Hi Dave, welcome to HTF! Judging by the pictures, here is how I would rate your home theatre:

1. HDTV proudly playing the Canadian National Anthem in 1080p, +4
2. Choice of curtains, -1
3. Paradigm Monitor loudspeakers, +7
4. Items and books on top of loudspeakers, -1
5. Childrens toy in front of door, potential tripping hazzard, -1
6. Receiver lacks HDMI inputs, -2
6. Hardwood floors, +1

Overall rate: 7

Calling any room with a 42" display a home theater is really pushing it. IF, you're sitting 5.5' or closer, then you might be OK, but of course, your speakers would have to be set up approriately as well. It doesn't look like either of those apply.

As a Home Theater: 1
As a Small Living room set-up: 5
As a bedroom set-up: 8

Looks like my set up at home but I use bookshelf speakers. Very nice!
