This obviously can't compare with Phazon, but now closed Spy Club in Cincinnati had an incredible system for the small space it used. I heard its going to reopen as a new club next month and the system is gonna be almost doubled in size...I can't wait!!!!!!!

Re: Which Club has the best soundsystem in the US?

by far THE best sound system that i have ever heard was at twilo...it was steve dash's (the creator of phazon) showcase system. steve smith and he went balls out when they created this system. there has never been another system that could even compare to the one that was built in that space.

i will say one thing though, phazon was built for trance and prog! house and techno sound good on them, but ive never heard a phazon system sound as good as when prog is coming out of those jbl's. the sounds that came out of those speakers with s&d and pvd were incredible.

twilo's system will never compare to any other. from what ive heard fabric's is tight...but having a shortness of breath bc the bass is that intense is something you dont witness in most clubs. and its cool that the stacks are still being used (in shelter) but those speakers, and that sytem are not built for that area.

you put that system back in a place...id even say roxy, youd have something VERY special. havin howells and someone else there while they maintain that system. BURRIDGE AND HOWELLS!
arc had a very nice system. at times it sounded CRISP and others it sounded almost as bad as the vinyl system b4 it. GET THE TWO OF THEM IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

I've been to Twilo when it was still around, Stereo and the Guvernment in Toronto and I'd say out of those Stereo has the best soundsytem. Its comfortably powerful. Almost perfect. The polar opposite would be some of the monster raves they have in Montreal. Some of the loudest music I've ever heard was at those parites. Standing next to one of those speakers rips your ears to shreads and gives you the inner ear itches the next day.

Toronto, Montreal, London = not in the US for you Geography buffs.

Twilo, Arc = Closed, get over it, they're gone.

Re: Which Club has the best soundsystem in the US?

Twilo was f-ing ridiculous with their speakers, right now CroBar in NYC is hot but man o man SoundFactory in NYC before it shut down had one of the sickest speaker system I have ever heard.

Phazon's got nothin' on my old school boombox....

Re: Which Club has the best soundsystem in the US?

Jenks I know we're talking US, but any discussion about sound cannot exclude Stereo in Montreal. Built by Angel Moreas and now maintained by shorty, I believe it remains the only big club sound system that is still analogue based.

Installed in a room designed around the system (the most perfect music box i tell ya), the sound in this honestly epic. You don't get the pulse in your chest like you do with digital systems, the music at Stereo is all-encompasing. It's like it's being poured all over you. And wherever you are in the room, it remains full.

The clincher is that shorty has ensured that the booth sound is just as clean and pure as the main source. Therefore, the DJ is experiencing the same sound that the clubbers do, hence why some of the greatest sets in the world are spun on the Stereo decks (which are rumoured to be gold plated).

The first time I was at the club was also Sander's first gig there. When he came out of the booth at 10am, after a blazing 5hrs on the decks, he claimed the Stereo system to be the second best system in the world behind Sanky Soap's Phazon built system. Since then shorty has completed four upgrades.

I hear shorty could be coming to work on a club here in Toronto. Oh my would that be great because this dude is the best in the business.

Re: Which Club has the best soundsystem in the US?

Arc had the best sound in the US imo... Stereo has the best overall. Some of the clubs in Ibiza are no joke as well...

[peloquin]

can you explain the question?

er... i dont really have a basis for comparison, given that i've only been to local portland clubs.. and none of them that i've been too are THAT good really...

best soundsystem i have ever heard is at fabric (duh..)
