Nice set up, you can not go wrong with that SX-3700 Pioneer. The SX-3600 was my first Pioneer way back in 1980, loved that receiver. Looking good jedijoy13!
 
The 3700 is a nice receiver. I picked one up for my daughter a few years back and she really likes it. You have a nice setup. Thanks for sharing.
 
Nice start in the quest for audio nirvana- Once you're hooked (and I think you are) the journey will continue.
The sky's the limit....Good luck. Enjoy.

Looks good. Those Polks are a nice speaker & the use of the PN-50 as a center is a very nice choice. The Pinnacle's are so underrated...

Very nice setup. I have a pair of the Polk Monitor 7C's (and Monitor 10B's), and enjoy them tremendously. You might try moving yours off the floor on some speaker stands for improved sound reproduction. Polk originally sold them with stands that were about a half a foot off the floor and angled back a bit. Here is a link to a thread on the Polk web site with details:

The Pioneer SX-3700 is a real looker too. It is definitely on my short list of receivers to keep my eye out for.
 
Thanks for the encouragement and info. The best part about the SX-3700 is that it was free. I was talking to my former roommate about wanting to get my stereo setup and that i wanted to go vintage. Apparently his mother-in-law didn't really use it so, she offered it to me in exchange for throwing out her speakers that didn't work anymore. Upon further Inspection, I just couldn't throw out the speakers because they are Genesis (what i believe to be model 1). So i got the receiver, Genesis (With deteriorated foam and one cone separated from the spider), and the JBLs for free! I plan to refoam the Genesis and give them to my friend or let him refoam.
I knew about the Polk being sold with stands and am always on the lookout for stands and grills, but i may opt for just selling them as the Cantons are awesome speakers as well.
