I also use an Apple airport express hooked to a stereo so I can wirelessly send music through iTunes. There is also an App called remote that works w iPhones. Wireless music is one of my favorite things about my new home. So glad I did it.

A great source for speakers is Speaker Depot. They are online. I bought my outdoor speakers there and they were high quality w/ great prices.

Invest in A Nest Thermostat. Best $200 I ever spent. I set it to go on automatically 20 minutes before I get up when its cold out. House is toasty when I get up.

I had way too many books. I donated them to my local library. Got a tax write off too.

I found a real one on Craigslist and I love it. The person who was selling it and they had to move. I got a great deal and it is always commented on when people come into my home.

I made a zinc dinning table & love it. I cut, glued and screwed two pieces of high grade plywood together and had a metal shop wrap it in zinc. Zinc comes in 8' long by 39" wide sheets that cost under $300.

You can put any type of legs you like. I used black saw horse style desk legs from IKEA that i bought for $15 each. I eventually want to make cross style reclaimed wooden legs.

People who come over love the look. Let me know if you have any questions.
