New M3s
These are my first ever speakers, and as you can see, I still don't have anything to drive them (working on getting an Onkyo 606).

You can try talking very loud into the binding posts to drive them! They look good on your TV stand. Welcome to the world of great sound!

Very cool, eK-XL!! Those M3s look very nice in your room. Seems like the perfect size for your set-up. Oh man, nothing to drive them with yet?? How can you stand it?
Let us know what you think we you get 'em crankin'!

Good looking setup eK-XL! The M3's are an excellent match with your stand and bookshelf. Love the x-mas tree in the pic too :). Nice clean setup :)! Where are you planning putting the reciever (bottom left shelf?). Congrats and welcome to family! !!! Cheers,

Looks good, hopefully you will like them once you get them hooked up.

I wonder if you could power them with a couple of old "potato clocks"?
Seriously though, they *look* nice. I bet they will *sound* nice too.

I've got an old BOOM box from back in the early 80's that has external speaker terminals, that might work.

cool! I see you have a 360 and a ps3? What games do you play? My xbox live gamertag is "terzaghi" and my PS3 username is "terzaghi83".

Yah, not having a receiver is tough, but I've spent a lot on christmas presents and I need to wait and see where my finances are before I spend another $300+
Dr. House: Yup, Bottom left, you got it. I'll take out the component switcher too, since I won't be needing it anymore.
Terzaghi: and a Wii as well (it's a bit hidden from that angle though). Here are the games I have:
xbox 360 -------- Forza 2 Full Auto Gears of War 1 + 2 Oblivion PGR4 Viva Pinata Assault Heroes Braid Doom Geometry Wars Hexic Marble Blast Ultra Outpost Kalooki X
(additionaly, my girlfriend owns GTA4, Naruto, the new Viva Pinata, Feeding Frenzy, Uno, Rez HD, and Defender)
Playstation 3 ------------- Ninja Gaiden 2 Eye of Judgement (wish I hadn't bought this, never play it) Wipeout HD Echochrome Pixel Junk Monsters Super Stardust HD
(my girlfriend owns Pixel Junk Eden)
I no longer have a gold account though, because I kept paying for it but not taking advantage of it. I do a lot more online playing on my PC, where I play anything Valve makes. Kinda hard to justify paying $60 for a couple hours of Gears online. Especially when I find playing on the PC more fun. I don't know if you have Wipeout HD, but it'd be fun to give that a whirl online (haven't gone online yet).

I can't wait to hear how my games sound on the new system. Thanks to everyone for the compliments about our setup -- most of which we got at IKEA up in Chicago.
