in many ways
sound
reproduction cost of course would be
this set right here which is um lapis
lazuli and Brass I thought it was copper
but it's brass there's 100 sets it's
limited it's the storm was 50 this is
100 there's some things I'll talk about
that are a benefit to that limited run
and it's kind of because it's an
investment um it's design is let me go
ahead and take a look at I want to the
name of PMG audio was somebody's name PE
p Mar greni I just totally bot that
audio is where this name comes from and
he is a person that is it says in 2012
he was a longtime reviewer so he did
what I did and then and he was a head
member and a diyer and then he founded
custom art which is probably a company
you're familiar with I didn't know that
I looked at this so 12 years ago this
person was working on the development of
a company that a lot of people around
the world know of now particularly if
you spend around $1,000 for IM in that
range a lot of custom Arts are around
there and some of them are excellent
this is the summit F wi which is called
PMG audio and this is an 11 driver set
and it's very very interesting for
several reasons the caps and the the
original was Amber this is like precious
stones um it's beautiful in the hand the
case that it comes with is there's
nothing like this in the hobby as in 10
years I've been here and I bought all
the expensive stuff all the way up to
the Amber Pearl and all kinds of stuff
that cost $8 $9,000 I've never had
something presented so uh matching my
taste is this the blue case in the brown
case leather the divider case that's on
the bottom that I talked about in the
unboxing is just it's absolutely
brilliant it's a very well thought out
presentation and set it it's very mature
it feels like a summit 5 set in every
way it sounds like a mature turning
tuning it looks like it's well put
together and it's presented to you in a
very nice way now let me talk about the
driver configuration really
quick this has planars on either bookend
on the subbase it's got a square planar
and then it's got a dynamic driver that
are taking care of the bass and then in
the lower mids there's Bas so if we're
talking about bass guitar and a drum kit
the Rhythm Section for a lot of my
library and sampling within hipop there
are three different types of drivers
that are caretaking the fundamentals
there and it's perfectly cohesive it's
an amazing feat and I didn't even know
that was the case until I took a look at
it which was this morning what the
actual layout of the drivers are it's a
seven-way passive crossover system it's
got um again the planar the dynamic
driver and the lower mid Bas which are
take three different types of drivers
taking care of the Rhythm Section for my
library and then in addition to that
it's got two Bas in the mids two ba in
the upper mid two ba in the high and
then one round planar taking care of
the basically the upper treble I would
imagine so you got planars and and
that's a round planar taking Tak care of
the upper
trouble it is a resolution Beast three
albums that I'll mention because this is
an review I want to talk about this for
just a second for sets like the grand
Maestro and the camper and the storm I
do multiple videos usually four an
unboxing an introduction to the Set uh
Money Trees where I compare it with
other Summit five sets and give my
ranking and my opinion with my library
and then its own review like I do for
all sets where I talk about bass with
guitar a bass guitar four and five
string a drum kit and also drops from an
808 Roland and then I talk about mids
which are essentially vocals for my
library and then I talk about overtones
and harmonics which is really upper mids
and trouble for my library and I would
do that for this set
um is it worth it in my opinion um the
top sets that I have on my table the
camper the rn6 and the grand Maestro I
bought I bought all of those the storm
right here which I'm I'm selling because
this is taking the place I've only got
four stands and that's the way that I
came up with the Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse I don't have any more of
these stands so I'll just go with four
and then more of that's kind of
collecting
and I don't want to be a hoarder that's
why I give away stuff all the time
because this stuff really piles up
pretty quickly and it's better to
just take care of other people and
spread the joy of the music um so this
is going to go up on my table it'll be
the first set that was sent to me and I
didn't pay for it the Amber Pearl used
to be up here I paid for that that was
$9,000 I got a discount that was $89 I
got a discount from music tech but I
still paid well over 6K for it which is
more than this set the camper I paid
full price for that or I music tech
discount the cims I paid full price for
the RN six I bought Once Sold lost money
and bought it again because I I really
was dumb to sell that set and then the
grandmeister which has four different
types of tuning is a base beast and one
of them and is a um flat base and mids
and another it's a exceptional set by
frat frequency it's the best that
they've done I haven't heard the
anniversary edition yet this joins The
Four Horsemen now and so the storm is
going to go I I won't really get into
that sold it for 5,000 to uh patreon but
I was offered 7,000 by a newer patreon I
think they joined to buy it or recently
joined and they said I'll give you 7,000
for the storm then the guy that's been
with me since I started said f i got I I
could do five and I said done he's from
Hawaii too so I could dis disclose that
a patreon and is from Hawaii so he's
getting the storm congrats to you bro
definitely definitely run this off a
desktop amp a good quality amp the storm
loves the more power the more good clean
power the more you're going to get out
of the storm it is designed for that
type of setup I don't think daps for the
most part Ken does well with it I really
think the the storm is a desktop set of
earphones I believe that and I recommend
it so bro if you're watching this video
set it up get ready for it that's a
legit Bonker set now I said that that
CAU I was offered 7K there's 50 of these
released and a lot of people want it but
they can't get it there's going to be a
hundred of these in the wild and there's
not going to be more than that and
eventually people are going to come
across my video or other people's
opinions and if they have a library like
mine and after I do my full review and
I'm very very very specific about why I
love it it will help to make this a set
that is sought out in 6 months and a
year and a year and a half and it won't
be there anymore and so people will
start looking on the secondhand market
and when you're the seller of this set
because you bought it you've got the
