Looks great. Thumbs up. You have got one of my favourite amps, I love the sound the VSX-LX70 makes, did you demo with your speaker package before you bought? I can't quite work out how you have a silver stand on the Pioneer LX5090, I have just got one myself and I never saw a silver stand available to buy, there were just two both black, also I can't see how that stand the way it looks can fit on a Pioneer LX5090, are you sure you have a Pioneer LX5090 TV? If yes, what stand do you have then?
Cheers.

Hi Benny
I thought the stand was from the 7th generation, and it fits - blimey, I know people have put the 7th generation stands with the 8th generation TVs, but did not realise it could be done with the 9th generation - useful to know. I don't know about you but I love the picture on Blu-ray, with the Pioneer BDP-LX71 and the Pioneer LX5090 - really great.
Cheers
