Don't worry, I cased the joint while I was there and you don't have anything I want!
edit-- on second thought, those UREIs would look nice in my TV system...

Where are your Altecs?
Oh, the Altecs are upstairs in the living room with my 2 channel tube system -
Taking measurements to install connector cups and considering installing wheels.
I'm currently using some JBL L212 speakers I rebuilt last year, and have an old pair of Von Schweikert VR-4s on the outer edges.
That system is a Jolida 502 CRC integrated amp, Carver tuner and (ancient) Oppo DV981 disc player -
Plus a Denon Dp-45 record player I bought new in '88, and an Airport express so I can stream lossless files from the macpro in my office.
Roughly 60w/ch from a quad of Gold Lion KT-88s
