Seeing as I've been visiting the forum for quite a while, I thought I'd post up the system that I'm currently using. The fronts are KEF Model 105 Series II (dating from the late 70's), the centre speaker a B&W 800 series HTM, the rears are Tannoy i6AW's, and the subwoofer is a M&K VX-100 (all mid-1990's). The receiver is a Denon AVR-2802, with a Thorens TD-126 MK III turntable, Pioneer DV-360 DVD player, and a Pioneer PDP-436XDE plasma TV.
As you can see the room's in a bit of a mess. I've had to move the hi-fi rack around from behind the TV and I've got to get some longer cables. Also my dad is reorganising his record collection and is re-doing some shelving in the room.
We got the KEF's quite recently and they've replaced some old Tannoy Lancasters, which are currently sitting in the dining room. They're going to have to go up on E-bay sooner or later. It's a bit absurd that the M&K subwoofer's driver is actually smaller than the KEF's own 12 inch woofers.
I thought an interesting feature of the KEF's are the built-in LED's, which you can see in the third picture. Unfortunately the previous owner had the 'S-STOP' circuit for them removed, so they no longer do anything. They were designed to assist in lining up the tweeter/mid-range 'head' towards the listener and to indicate if there was an amplifier overload. This required use of a knob on the back of the speaker to select the power of amplifier you were using.
The centre speaker stand is a pile of books. I'm not really sure how to get a proper stand that small. It's probably less than a foot high.
