At last......

TV - Samsung UE55C6005

Amp - Onkyo TX-NR609

Blu Ray - Sony BDP-S370

Fronts - Mission M73

Centre - Mission M7C2

Rears - Mission M70

Sub - TBC!

Cable - Not worth mentioning

Only been set up a couple of days, but really enjoying the sound so far....

I can't post the pics directly to here (I'm obviously too dull!) but you can scroll throuth the pics from the one url below.

Cheers to anyone who's given me any advice during the (long) process of choosing the equipment.

RE: First AV System

Cheers for the comments!  The missions I bought as a bit of an impulse purchase!  I live in north Sweden and have been keeping my eye out for second hand speakers for about a year.  Ideally I would like some B&W's or Dali's but saw this package on a free ads type site for, what I thought was, a reasonable price (remember, it's Sweden!) and snapped them up.  The amp I decided on, admittedly, due to reviews and Spotify functionality (no chance of a demo up here!) and the TV I did manage to compare with a couple of others and thought it was head and shoulders above them.

So yip, this is me for now.  Going forward, possibly a projector (Mrs will do her nut!) and at some point, upgrade speakers.  When the right deal comes along.

Cheers.

RE: First AV System

Yeah, could have probably gone bigger with the TV, but the 60" ones I was comparing this Samsung to, didn't look as good to me.  As far as 7.1, I probably will the next time I upgrade speakers.  Just happy to have a (half) decent sounding/looking room at last!!
