Nice equipment. It seems like there may be a bit too much "toe in" of the mains. Also, I'd pull them out from the walls just a bit. These are merely observations.

Agreed on both counts.

Speakers (not all) need room to breathe and love having their own space, the sound will improve if you incorporate this basic rule.

Second, I am one of the few (along with richteer) who actually incorporates a toe-OUT position with my speakers, but that may not be the right option for you. I will say though that your Toe-IN is too severe. You are reducing your soundstage and not getting the full body of the work that is being presented. Try playing around with it an inch at a time.

It's when you turn the speakers to face the listening area, usually towards the Sweet spot.

Nice Set-Up.
Love the Time And Work you put into having wonderful wire management.
Using the Cable Raceways around the Baseboards, give a Great Finished Look and Professional Install.

The Riser for the Klipsch Sub is a Great DIY Project.
And Big Daddy Will Not Steer You Wrong. A Well constructed riser does a lot to increase the performance of any sub.

And Using The Boston Acoustics 450 Series Speaker Set is a Wonderful Addition to your System.Along with the Sony Components.

Outstanding System to Start With.You Should Have A Great Time Enjoying Time Watching Your Blu-Rays.

Congratulations.And Thanks for Sharing Your System With Us.

Its always Great to see a Members Passion for this Great Hobby.

Nice job...the Boston Acoustics look good and that is a nice sub-riser you built as well. You have a nice room as well.
