Harry you've got a couple of serious 2 ch systems not to mention the Ford GT and Ferrari 9...is that an F40?  What electrostatics are those in your picture?

JBL     

Has anyone here heard these DD66000s?  I'm thinking the 66000 must have something to do with the price  :duh:

No, haven't had the pleasure.  Although the low-end response of this 96dB 312 lb. behemoth with 2 X 15" woofers seems a little high at 45Hz (-10dB @ 32Hz), I still think it probably has a lifelike dynamic presentation that might put a smile on your face.
 
In 2009 the MSRP was $60K - $70K depending on finish.  Here is a concise review from Home Theater Shack Forum:  http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/speaker-reviews/19743-jbl-project-everest-dd66000-loudspeaker-review.html

I have pictures of nice cars. The Ferrari pic was at the Ferrari museum in Italy ( way fun).
 Thanks for the compliments on my systems, but I have been in this hobby for 45 years! The stats are mine. From what I know, one of four sets made of this size. They are just HUGE with Koa wood rails. Love at first sight.
 Drove them home in my Ferrari ( just kidding)

Coke eh?...as in the soft drink or the processed coal I'm hoping.  Your speakers are Salks right?  That's one heckuva cabinet.

You got me beat Harry.  I bought my first system the summer of 1969, a mere 42 years ago.  If we are counting my brother's Dual 1019 TT playing through my Admiral clock radio, then it's 1965.  Either way looks like we are charter members of the audio old farts club.
