Anyone see the show Designer Guys on HGTV? They were redoing a basement for a couple who wanted a media/playroom for their family. The title of the episode was called "Family Viewing", produced in 2005.
To cut to the chase I noticed immediately that the guy and his wife had some Axiom's in the room. On top of the RPTV was a vp150(due to its obvious shape) and next to it was either the m50's or m60's. Looked like they were finished in Boston cherry. Also had a Denon receiver powering the speakers.
Anyway i thought it was interesting considering what you usually see (in terms of audio on these home improvement shows) are the typical Bose's and B&W's. Never thought I'd see speakers from an internet direct company. Pretty cool!

I'm surprised my Wife didn't alert me to that, as that network and "Style" are on all, all, all day long! ...and often times the "We" network as well! Uh,.....wanna guess the real reason why I got into headphones lately? Actually I think I know why She didn't call me. A few months ago I made what I thought was simply a witty comment about what "H' and "G" stood for in HGTV. Instead of "House and Garden" I postulated that it had more to do with the orientation of the majority of the cast members. I guess She took me seriously.  Rich.

Never heard of a "dob" before tonight...Is that some kind of new breed or something?
The room was quite nice as you would imagine. Roomy enough for a bar in the back too! The only problem was the placement of the surrounds. They were hidden behind curtains/drapes  to make it wife friendly. 
Rich, I'm aware of the orientation of some of the cast members. Not that there is anything wrong with that!  I wasn't watching anything special today anyway, just flipping the channels around and couldn't help but notice the speakers when I landed on HGTV.
That being said, I've seen much better home theater rooms on this site anyway. A select few of you guys have really got some spectacular digs. You know who you are!

That is to funny, I wish these forums had a spell-check as you type feature. I think I was thinking about In-N-Out Burgers and replaced the G for a B or something like that. ha ha Or possibly I was inquiring about your DOB or something, or maybe it was just late and I needed to get to bed.

My father referes to HGTV as the "Paint Dry Channel" - D
