Showcase pimping

Hi folks, Although I don't post a whole lot, I have been around here for quite a while. I have learned tons from the people here.

I finally created my system showcase: Zacgo's system

I would love any feedback you care to offer - comments, suggestions, etc. As you will be able to see, I really struggled to figure out where to place my surrounds in my oddly shaped family room setup.

My next major upgrade will likely be an amplifier for my main HT. I hope to buy that within a year or two.

Cheers.

    I use the OmniMount CCH1B shelf. You can get it at Amazon or Best Buy for around $30. It's rated to 30 lbs. which is approximately the weight of the CSi5. It's well made and is very stable.
