New TVs, sound systems, headphones, furniture, etc.
Pics welcome.

I am. Need a new TV and up until now I only used the TV's sound, so i'll get some good speakers too.
Just the three of us then I guess. I got a new TV, still not sure if I'll get some new headphones or not. Need to see some reviews for wireless headphones that have mic for the One first.
Unfortunately my precious Logitech Z5500 speakers developed a low frequency buzzing, I cannot bear it. Luckily, I have a pretty capable Onkyo amp my grandad loaned me a while ago. It has optical in, so that suits me. Now I just need a set of speakers. I have confirmed that the buzzing came just from the Logitechs, it's not the house's wiring.
I have a logitech G27 wheel which sits in a pile on the ground, I really need a proper set up for it. I have all the spare PC parts for a dedicated rig ... except a windows licence. Kind of need to set that up.
Fairly happy with my 1080P60 CCFL Backlit LCD TV. No plans to change there.
I think I will go for an aftermarket sound card, Asus Xonar DGX seems good for the money.
Steam controller.
Need to move from the Pentium G860 to ... probably something very fast since I'm on socket 1155. I'm thinking Core i7 3770. And shortly after that a different GPU, something like a R9 280X / R9 290.
I love my sennheiser hd558's so not upgrading headphones. i only use headphones so no sound system whatsoever. getting a new tv during boxing day
Yes I am. I will be buying a new Plasma HDTV next year before I buy the PS4. I already planned on buying a new couch, but the PS4 has nothing to do with that. I want to get a good surround sound system too, but again, the PS4 has nothing to do with that.
Upgraded my PC with
Intel Core i7-4770 3,4 GHz CPU
MSI Z87-GD65 GAMING MBO
Corsair Vengeance Pro Series 2x8 GB RAM
Intel SSD 335 Series 180 GB
That's about it. I'm satisfied with the rest.
I got an HDMI hub so I could move my current gen consoles to my PC monitor which only had one HDMI input, and I recalibrated my plasma TV using the Spyder home calibration camera and software.
I also got a Vita this past Saturday so I could take advantage of crossplay and other features.
My upgrade plan for early in the new year

Already added a Samsung 840 Evo 250GB SSD last month, then later next year I'll be sticking in a GTX880 (when they get released) to replace my GTX590, must admit I'm seriously fighting the urge to go for a 780ti but I know I just won't be happy with one.
Once that's done I'll be adding one of these
And one of these for Star Citizen

2014 is going to be expensive!
Nope. I have a Panasonic Viera plasma 1080P I got in 2009. It's still as beautiful as ever :) Ditto for my surround sound, still good. I suppose I could go to 7.1 rather than 5.1 but meh, don't really care to.
I am building a new gaming PC though. My 2007 PC has kept going quite well for playing games on "Low" settings but being very underwhelmed with 2 out of 3 next gen consoles, I think It's PC time for me, and if it's my main platform I want "Very High" settings :P
I'm expecting delivery of my new TV tomorrow, so I'll snap some pics once I've got it set up and mounted to my new racing seat.
