At last I have some photos......
My Misses thinks it's nice to put family photos on the AV stand. Grrrrrr.

Nice idea to put photos up, I didnt realise you had a big black one. Got the Silver one myself when I upgraded my Kit, looks so out of place as all my other kit is black.

Of course the Receiver. I'm interested about the pre out set up you have. Does it sound much better that way?
Very nice system, Mr Nails - looks great! Very neatly done too - how do you deal with all the mains cables so well?! I've tried tie-wrapping them up neatly, but still can't hide them.
You are an inspiration to finish my set-up!

So would I be right in saying then, you can't really have 2 amps (AV/Stereo) sharing the same set of speakers UNLESS your amp is very clever like the 840 and has assignable volume inputs??
cinema also
Sorry I mean't from a stereo point of view. It looks like you play CD's via the Stereo amp, and for movies incorperate the Sony.
Do you find it better for music using the seperate amp? Using the fronts for both HI FI and AV.

Hi again Gerard
Since asking you about the 840a I managed to acquire one from RS for £500 due to their 'VIP' e-mail list (get on it, great bargains!). Thanks again for the recommendation, very happy with it and plan to link everything together in the same way you have which means I too can get FM radio from the receiver and DAB from my TV or PVR.
I was wondering where you got that nice rack from, and what's it made of? (apart from 'wood' obviously

Glad you are happy - that's a great price - mine was £480 delivered from a very nice ebay seller - it still had the plastic covers on over the display screen and was virtually brand new.
My rack was made by www.hifiracks.co.uk - you give them the dimensions you need and the wood of your choice and they do the rest! Mine is solid walnut.
Course, what do you get a man (as a prize) who has everything.........





Hi Gerard very nice, neat system. Do you have any probs with running the pre-outs to your Cambridge or is it set up differently? I tried this but couldn't get the volumes right
