I got this:
Western Digital MyBook 2TB Premium Edition
Plus two of these:
Seagate IDE 750GB
The 2x 750GB drives are now in a RAID 1 mirror in an ancient Dell PC that will serve quite nicely thank you as a backup box. The MyBook is awaiting connection to my main PC.

That is some epic storage space you have there.

Well, it's 2x 2TB in a single enclosure with RAID0 support.Picked up 3 speakers today:
Paradigm Studio 40 v.4 (two of em')
Paradigm Studio CC-590 v.4
those three alone ran me around $2,000! This weekend I'm ordering a receiver, sub, cables, and the two Paradigm ADP-590 surrounds so I'll be out another....$2,500 to $3,000. UGH! But at least they will sound nice! I'm seriously done spending after this, I really can't take anymore!

New TV stand. It's so very much nicer than my old one. Each console has its very own shelf! (DVD/VCR and digi-box have to share). No more of this piling on top of one another business...

Ah, gotcha
👍. That's a worthwhile purchase.
I love the look of those.
thanks! I do too, I'd love to keep them without the covers on like that but I think it might be too much for some, so I'll keep it low key and hide the real beauty
Plus I'm paranoid about them so that cover is a little layer of defense for me.Jesus Christ, I want those Paradigm speakers.
What receiver and sub are you picking up?
Probably a Denon 2808 or a 3808. I'm trying to decide if 2 extra HDMI ports, 20 watts and some other minor things are really worth the extra couple hundred bucks. I've got an Onkyo receiver right now that would work but I'd prefer getting something newer and much more capable.
As far as subs, I'm really not too sure yet. I've looked at Epik, SVS, etc. but it's probably going to be a HSU sub as they are VERY moderately priced and can hang with or outgun subs twice their price. The folks at AVSforum speak very highly of them too so that's where I'm leaning. I'm already dropping enough on the speakers and receiver, I'm not trying to kill myself buying an expensive sub whose quality can be attained for half the price. My seating area isn't incredibly large so again, it should be more than enough for my needs.
