    Nice looking set up Mr Higgins. I would try to move your mains in a little closer.

    My 2 cents. YMMV.
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    Wow.... That is very nice. I really like the symmetrical look u got going.

    Same question though, what's up with the smaller monitors? Can you watch different things on all of them at the same time?

    Ya I can do a mix of things with the multiple monitors. All three can run off the computer or I can game or watch blurays and what not on the big one and watch tv or internet on the others or vice versa.

    Dig the L+R speakers out of the corners and into the room. That should inprove the sonic characteristics of your setup.

    I thought I might show you guys and gals the other two set ups as well. These are my bedroom and living room setups. The bedroom has an older 26 inch sharp 720p with a harmon hk135 reciever and hk dvd22 player with harmon kardon speakers. It packs a nice punch for small speakers. The living room is a Panasonic th42px80u 720p plasma with a generic panasonic dvd player (got a blue ray on my christmas list for this set) and a bose 321 (My wife wanted something that would be small and out of sight so we ended up with the Bose.) Hope you all like these pics as well. Thanks for the comments so far :) Again soory abou the quality as i had to use my cell phone.
