Upstage u You have a pretty sweet setup yourself m8

Merry Christmas too all, btw Steve, I love that wallpaper, YGPM

[Steve B]

cheers howard, although thats a bit expensive for me, as i can now no longer afford the Q5 fronts
im cutting the budget right back to allow me to replace the CRT's on my desktop with Hanns G's
that center looks good though.

Mike, sweet setup as always when you having a hexus meet at your house

Uchiha, the Wii is connected to the dell just using composite, as i couldn't afford to buy the component cable at the time of purchase (i really was that short of 20 quid)
it looks alright from a distance, but if you go in close, you can see the floweriness

will be moving over to component soon though, once i get the AVR too.

Mike, replied to your PM, if anyone else is interested, its Roxanne Pallet

Here's an updated pic of my setup. Just got the HD DVD drive from xmas. Looks damn good on that tv

[Howard]

I took a swankier pic, complete with new amp. That's enough purchases for now, honest!!

[Steve B]

howard, how much would i be expecting to pay for the two fronts and the centre of the monitor setup?

[Howard]

The fronts are ~£170 and the centre is about £125

Nice sets. I dont know too much about this all, no where near a HD setup yet (probably around Easter time I can afford a decent set). Are Denon a very good make? We've got a set of hi-fi speakers just sitting on a shelf at work, and they arent going to be sold, looking more like being threw away. Manager will probably let me have them for a tenner, is that a good bargain to grab? Just got a standard Hitatchi Hi-FI atm.

Also Nick, what colour are your walls? Im looking at decorating my room, and id love something around that colour.

I'm gonna post again, Howard - that's a v. nice setup. I like it cause it is clean and you can't see many cables, 'cept the one snaking down the left speaker.

You guys also DO have the advantage of not requiring any UPSes, and I have them for power isolation rather than for backup purposes. My setup is run off 4KVA in total, which is quite a bit tbh.

I've just signed up with a different local company for satellite TV (cometcable.com) so when they come to install the antenna it'll force me to get behind my setup to wire in the decoder, I plan to pull out the gamecube and PS2, which are never used!

got meself some gale 40 series floorstanders and a centre for 260 from Richer, with a 40 quid discount

will post a pic soon
