As some of you already know I upgraded my sound system last week.
Also I just finished re-arranging my room again to place the floorstanders in a better acoustic location.
This page lists the speakers I chose: http://www.cambridgeaudio.com/series.php?SID=27
I have:
2 S70 Floorstanders
2 S20 Bookshelf speakers on stands
The S50 centre
and finally the S90 Sub
The AV-unit (multi channel amp) i chose was this http://www.richersounds.com/product/av-receivers/onkyo/txnr509/onky-txnr509-blk
It supports internet radio and can stream on its own without the need for a second receiver, which in a few years time will be very useful.
I also took my oldest monitor (the one that was mounted slanted ont eh top of my desk), removed the stand, and have it rested in portrait on the left of my main screen to make a matching layout.
Anyway here are some piccies :)
This was during Firmware update, thought it was cool to see on a crystal display :P
