From top to bottom:
Denon DCD 1290 CD Player
Pioneer Elite SC-05 7.1 Receiver that replaced my Yamaha RX-V995 5.1 Receiver
Sony BDP-S300 Bluray Player (This player will be removed once I upgrade my Sony BDP-S300 to a Denon DBP-1611UD Bluray Player)
Toshiba HD-A1 HD-DVD Player
Denon DVD-2200 DVD/DVD-A/SACD/CD Player (This player will be removed once I upgrade my Sony BDP-S300 to a Denon DBP-1611UD Bluray Player)
Sony DVP-S9000ES DVD/CD/SACD Player
Fios Cable Box
Denon DTR-2000 DAT Recorder
The Denon CD Player may end up being removed and placed in my bedroom with the old Yamaha RX-V995 receiver. And I might also take the DAT deck out and put it in the bedroom system as well. I also might be running an ethernet cable from the router to the Pioneer Elite Sc-05 to stream music????

Denon Bluray DBP-1611UD Player is now ordered from a specialty A/V shop here in Northridge, CA called Sound Factor. Will be going to pick it up on Friday and can not wait to get it hooked up and put a movie through it!
Sound Factor used to have a couple of locations and had to consolidate to one, I hate seeing good stores not getting business while POS places like Best Buy who have crappy selection survive. If you live in the So Cal area and are looking for a place to buy your gear give Sound Factor a chance to earn your business and pass them along to a friend.

Both Sony Bluray player and dvd/sacd/cd player where removed from a/v rack today. Sony DVP-S9000 ES was pulled and will not go back into A/V rack till I can afford to fix it, player reads error no matter what format disc I place in it!!!

 

[Dave Moritz]

New Denon DBP-1611UD player just added to my A/V system
Am very happy with how fast the player boots up and how quickly the menu loads up! Picture is way better than the 1st gen Sony bluray and the lossless audio tracks sound great!

 

[Dave Moritz]

I still need to do some wire management and organize all the wires I need to have so it looks clean, think I will do that tomorrow.

 

[Dave Moritz]

To bad the Denon doesn't play HD-DVD :- ( Then I could have sold off the Toshiba player ROFL

 

[Dave Moritz]

Going to get around to troubleshoot Toshiba HD-A1 and why I am not getting a picture or sound off HDMI

I might just upgrade the old 12+ year old Polk CS100 center channel to this a Polk Audio CS2 Series II Center Channel Speaker
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882290212
And then I am thinking of two pair of these for rear speakers, Polk Audio Monitor30 Series II Two-Way Bookshelf Loudspeaker (Black) Pair to replace some Advent Marble two way speakers.

Hopefully I can upgrade the center, rear and subwoofer to something better when finances get better. But sadly this is the first sub I have had in my HT and have never used a sub in any of my home theater configurations in the past.

 

[Dave Moritz]

Not the greatest and not the one I really wanted but money is tight and for $249 on sale which was $399 regular I couldn't pass it up. I will upgrade it later!

 

[Dave Moritz]

Finally have the .1 in the home theater set up for the first time and all I need to do is to wire the rear speakers separately then the system will be wired 7.1

 

[Dave Moritz]

Currently rear speakers are still wired as pairs from when I had my Yamaha RX-V995 5.1 Surround Sound Receiver. Hope to get a 100' spool of speaker wire with two Audio Quest Forest HDMI cables in the near future!

 

[Dave Moritz]

Next major purchase for the home theater is a new 1080p flat panel HDTV!
60" Samsung LED HDTV

65" Samsung LED HDTV
http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN65ES6500FXZA
65" Panasonic Plasma HDTV

Feel free to suggest a new HDTV

I might just get this center channel to go with the sub and replace the CS100 center that is being currently used!
Current Polk CS100 center channel speaker

Possible replacement:
Polk Audio

Tannoy
Revolution Signature DC6 LCR

Finally got Lord Of The Rings EE on Bluray disc, now the question is what to do with the TE and EE on DVD. I might keep them just in case the bluray player goes in the shop?

 

[Dave Moritz]

Replacing the first generation Toshiba HD-A1

Replacing it with the newer model Toshiba HD-XA2

 

[Dave Moritz]

Can not wait to upgrade to a native 1080p 60" display or maybe even a 4K projector if I can not upgrade for a few more years. The only question remains is how much longer my original bulb in my Sony 3 chip LCD rear projection HDTV will continue to work? I purchased my Sony KDF-E50A10 back in 2005 and it still has the original factory bulb installed and still working great!

 

[Dave Moritz]

Not pictured is my old Kenwood Intergrated Stereo Amplifier and I do not remember the model number of my old Denon Intergrated Surround Processor.

I do really miss my McIntosh MX-130!

 

[Dave Moritz]

My HD-XA2 Toshiba HD-DVD player arrived from San Diego, CA today via the USPS. The player looks and works great and all I need to do is to wait for the new Audio Quest Cinnamon HDMI cable to arrive so I can swap out the cable from the Denon bluray and put it on the Toshiba HD-DVD. And test out to see if the HD-XA2 bitstreams Dolby True HD and Dolby DIgital Plus from the HD-DVD player. This was my first purchase from Ebay!

My next upgrade for the home theater has to be:
Upgrade Center Channel Speaker
Upgrade current Sony LCD 50" HDTV to a 60" 1080p HDTV

 

[Dave Moritz]

Would love to add this turntable to my system to replace a old jvc ql-50 with speed issues. If it happens this year no problem if it doesn't then it will happen when it happens!
