The kit we bought, our current setups

My latest system:

KEF Ci5160RLM-THX
miniDSP SHD

It took two months, but my Blade 2 Metas finally arrived from the factory.

I don't have the spikes on yet, but will do that later tonight:

KEF includes a certificate with a frequency response measurement and a guarantee that the left and right are level matched to within 0.5dB. My speakers were built in Kent by a fellow named Stewart:

The Blades are being driven by a McIntosh MC302 hanging off my Integra DRX-8.4:

The rest of the system is all KEF as well: R3 surrounds, R2c center, and Ci200RR-THX in-ceiling speakers. Probably next on my list for an upgrade is the center. I'm considering a Reference 2 Meta.
Very nice work

Those Kef are beautiful
 
This is nice, but with two large screens the middle, do you still get a proper stereo triangle? I am using a single 32" screen in the middle and others around it, but for sound reasons, I never tried to go too wide with the speakers.
Excellent question!! As you can see, I'm far from speakers, I have a seat away from the office and I use the keyboard on my lap which allows for a good triangle

Ahh the old Infinity Primus. I started my journey with those! Would be pretty badass at the desk.
Surprisingly good nearfield monitors. Wonderful resolution in the midrange. The amp is an old Yamaha RX-V461 AVR. I use the front two channels (good for 100 watts a side) and the line level subwoofer out to a Sonus Son of Sub.

Let's share diagrams (and photos) of our total physical audio system and the whole signal path, with a few words and/or links

So you're openly trying to derail a thread from the great @Thomas savage ?

Just kidding - hopefully yours continues to grow legs and hopefully Mr. Savage finds time here again soon. He is much missed.
 
@ Keith_W
the measurement is made with the seat removed but when I listen to music I am on my seat. so maybe it should be done with the seat
