What a silly comment, he just needs to put the amps behind the speakers not the other way around.
Its not a dozen though, its 30
BUT clearly he has done it that way cause he loves the look of the valve amps, and who can blame him

How is spending $6m on this for this guy who's really into his films and music any different from a petrol head spending $6m on a car collection? 
Typical internet bollocks, its nearly as bad as all the folks having a dig on that guys ferrari thread because his number plates didnt look right

may be...if you only turned on a handful of the speakers. but there's no way that the sound arriving at the listener will be even vaguely phase coherant - even if you spent weeks time aligning the direct sound, first order reflections would be all over the place...
and as some-one pointed out, the amps are in front his 'front fills' or front surround, whatever you want to call them. they will act like a filter and also affect the dispersion, and phase relationship of the sound wave.
lastly, all his speakers are very low-down, with the exception of the low-end drivers in the large L/R speaker stacks. this will mean the imaging of the system would be very artifical/inaccurate, and would give the listener a sense of the audio being detached from the action on screen, even if they were accurately sync'd.
