    Default Hi from Jason in Oxfordshire

    Hi,
    I found this forum when researching a new AV setup to go in a new family room we're about to start building, and looking for ideas on possible upgrades to my old audio only setup that will find a new home in the "man-cave".

    Man-cave setup consists of
    Exposure XXV
    Exposure 2010 CD
    ProAc Studio 125
    Might resurrect an old AR legend + Linn LVX now this setup will be out of reach of my 3 and 5 year old.

    AV setup currently consists of
    Pioneer VSX-AX4Si
    Panasonic 50"plasma
    Kef eggs
    MJ acoustics sub
    all of which, with the exception of the 6 month old plasma, will be binned and replaced
