Rate my current setup. First foray!

[413x]

So i took my first jump into home cinema basics this last xmas period and bought a lot of new kit, its finally ready to go together.

I have

panasonic 46" GT30 tv [3d]
boston acoustics soundware xs 5.1 package speaker set
yamaha v371 av receiver [3d]
HTPC [soon to be running a 6850/70 GFX card, [3d]]

I guess the sound is the weak link, i am satisfied with the sub, but sometimes feel the satellite speakers are slightly weak.
Haven't a clue how good a good av receiver sounds as ive never heard one!

ill get some pics once its all ready, atm im using my u2711 as a tv as the room the TV is in isnt setup with the 5.1

its a HTPC and i want to play some controller friendly games like f1/avp etc on the big screen, hence the gpu.
I also have 3d blu ray rips on the HTPC so thats the 3d side of GPU/receiver/TV

I wanted a 6xxx gpu as i have been testing [and testing and testing] getting the 3d side of things working! i finally managed to get avatar 3d playing in 3d on the TV from my main PC with a 6950 using cyberlink! it took a lot of fiddling with amd drivers, settigns in cyber link, then getting the sound through the hdmi and also being able to switch to stereo sound [via standard headphone jack to a separate stereo all in one setup]

lots of effort.

One thing, i am going to use my hp touchpad as a remote control with desktop display and/or my logitech mx air, which works very well. Ive got a wireless led keyboard, wireless mouse and xbox controller and steering wheel all going to be hooked up to the pc
