First I would like to thank for all the help from this forum. If anyone still remember, I moved to the new apartment with my gf (rented) and finally got everything together. I havent got a chance to take a picture for my system but here you go.

its really my first real HT setup, I got every sound equipment (speaker+avr) in Toronto for 1.1 k CDN after tax. and wow, they sound incredible after 3 months break-in time. hope u guys like the system, im not thinking about upgrading this system now. PSW10 is mediocre but its apartment, and I feel like im not a bass fan, sub is not placed in the best spot (it sound better on the right side but gf says no:D).

    Glad you like your new system. Have you considered a little wire management?

    From the looks of it you like to game a lot. Not a bad use of a HT IMO.

    Nice start but as other's have suggested try and tidy up the wire's if/when you get a chance, it may actually improve some thing's as sometime's you get "crosstalk" & interference when everything is like that ;)

    Where about's are you in TO? I'm not too far i think? I'm only in Brampton, i don't drive but if you are ever in this part of town drop me a line and we can grab a beer & shoot the breeze if ya like :)

    Very nice! Looks like a great little system you've put together there!

    Those RTi6's are some great speakers...IMO, when used with a nice sub, the RTi6's are better than the RTi8's for 2 channel music. Much better imaging...the high end feels a bit more laid back. Some fine bookshelves.

    Nice. As already mentioned, clean up the wires and arrange all your equipment neatly in a rack. Get some type of cabinet for storage of your game controllers, headphones, and other loose items; place cabinet away from your setup, perhaps near or behind your seating area. You have a nice system, show it off with class. Then get some nice room decorations and good lighting. That room looks too sterile.
