haven't had a chance to make it across the atlantic yet, but for me, I have never heard music with more body and clarity than the 90,000watt pK system at the Village stage at Shambhala in BC.
heres a little youtube clip of the set up:

and obviously Club Love in NYC. hitting the sweet spot in that place is surreal.
so i ask you DSF, what are the other absolute meccas of bassweight around the globe?
specs/info on the systems would be greatly appreciated.

Nothing stands out for me but honestly the sickest venue would be Room 2 in Matter. It's nice small space in there, the dance floor fucking pumps you with bass so hard. The sound is so amazingly crisp. The best sound system I've ever heard full stop. Dubstep would fucking kill you in there.

funktion 1 with a good engineer... to bring the best out of it
anyone can throw some F1 together and play music thru it and go "woooo funktion one" but it has to be processed/engineered correctly... if done so it can sound so so good
void audio kit is again very good if engineered properly (see DiRT soundsystem)

Lots of sick rigs out there, but i'm adamant these guys make the best rigs i've heard

go listen to some funktion ones after hearing any of the void touring series and you prob won't be as impressed.... tho they're still good speakers i should add.

simply the legendary setup at thcell back in the days !
7kw in a livingroom sized concrete chamber ....
pure sickness! blurred vision, no chance to breath at a bass drop and still it sounded brilliant and damn warm.

I know everyone slags it off, but valve does it everytime. For some reason you don't get the same distortion that you get with the drum and bass.
Nice creamy bass, crystal high ends. Perfect
