V... C... R... Those things still work?

Guys, this is my set-up:

Mac Mini 1,25 Ghz (PPC) , 1GB Ram, Belkin WLAN Stick, Apple Keyboard (hidden in the drawer), Targus Wireless Pointer/Mouse (Bluetooth), M-Audio Transit USB for 5.1 digital and anlogue sound

- terratec H5 DVB-T/C usb stick

- Kenwood 5.1 Receiver KRF-V5070D (M-Transit is linked via TOS-Link)

- Philips LCD 9830/10 (connected via SVGA cable. DVI is not working due to a buggy firmware in the early MAC Minis that prevents to correctly recognize some LCD TV sets - that's the reason for this ugly cable going to the TV set :-( .Once I upgrade to a newer Mac Mini this cable will also disapear as there is HDMI cable installed in the wall)

- Bufallo Link Station NAS Drive 1TB (placed somewhere in the basement). Operated as central Media Library (Musik, Movies, Photos). (I have my CD/DVDs now somewhere in boxes in the garage instead of tucking them on the wall :-)

Here's my setup.



What it is is a Sharp LC52XD1E screen, a Onkyo TX-SR875 reciever, what you can't see is the 7.1 speaker setup with Bowers & Wilkins M-1's and a Bowers & Wilkins AS2 sub.
Then there's a HD-PVR tuner for the cable and on the right the network crap, cable modem, router and a switch.

Then there's the XBMC box itself...
It's a Cooler Master CM 260 case with a Gigabyte GA-W7AUM-DS2H mobo, running of the onboard HDMI for both audio and video and a Intel Q6600 cpu.
The box is running XBMC for Windows under Windows XP, all daily activities controlled my the Logitech Harmony remote.

Can I just ask - how do you add your pictures to the thread? I'll get my setup on here later :o

I've been lusting after b&ws since my college buddy had a set of 805s in his dorm room in like 1999. Think he had a sunfire that he replaced with a velodyne.

I got the M-1's simply because they where the best compromize I could find between sounding pretty damned good and them beeing small enough fo the wife to accept 7 of them in the living room..

Here is my setup:


Sharp AQUOS 42'' LCD
XBOX1 (soon to be replaced with an Aspire Revo 3610)
Sound receiver is a Sony STR-DG720
With a set of 5.1 JBL speakers Sat135 and the Sub (sub135)
PS3 used for gaming and blu-ray discs
HD Cable receiver
Wireless router (but I use a wired network)
Everything is streamed from my computer (1.5 TB of storage)
Wii is used for gaming (if we can call that gaming )

I also use 2 other xbox on the other tvs in the house.
