Took me long enough but here are some pictures of our chaotic soon to be painted family room. Very much a work in progress design wise. The first few are of my old HT speakers.

Rick's HT

Meanwhile I am in love with my Axioms. Still can't believe how good they are!

The Axiom team have actually performed alchemy. They have taken base materials and made audio gold. Absolutely magic!

Looking good, Rick! Congrats on the new speakers.

Lookin' OK. Sounding fantastic!!!!!

Nice set up Rick.

BTW we share the same birthday.

Thanks. I need to upgrade my old Sony RP Tv and my receiver They are both about 7 years old. That's going to have to wait. Need to save some coin and slowly wear down resistance from the wife. Persistence is key!!!

I would put the center channel on TOP of the TV if I were you as it would produce the most realistic center soundstage in that position.

Congrats on the new speakers, enjoy them.
