Pft, I've never heard a Runco projector that sounded remotely decent at all.

Anyone bothered to show/create the full setup (receivers, speakers, amps, projector/TV, subs etc...)
Reading is a life skill:
The crazy horn system I'm talking about was MUCH bigger than that photo. I don't remember a ton about it, but I do remember one of the horns was bigger than a room and had to be extended well outside of the building.

Eee Pee:
That's crazy.
Has anyone ever heard one of the giant horn set-ups? I"m curious.

I always imagined I would do something like the system mochimon mentioned:
I bet they can keep their room ice cold with that circle of amps so close.
You see that wasn't my question.... My question was, if a billionaire had billions of dollars to spend and he wanted THE BEST of the BEST. for his home cinema... What would he buy? Certainly if you have 50 billion USD in your bank and loved hi-fi equipment you'd spend more than a few thousand -__-
you guys are freakin idiots.
$6 million home theatre: http://freshome.com/2008/02/07/jeremy-kipnis%E2%80%99-6000000-home-theater/
this entire building was redone for this 2 channel listening room. its on its own power line, and has been changing a LOT over time: http://forums.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?vaslt&1036349020
according to some quick googling, an entry-level imax theatre costs a little over $3 million to build - not bad at all. of course this is just construction costs, and doesn't look at the cost of upkeep and staffing of the theatre - not to mention the hefty liscencing of commercial high-res films (if u have a screen like that, blu-ray would simply not cut it)
personally, i know i could top these budgets, but most of that money would be spent towards outrageous architecture, staffing, and rediculous amenities. If you really wanted to make it special you would need to put some thought into it - like you would need to buy and display major objects of movie history: scripts, original prints, set pieces and props, costumes, etc.. hell, if i were doing it, i would straight up finance and produce my own damn films - so i could really watch what *I* want to watch.
