Default My very humble setup

I am 23 year old student and I just bought my first house and I'm on an extremely tight budget. So this is my setup for right now, hope to keep adding to it as the money allows me to.

Please be kind.

Very nice.
Can you provide some system specs (speakers, receiver, etc.)?

One thing I'd recommend is to pull the speakers away from he wall (and aim them toward your primary viewing position). It'll improve your acoustics significantly.

It will be a night and day difference. Not as echoey and boomy.

Default me too

I am not a student anymore, but I also just bought my first house, and am in the process of moving in and arguing with the fiance about how the living room will be laid out. And on a side note, you shouldn't be too worried about your setup, just from being on this forum for a short time it's apparent there is always going to be someone with a more kick ass setup than your own.

Because it's the humble thing to do. when I post mine all call it "more awesome then superman, batman and the hulk combined".

If you ask my wife, she would use the adjective "obnoxious" to describe it.

SO, I think I should rename my thread title as 'Lou's Obnoxious Home Theater.'
