DVD: Denon DVD-5000
Pre-Amp: Denon AVR-5800

Speakers: Atlantic Technology 450e THX System (4 rears for EX/ES)
EQ: Rane THX 44 Equalizer

I used to have this Mirage, what a great
unit. Amazing it uses 8" drivers -- it
smokes many larger subs!

I feel like a loser:
TV: Sharp 25" stereo (biggest needed upgrade)
A/V Receiver: Kenwood VR-2080 (No problems yet!)
CD Changer: Kenwood 200 disc
DVD Player: JVC
Recorder: ReplayTV 30-hour model
Speaker: MB Quart speaker package (best part of my system)
QLC404 fronts
QLC-center
QLC204 bookshelf surrounds
I also need a subwoofer (probably an 8" Velodyne) to round off this system. Hoping for a CRT projector system someday...
See ya,
Barry

Here is my first HT system which I put together using money from my first college co-op. I am only 20 but love both home and car audio.
DVD Player: Toshiba 2109 (Component Out)
Reciever: Sony 555ES
Television: Toshiba 27"
Speakers: Center - JBL S-Center
Mains - JBL S-310's
Surrounds - JBL S-26's
Sub - Acoustic Research ARS500
Everything hooked up with Rat Shack cables (No need to WASTE money on better cables).
