Mine's still in development.

Right now:
2x Rogers DB-101 for front channels
2x Rogers DB-101 hooked up in serial for center channel
2x Infinity P-QPS Quadrapole rear surrounds
Pioneer VSX-D711 5.1 Receiver
Sony 32" XBR Console TV (~12 years old)

By this weekend I'll have ditched the Pioneer, and added:
Onkyo TX-SR600 6.1 receiver
Onkyo DV-CP500 5-disc DVD changer
Infinity P-CC center channel
Honest to goodness speaker stands ;)

After I move this summer I'll be splurging on a better TV instead of that old console dinosaur.
I wouldn't mind a Loewe Aconda 38" but I don't have $5000 laying around :p

My setup:

http://personal.tcu.edu/~djewett/htpics/index.htm

HK AVR 520 receiver
Apex AD-5131 DVD
Mitsubishi HS-U570 VCR
Pioneer CLD-504 laserdisc
Toshiba 32A41

Swan Diva 4.1 mains, Diva 2.1 rears, Diva C3 center
SVS 25-31PCi sub (The Beast! :D)

The pics are a bit outdated, I've moved the sub so it's behind the RF speaker now. That got rid of a nasty room null, and it sounds MUCH better... The TS2 opening chapter literally shakes my couch at reference level.... woohoo! :D

The next upgrade will be to rebuild the bookshelves on the other side of the room, move all my components over there, and ditch the Toshiba for a nice front projection setup... unfortunately that's gonna take a while... :(

I have the same Energy speakers, and while they are kinda big, they do a good job.

How do you like the HSU VTF-2 sub? Is it worth the money? My sub is the weakest part of my system, tho' for $100 wasn't bad at all. I dunno if I want to spend ~$500 on a sub, but I am considering it.

Love it. A friend of mine couldn't believe it is a 10" woofer. In my room (13x21') it does down to 23Hz. I got the VTF-2 right when it came out and since them they made some nice enhancements. I originally wanted the 1220HO, but I would have to pay for an amp as well. I'm extremely happy with it because it is very musical too. Worth every penny.

27" Toshiba TV (nice TV but it's an older analog set, d'oh!)
Toshiba SD-3750 DVD Player
Panasonic Showstopper ReplayTV
Nintendo GameCube ;)
Kenwood VR-6060 receiver
Boston Acoustics VR-950 mains
Boston Acoustics VR-910 center
Boston Acoustics CR8 rears
M&K V.90 12" powered sub

Pretty happy with it right now, especially for movies. Last upgrades were the center channel and the receiver, both of which I'm very satisfied with. Next up (at some point) is a rear center channel and a new TV.

Also have a second "HT" system in the bedroom... a hodgepodge of cheap speakers and castoffs from the main system. :D It was a cheap way to get Dolby Digital capability in a second room. It actually doesn't sound that bad.

19" Panasonic TV
Toshiba SD-3109 DVD player
Sharp VCR
Yamaha RX-V493 receiver
KLH L853 mains
some cheap Sony center and rears
Also have a Sony minisystem plugged into the receiver (via the headphone jack) just to play cassette tapes and burned CDs (the DVD player is too old), LOL :p