leverage because they can't just go
looking at other places because there's
only 99 other people in the whole planet
that even have a set and probably a lot
of them will never sell it so that's
leverage and that means that you
probably get your money back for this if
you decide I think I'd like to try
another epic set you probably get it
back the tuning will do that the limited
run will do that the presentation in the
cable will help a lot with that this is
a really amazing set three albums that
I'll touch on really quickly before I
let you guys go Fleetwood Mac Rumors two
females stepen ni Christy McVey they
don't sound the same Chris stepen X has
the kind of throaty almost male vocals
sound um Lindsay Buckingham M Fleetwood
with the male vocals it's a vocal
Centric album with a lot of acoustic
sets it's an emotionally charged album
that if you you know the background of
when it was made this person slept with
this person this person broke up with
this person it's infused in the music
it's an emotional album um and it's also
very well produced it sounds great on
this the the rides the crashes the
acoustic guitars by Lindsay buckham it
sounds amazing male and female bogus
sound great um Thriller by Michael
Jackson it's got great production want
to be starting something among others
sounds Thriller it sounds fantastic on
one other thing I'll mention is Pink
Floyd Dark Side of the Moon which is
right there on that poster the panning
effect that goes on beginning of On The
Run um is very unique in the hobby the
chesky is the only other thing I know
that does something like that where it
really actually does seem like it's
uh it's panning behind your head which
is weird for IMS and people talk about
things being around your head I've
really only experienced a few sets in my
whole life that actually do that that
album and that panning effect is really
impressive on this set and then it
transitions into somebody making a gate
announcement now these cuts and
transitions are very they're like a
second to 1.5 second from one to the
other and the better quality and high
res the more seamless this whole thing
seems you go from the panning effect to
the gate announcement for passports to
Rome and there's other words in it that
I could write down and I've done in the
past and then it transitions into a
track so there's really three parts to
it this does that probably as good as
anything I've ever heard it just I did
it again and again again and again again
and again um never going back again the
acoustic um lindsy
Buckingham um you don't know what it
means to
and the finger sliding on the
fretboard you can catch that on that
album if you've got a set or audio gear
whether it's home speakers or anything
else of high quality and I can catch
that on this set I'll let you guys go
that's it this is the introduction
that's who PMG audio it's a person's
name um and this is the summit F wing of
that company and somebody in
this comment section might someday get a
tap on the shoulder or I might announce
that if you comment under this video and
it's older comment not a new one like I
did with the the elisian
X which I love much better the
annihilator go look at the graphs for it
it's much better for all around whereas
the the annihilator is more of a
v-shaped the a person who commented
under the video for that I said if
anybody wants that and you commented on
my video contact me contact me I said
you give $1,000 it was 15 or $2,000 to
this charity and then to this other
charity I don't get a doll I'm not going
to I paid for the set full price I'm
you're going to get it from me with the
liquid links cable but you got to pay
these two animal Charities and then send
me the proof and he did that on Twitter
he might watch this video bro comment
below this video because this I might do
the same thing with this the storm went
out for 5K I'm going to donate F $1,000
I'm going to split it into 500 to two
different charities and the other four
I'm going to keep um myself I do
different things sometimes I do all of
the money to the charity sometimes I do
some of it um but this might go out
someday so comment below this video on
the wild chance that this might be uh
Super Deal someday down the road I doubt
it's going to be anytime soon I know it
won't be actually um because I got to
keep it to compare to other sets for the
next little while but it could always
come along and in the meantime
definitely a commenter below this video
who's a subscriber is going to get that
collab right there so you guys have an
awesome weekend want to say one more
thing before I check
out I'm I'm a my life is so awesome
right now it's it's it's like a dream I
want to say that um I see some videos
sometimes and I check out of them
because people are very stressed out and
talking about how they're going to get
out of the hobby or they're going to do
something like that can get it because
the the internet and social media and
it's all kind of can get kind of crazy
my headp space now is with my son my son
has a new word every day every day he
says something new to me and he does it
in Japanese and also does it in English
cuz he's a bilingual baby um and he's
picking up words in both languages and
it just blows my mind how smart he is we
we myself and a lot of people that I
observe tend to get into tough times and
then reflect through the the mirror of
time of when it used to be a awesome
when when we were younger when the money
was good when everything was going right
and we we we remember that it's like
your health you don't think about how
precious health is until that's dinged
until you're not having it you wish you
did and You' give up all your money and
all your goods to get back your health
I'm in the spot right now and because
when I look at my son's face I'm
reminded of it constantly I'm aware that
I'm in that spot my life is epic right
now I want for nothing and my son is
healthy and I love him to death and my
wife is healthy and I lover her to death
I'm so absolutely
blessed remember when you're in those
moments to appreciate them and to to
make to acknowledge you're there because
when you're not you're going to hold
those
memories but when you're in the making
memory time be aware of it because it's
it's good stuff I'm I'm I'm loving my
life right now karma um sometimes it
hits us hard at the wrong time and then
it lifts us up at the right time and I
guess that's what that's all about so
you guys have an awesome weekend I will
continue this series after a couple
other videos but I will do the
comparison to other Summit FES and then
also the um full standard review that I
do for sets where I talk about the
different tracks that I usually talk
about so you guys have a great weekend
and I will see you probably Monday and I
am
