The sound of a ps3 starting up is an orchestra warming up.

What's your favorite console start up sound?

Also, what's your favorite classical piece?
>>
I'll start: PS1 for nostalgia.

Clair de Lune has been my most favorite

Any variation of the Sega Genesis startup sound.

not to sound like a FAGGOT but I really love the sound of turning on the Wii and hearing that lovely weird music fill the room
fav ever is Beethoven's moonlight sonata mvt 3. that shit still blows me away after all these years

Eh, it's kinda annoying most of the time. I only use my Wii anymore for Netflix. When it turn on its always blaring compared what was on before.

PS2 used to kind of scare me
it was really cool how there would be more towers the more games you played, and they'd get higher with the amount of data for those games though

PS1 and Dreamcast by far. Saturn and PS2 get honorable mentions. Everything else is forgettable or stupid.

Gamecube startup is easily my fave. The memories are just so good. Plus holding down Z to change it was awesome.

there are three versions of the startup for the gamecube. The standard, one where you hold Z(rubber/squeaky one) and a second hidden one you can access by holding Z on 4 controllers at once(it's the sound of two wooden blocks being hit against each other)

I don't blame the song for it, but I'm tired of hearing it because I've heard it in every song. Plus, while there are certainly exceptions, most baroque music is too crude and basic for refined gentlemen.

They tell only what to play. The conductor makes sure everyone play evenly and loud enough for it to create a harmony intended by the original composer.

The conductor is reading (or has memorized) the entire score, so you look to him for tempo changes, dynamics, and for cues as to when to start do you don't have to count like 57 measures of rests.

No because the concert hall is build for acoustics and what the people playing hear is different from what the listeners hear due to the sounds converging.
