Nothing special, but it frames the Christmas movies I watch nicely.

Yeah, the santa hat is nice. But, you need to decorate that poster, it's about as out of place as a lava lamp. Oh, wait...

Well, the floor towers are for the stereo only. Anything from movies/TV goes through the surrounds.

You have your surrounds in front? Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

I had a friend that put her surrounds on top of the fronts. She don't think she knew what to do with them.

You decorated your home theater system? I guess I didn't notice with the hot chick in her undies. That alone gets 2 thumbs up.

i think he means those are his front right and left. i have a similar setup. Yamaha NS-3500 right and left on the A setting and Yamaha NS-555 floor speakers on the B setting. that way i can mix and match or use both at the same time, which sounds very sweet with come movies/concert dvds.

That's sort of what I meant. The floor towers are for the rack stereo alone, and there are two more speakers for the surround system (rear right & left) on the opposite wall, on either side of the sofa, not pictured. The stereo is pretty much not connected to the TV in any way...although I could increase my bass considerably for certain films by connecting them.

Oh, and by the way...the poster is Carmen Electra, and is one of my favorite pics of her; and the lava lamp was a gift from my girlfriend. Carmen's outfit and the lamp are both light purple, so there is a little symmetrical decorating thing going on there.

I'm not sure which thing you're talking about, but the thing in front is a wicker sleigh with mistletoe in it, and behind that is my TV antenna. I don't have cable (not home enough to warrant paying for it), so I bought a power antenna that picks up terrestrial HD.

Okay, good. Had me scared there for a second

Yep, Carmen is a cutie. A couple of years ago when the Super Bowl was in town there were lots of parties going on. Carmen was hosting one (not too far from where I live) and the tickets were around $150. I seriously thought of going just on the remote possibility of saying "hello".

Where can I get one of those. That'd look killer on the tree even though I am not a huge SW fan.

The Yoda figure was a SW Fan Club exclusive, I believe. It was last year's release, so it is long sold out. Ebay is your only option at this point -- search for 'holiday +yoda'.
