F12 subs in the corners, RAAL Sierra Towers and RAAL Horizon for LCR.
These are replacing a Vandersteen system that I've had for ~15 years. I plan on adding 4 Lunas for surround/back duties sometime later this year...

I started this thread 12yrs ago! Been off the radar, as life happened (aka bills, kids, etc). Have the same main speakers (340 LCR + 200 surrounds + VTF3). Still love the speakers, have only had to replace the Hsu's amp few years back. Recently added the Sony SS-CSE Atmos speakers on top of the 340s, after finally upgrading to a 65" Sony OLED and Yamaha 7850 receiver. Not an ideal Atmos setup, but works for my limited budget, and as a bonus the finish matches the 340s perfectly.

It's only been about nine years since I upgraded these from regular S1s to NrTs...

I've got my setup finalized for the near future at least after picking up a pair of Lunas on the used market to fill out the surrounds for a 5.1 system.

Re: Ascend Owners Photo Gallery
I guess you can't tell from the picture but the Horizon is angled up 13 degrees, I'm using this stand: VTI RFC RF Series Center Channel Speaker Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0007P85JG..._ahbsDb16WNZ32
I'm loving this setup, thanks for all your work developing these speakers so that people like me can enjoy them!
