The 12 Priciest Pads In The World!

12. Updown Court Surrey, England – $55 Million

Updown Court is a 103 room palace in Surrey, England that at one point in time was the most expensive private home for sale in the world. After the original property burned down, a developer spent $40 million refurbishing the house from scratch. Updown Court features a heated driveway which reportedly cost $4 million to build. It also features five pools, a bowling alley, a movie theater, 8 car garage, and two penthouses. Annual maintenance will set you back $2 million per year and requires a full time staff of 12 or more people.

11. The Spelling Mansion Beverly Hills– $85 Million

Producer Aaron Spelling created shows like 90210 so it makes sense that he would build a sprawling mansion in Beverly Hills. After Spelling’s death, his widow listed the property for $150 million and it eventually sold to 22 year old formula one heiress Petra Ecclestone for $85 million. She paid in cash. Tori Spelling’s childhood crib features 123 rooms and covers over 56,000 square feet. It’s the largest private home in Los Angeles.

7. The Pinnacle Montana $155 Million

Owned by real estate developer Tim Blixseth and his wife Edra, this $155 million ski lodge is based in Montana. The well-heeled couple could get lost in their 10 bedroom home. But they’d never get cold because every floor is heated, including the driveway, according to CelebrityNetWorth.com.

The Blixseths also own the Yellowstone Club, a ski resort that only billionaires can belong to.

6. Elena Franchuk’s Victorian Villa $161 Million

Its price tag is a whopping $161 million. But given that this Victorian villa is located in Kensington, South West London – a plush part of Britain’s capital – it’s no surprise. Its owner is Elena Franchuk – a Ukrainian businesswoman and philanthropist. The property was originally a girls’ prep school. Now it boasts 10 bedrooms, a swimming pool, panic room, a theater, a sauna and a gym.

Those houses..... Holy crap on a stick

People have too much money

PSN: Rcp_soundz

Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps. The higher the more amperage it pulls, this is what I look at.

I'll stick a 300 amp fuse in a potato and sell it to you for $2k.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.
