Dual SVSound 16-46 PCi subwoofers.Pioneer Elite VS-01-THX receiver as a preamp with Parasound HCA 750A and HCA 806 Amplifiers (Bi-amped fronts).Media Center PC running HDMI and Coaxial Audio to the receiver (AMD X2 6000+, 4GB ram, ATi HD2900XT).Pioneer KURO 50" Plasma TV tops it all off.Needless to say, this was a BIG investment... but the end result is wonderful. I'm just as happy listening to music in 2 channel as I am watching Blu-Ray in 5.1.... The TV is beautiful, there's no other word for it.If Logitech made a harmony remote that interfaced with Media Center in Vista, that would be the icing on the cake.

Then I've got a Set Top Box (IPTV). Also, I have a 32" LCD Sony Bravia telly, that they are connected to. I haven't got any externals speakers for it, though I don't need them as the telly has great built-in audio. That's my (cheap) setup. I love it.
