Very nice indeed! It looks like the new setup might sound better as well with the subs and center channel in different positions.

Thanks guys. Mary, it does indeed sound better than before. I think without the hard boundaries it has open the sound to a new level. We are quite pleased.

Attractive re-do, Rick. What's the function of the small speakers(Hsu VT-12s?)in the setup?

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

John, that is the surround set up. Not placed in the best position but room is at a premium and the M80s win out. Yes they are the Hsu VT 12 system.

Rick has been watching "Hometime" on PBS. Looks great my friend. Why don't you use the 80's for the left/right instead of those little cubes?

I'll stick with the M80s in 2.1 mode, I like it that way. That is my system and no one else uses its but me. The other one is for everyone else.

That's a great improvement! Except for one thing. You really only need a half watt .

I understand, then if I can make one suggestion, you might want to toe them little speakers out just a bit.

Yeah it is, keeps the dust off when not in use. There are also covers on the M80s when not in use. I understand, then if I can make one suggestion, you might want to toe them little speakers out just a bit. Suggestion noted but I'll pass on it. They sound great in that position.

Very nice, Rick. I like the equipment racks a lot.
I take it you are satisfied with the Ventriloquist system for HT use?
Looks comfy. I'll bet it sounds great. Cheers!

Nice room! Looks like you did a pretty good job of removing that wall unit air conditioner. It must be a lot quieter now listening to those M80s. Did you think about removing that window behind the TV too?

Reciprocated, Rick. I still have hopes that, one of these days, somebody will have an Axiom GTG (get together) somewhere, and sometime, when a good number of us could attend.
