N NicolasKL Full Audioholic Aug 1, 2008 397 0 28 Sep 11, 2009 #1 Posting my old system in the hopes that I'll be updating in about a month with my new system (which should be my old system in a new location + a front projector). Also bought a Samsung BD-P3600, mostly so I don't have to stream netflix from my HTPC which my fiance whines about the process of firing up. She whines about the PS3 BD process too since I lost my IR dongle and haven't bothered to replace it. I actually replaced the 61" Samsung DLP with a 55" Vizio LCD already, as I didn't think it made much sense to have an FP in the family room and a RP in the living room, so the 55" will get wall mounted and hopefully be less obtrusive than the DLP would have been (I probably should have gone with a 42" for the living room, what can I say, I'm a junkie). And the PC room: The X-LS/X-CS/X-Sub/Marantz has been replaced with Ascend HTM-200SEs, a Hsu VTF-1, and a Denon 1709. The size difference made a huge difference in placement which was much needed (mostly for the center, the HTM is now much easier to tilt down towards the user and I also have room for my receiver on one side of it and my printer on the other):

Click to expand... They're Intermezzo 4.1ts. 30-20kHz +/- 1.5 dB, 23-22kHz +/- 3 dB. The electronics can be a little wonky on them but they're a seriously good value on the used market and the electronics can be repaired if problems do crop up.

I was looking at the infocus X10 but the offset may be a deal breaker. I don't want to spend too much right now as I'm going to be doing a ton of home remodeling and I want to get the PJ right away and not feel guilty about it. I may upgrade in the future, but I think I'll be happy with it and won't feel particularly compelled to.
