Just re-did the HT in my apt this weekend, after debating going high end all around, i decided to save some money, piece together a decent HTIB type setup and save the extra 2 grand and get a nice 2 channel tube setup for my bedroom/listening room. The apt living room is about 150 square feet so big speakers aren't needed. Got the setup below plus stands and an oppo dv-980H plus all the new cables i needed from monoprice for around 150 and i'm loving it so far. Probably be picking up a vp20 or vp30 soon.

Receiver - Onkyo TX-SR605
Front L/R - Mordaunt Short Premiere 302
Center - Mordaunt Short Premiere 304C
Surround L/R - Mordaunt Short Premiere 302
Surround Back L/R - Bose 4001
Front Sub - Mordaunt Short Avant 907

Rest of the HT consists of:
HTPC - for OTA HD and DVR cababilities and video/music streaming
xbox 360
wii
Pioneer cld-704 laserdisc player and lexicon ldd-1 ac-3 demodulator

TV: Viewsonic 32" LCD running at native res through the HTPC and 720p for everything else

Projector / Screen: Home built PJ currently at 720p will be upgrading to 1080p soon, have the parts just have to put it together. 120" Da-lite high power screen.

will get some pics of the new setup up soon.

Since i'm just about done with my 2nd PJ build i decided to get some pics up of the HT.

I live in an apt so space is at a premium, though since it is a 2 bdr. it is a decent size. I belive the living room is 17x12 (lxw)

So far this is what is currently in the room, most is pieced together from stuff me and my roomate have had before and during college, definatly not audiophile stuff since i can't afford what i would love to have. I'll get model numbers later.
