Just my 32 in Samsung TV and my Turtle Beache XP500. Would love to update to a new TV but this one is still rocking.
 
Mitsubishi 65" rear projection that we got a decade ago and still looks pretty solid, though it only does 1080i rather than 1080p (or even 720P). Gonna have to finally break down and get an HDMI-DVI cable for the DVI port in the back for the XB1. Don't remember the model number of the receiver but it was a Sony and came with a 5 disc changer DVD.

What wire are you using for your 360 to the Mits?

If its not VGA...You will get a decent increase when going HDMI/DVI.

They're component cables, so we're getting the 1080i with no problem other than the fact that it's a crapload of cables. Looking at having a house built next year though so hopefully we can use that as an excuse to get a new display.
 
I have two 46" inch Samsung TV's. One LCD one LED Smart tv. Both 120 hz.

The LCD actually has amazing PQ. Better than my newer LED.

No stereo setup. Just my Turtlebeach phones that I hook up through the TV.
 
It prob looks better because the Sammy being a edge lit led.

I'm just using a 720p 50" Panasonic plasma, a 10 year old Pioneer 5.1 receiver with Cerwin Vega speakers and a Polk 10" subwoofer.
 
I was actually thinking of this today, and I might hold off on buying the console and upgrading my other HT stuff. My 50" TV is Old. My Speakers are more like antiques. although my old REL quake Sub is still firing on all cylinders. I still like my Budget Sony DH810 A/V receiver though. Speaker wise I was thinking of going with the Q acoustics Q7000i speaker package. Has gotten rave reviews from pretty much every where, and at £900 is nicely priced.

TV wise, unsure, but most likely a Panasonic Plasma.

I was thinking of axioms great price and user reviews. How do you like them?
 
I love my speakers. But I got them about 8 years ago I think, they were just under $1000 for the towers back then and now they're $1120 so they're not quite the value they used to be and there's probably a lot more options for speakers in that price range now.

If I were looking to upgrade I'd probably be checking out Paradigm and others. Thing about good speakers though is they stay good and should probably last a lifetime so I'll be sticking with the Axiom's.
 
The photo is crap but I love my setup.

X1 will go on the far left near my router, PS4 will stand with the other consoles on far right.

Everything is interconnected. Consoles, PC, they can all work off each and every monitor (inc TV).
