I'm patiently waiting on my daughter to head off to college so I can steal her room. I can visualize a rig very similar to that along with my headphone gear in a "private space" just for dear old dad. Til then I'm quite certain I'd not get the WAF on something like that. I'm envious. Beauty of a setup. I also love that finish on the speakers. Just a wonderful look.

Congrats tkam. I used to have a pair of 22L's for stereo use and they were very fine indeed.

What do you think of the Monarchy M24 GE?

I posted this elsewhere, but it really belongs here, so:

I'm pretty happy with my HT rig since adding the HDTV. The HK gear has been great. I'm pretty sure the 635 was mis-marked when I bought it, so I got a hell of a deal on that. The DVD-47 is a great universal player with excellent upconversion with the DCDi chip. I'm using Comcast's HD box/DVR in conjunction with my TiVo due to the combination of horrible interface and low capacity of the Moto box. Though I am looking forward to Comcast's agreement with TiVo to port their software into the Comcast STB w/ DVR which will also allow the TiVo Desktop capabilities of moving shows off the recorder onto NAS or a computer. And I have a new universal remote on the way to keep everything going.

Summary:

• Sony KDF-46E2000 HDTV
  
• Motorola DCT3416i STB w/ 2-tuner DVR (HDTV) & 80 hour TiVo Series II DVR (SDTV)
  
• Harman Kardon AVR-635 receiver & DVD-47 DVD/DVD-A/SACD/CD player
  
• Boston Acoustics VR-30 front channels, VR-20 center w/ VR-10 center surround & CR-75 surrounds
  
• Adcom GFA-535 amp powering 12" sub in sealed enclosure
  
• Harmony 880 Universal Remote on the way.

Harmony 880 Universal Remote on the way.

Say WHAT?!?!?

Say WHAT?!?!?

The Moto remote BLOWS, and after juggling the 4 remotes on my coffee table, I decided it was finally time to step up. It's pretty well-regarded from everything that I've read, with a straight-forward, computer-based setup. It has fully-customizable activity macros and complete functionality for all the remotes it replaces, which is nice. And it's supposed to do very well with the DVRs, which is key.

Amazon has a great deal on it right now, and with my Prime free 2-day shipping, I figure it's worth a shot. At the price they're selling it for, it definitely seems to be a great value and offers the best balance of features and price. I'll be sure to let you know how it works out, as it should be arriving Wednesday.

Nice. I really like the look of the Quad L series speakers. I've seen that Bird's Eye finish in person, and it really is nice.

[tkam]

Yep the finish is really first rate IMO. The pictures hardly do them justice.

On another note, I've been comparing the amp section of the Marantz SR-7001 to the Rotel RMB-1075 and I've been thoroughly impressed with how well the Marantz has compared.
