BrianBBY,
Nice picture. Having all the front end in line with each other sure makes cabling a lot easier. No need to run through walls or up through the floor. Very neat looking. I'll bet it sounds as good as it looks. The stand blends beutifully with TV and your front speakers. Is that your center on the left upper shelf?

Sorry for the triple post. I experienced all kind of problems on the forum this afternoon. Don't know if it was on my end or not but after hitting submit I kept getting the unable to display page error.

all my speakers are sony. i know most "audiophiles" will say oh, sony speakers are crap. but my system sounds awesome. and i havent heard anything better yet. even in those fancy stereo shops with all the padding in the room and 10,000 speakers. my philosophy is, if it sounds good and is reasonably priced, how much better than fantastic do you want? super fantastic? i'll take the sonys and save hundreds if not thousands, and i've got extended warranty through my work on everything i buy so if they blow i'll go get new ones. (i work at best buy hence the name BrianBBY)
as for the 12" sub yes.....it totally rocks. my buddy has the old model sony strde985 and all the sony speakers and his stuff sounds perfect too. this is why i elected sony as my brand choice for all my audio. and their dvd players just rule all in my opinion.
last but not least, yes that is my center channel, i didnt know where else to put it and it fit like a glove in their, so tadah.....it's new home. in the middle of the stand is a door with two shelves, which is where i put all my xbox, gamecube and ps2 controllers.
thanks for the compliments guys, i totally love my system and saved up forever to buy everything. and i updated my listing of model #'s on original post to include my speakers.

BrianBBY,
Thanks for the reply. Your right, your whole system fits like a glove. It's contained beautifully.

Many would say that you shouldn't pair Klipsch with a Sony receiver, but people who hear it says it works well. If your setup sounds anywhere as good as it looks-you should be just fine!

Nice setup ya' got there . I too became a fan of Sony when I worked in retail electronics. How is your DVP-NC665P with CD playback? Watch out on the "Meeting Darla" scene with the volume "up". Your sub may vibrate something off of a nearby shelf .
Now we'll just get you some Sony emblems or stickers to cover up those Samsung logo's...

BrianBBY- I agree with your philosophy on speakers. I think the reputation that Sony speakers have is generally due to the poor performance of their entry level speakers, otherwise magazines like Stereophile would not be giving good reviews to Sony speakers like the SS M-9 which is not nearly the best speaker Sony has made.
