Just a quick suggestion regarding stands/shelves :

I don't know if it would fit in with your décor, but sturdy shelves on wheels would allow you to reconfigure at will (or when you move to a new house, get a divorce, etc). They are also really nice when you have to get behind a system that's close to a wall. Anti-Vibe and uncle-Crosstalk can be dealt with directly under each component.

Once I get everything else done, I plan to build a serious rolling rack; the current setup is not really able to suport the weight and roll correctly. Should you decide to go this route, use a shelf(s) with a footprint-to-height ratio offering good stability when rolling on carpet... do not skimp on wheels; they need to be seriously stout; if the floor has thick carpet, go for large diameter wheels.

Good luck with the new installation,
