Description
I am putting the link up for my previous gallery so I won't have to post all my old pics back here. My system has changed quite a bit since I joined up here a few years ago. In this gallery I will give all the details of my current setup and hopefully my last setup. So here we go!

http://www.axiomaudio.com/boards/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showgallery&Number=212511#comments

All my speakers have the HG Rosewood finish. the setup has:
Fronts M80's
Centre VP180
Side Surrounds A's M80's
Side Surrounds B's QS8's
Rear Surround VP150
Subwoofers front l and r EP800's
Subwoofer rear EP500

Other equipment
Powering the front soundstage Axiom A1400-8
Powering all the surrounds in bridged mode Denon POA-A1HDCI
Pre-Pro Denon AVP-A1HDCI
Universal player OPPO BDP-83
DVD player OPPO DV-983H
Satellite Receiver Bell 9242
Apple TV
Monitors 60" Pioneer Kuro PRO-141FD For watching visuals
23" Samsung SyncMaster 2333HD For listening to music

That's it.
I will "suffer" with what I currently have until death us do part. laugh
Maybe one day I will get a proper HT room but not in my current house. Luckily I have no more room for speakers.

I'll have to revisit IKEA when I see my sister next. Is it pretty comfortable? Must be if you're considering getting another one.

I used to have Lay-Z-Boy chairs but felt too engulfed in them. The Ikea chair is not plush by any means but I wanted something that felt good but would allow me to hear my speakers better, if that makes any sense.

Yeah, that makes sense. That's something I'm afraid of with overly large seating.

I was secretly drooling. Sorry, but did I get any on you?

I showed my wife the pictures of your setup and she assured me that a divorce is out of the question so I'll just drool and dream about a system like yours Mel ... bad to the bone amazing!

That system must be HUGELY powerfull with the Axiom's amp running the fronts! HG Rosewood is gorgeous.

I don't think it's HUGELY powerful but at least I know if I need the power I've got it. But as JohnK says, unused power is just that unused. I have gotten my system up to -15 @ 95dB though. Does that count?
