This is as far as I've gotten in the last four years. I went through a receiver and a marantz pre before I ended up here. I made my own stand and am going to work on some panels and bass traps for the corners of my concrete bunker of an apartment. I think it sounds pretty good. I just wish I could get the stage to feel deeper and a little wider. I'd love suggestions on how to make that happen. I think my CD/DVD player is the weakest link at this point. I'd love to hear what you guys think about possible upgrades in the
It's a DVD/CD player that I picked up super cheap years ago. I think it might be dying, and it seems to be the weak link, so it's next for an upgrade--suggestions welcome

It is what it is. It's serving me well. I guess ignorance is bliss at this point. I'll wait for HDMI 1.3 to upgrade.

I don't know much about this amp, except that I seem to have gotten a decent deal on it.

They're treating me well. I'd love to get some floor standers, though.
Polk Audio PSW-650
Apparently I got a good deal on this, too.

4M pair for the fronts plus one for the center when the HT is hooked up. I came from Monster MCX-1 at the same time as other upgrades so I can't really say how much different they are. I like them and my friends freak out at how big they are.
PS Audio Plus
one for the pre and one for the amp. Love them, especially when hooked up to my ultimate outlet.
