Nothing new here. Same pics as from the other forum. The only change is that I’ve re-attached the passive crossovers, although I’m still running the active. I decided to take the BillD approach.

To the front:
Sunfire TGA-5400, 4 channels bi-amping
Carver AL-IIIs



To the rear:
B&K Reference 200.2 S2
Klipsch Heresys
 
 
To the starboard side:
Sony TC-KE500S Cassette
Onkyo DX-7555 CD
Panasonic DMR-ES30V VHS/DVD-Recorder
Behringer DEQ2496 EQ
Behringer DCX2496 XO
Sunfire TGP-5
VPI HW-19 Jr. w/Audioquest PT-6 tonearm/Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood MM Cart
 
Still my favorite record-maker:

Okay, one new pic. Got this from the in-laws for Christmas. I think they're onto me. Anxious

Nice set up Harry fan, is there a center channel under the TV? or is the fifth amp on the 5400 unused?
What kind of speaker cable are you using to the fronts? I also have the 5400/TGP5 combo and love it.
Beautiful clean looking room!

No center channel yet, Perry. No sub either, so I'm basically running HT in 4.0. My HT setup is nothing to scream about, as the Klipsch's aren't really a good match for the AL-IIIs. But I'm very happy with the sound in 2-channel. As you say, the TGP-5/TGA-5400 combo is really sweet.

I'd forgotten I'd changed the speaker wires since I took that pic. That white stuff is some Monster Cable crapola I had sitting around. I've since replaced that with plain old 12 ga. copper stranded.
