any suggestions/recommendations like - change in speaker wire from copper to silver (hi end like van del haal/rega) will it make a difference? upgrading center or maybe front speakers? anything under the sun mga bro, thank you and happy new yr to all!

you can wallmount the tv and place the center on top of the rack so that it will be at the same height as the floorstanders

thank you sir wildfire, i was planning on wall mounting my tv and at the same time giving more space for other gears in the future.

Upgrading all speakers and receiver is always an option, but if you want to maximize your set up, you need to know first what's wrong or lacking on your present set up. so when you do upgrade you know want your looking for.

One way to maximize your system is to put some room treatments, you can start by placing an area rug, or carpet on the front of your system.

Also, is the back of your sofa a glass window? if so, putting heavy curtains would also help a lot.

Thank you sa tips mga sir, medyo bitin sa sub so i replaced it with a polk audio psw111 (small but very powerful sub), yes sir euphony i'm planning to put some curtains also on the windows (next in line ko) as with the carpet medyo pinag iisipan ko pa maloko kasi yung shih tzu ko hehehe baka kung ano gawin sa carpet.
