very very nice poltergeist666, how much that screen set you back :eek:

Cheers - Bought it when they first came out on the market, just before last
Christmas - £8000.

50" front? lol I thought it was a 42". how big is the one at the back then?

The one at the back is the 65" 1080P Panny TH65PX600
One at the front, is a 50" Pioneer PDP504HDE

That sub is lush! Looks like a coffee table with the glass(?) top. Love it.

Cheers - it's also the baddest, best sounding coffee table I know of. :)

what speakers are they and is that the centre thats up really high?

The main L/R's are Acoustic Energy AELite 2's.
That is indeed the centre speaker, a KEF Centre 200 - and your'e right, it's location is far from ideal. I wanted to keep the panel as low as possible, so the centre speaker position was the trade off.

But, it don't sound half bad!!!

You will note the CLD97 has the lid off and is facing the wrong way. That's because I am waiting for my new optical assembly to be returned after recalibration and repair.

The monitor in the first picture is my new 226BW. The PC case is an Antec 182 with a self made window in the door. Also there are four rears but I can only fit three in. The printer a Samsung 2250 and the PC are on the subwoofer.

This is MOUNTARRRRRRRRRRR

Finally got round to getting a wall mount, got a troy one for £60 with a moving arm and it tilts, tis nice but instructions where pot and it had 4 1 inch screws, my dad got some 4 inch ones which make it rock solid to the wall.

This is with it moved to the left meaning I can watch or play from my PC Chair which is a bonus on those non-moveable wall mounts.

If you can try to demo some hi-fi separates. It'l make you realise how much torture your ears are actually receiving from that system.

Nice tv !

erm these all-in-one cheapy micro/midi systems are ALL crap unless you go for a higher quality branded teac, denon etc. Get a cheapy stereo integrated amp and some bookshelf speakers and you will be amazed how good music will sound. I used to have a sytem liek that, then got some bassy pc speakers, now im moving up the hi-fi separates tree... Il never go back.

If you want any advice then shoot me an e-mail or post a thread in this hi-fi section, il leave this thread now for piccies.
