No, not that sort of entertainment! I've never had the slightest inclination to have a tv to watch in the bedroom, though of course, lots of folks do. We have a little system consisting of the following:
Raspberry Pi/Digi+ wirelessly streaming Spotify and cds ripped to a NAS downstairs Beresford 7520 dac Yamaha CR-1020 receiver (we use the FM tuner section too) Acoustic Research AR-2xa speakers
The bedside alarm clock/radio is a Tivoli Model 3
Watcha got folks?

I used to have a Yamaha CR-600 receiver and that was really good and I've heard that the CR-1020 is something else! I have a headphone based system in my bedroom. Logitech Squeezebox Touch - Streamer Beresford Bushmaster II - DAC/Headphone Amp Grado PS500 - Headphones

The Yamaha x00 models like yours, that preceded mine are supposed to be better. I can't say, as I've never heard the equivalent models side by side in the same system. I don't expect many have. Doesn't bother me one bit as I've enjoyed them both, including an 800 which I used to own for a short period. My 1020 won't be disposed of so lightly!

We have always had a TV in the bedroom, but never a stereo.

Yeah always TV and hifi in the bedroom for me. Usually the bigger TV, Blu Ray, HDD and equal or better choice of channels too. Hifi usually plays 2nd fiddle to the main one though. Truthfully the bedroom hifi is usually an excuse to keep more kit than I can use.

I've got my trusty iPad and a set of headphones for bedroom duties and that's it. No telly,no speakers nowt like that.
I'm not big on lounging about in my pit though so I've no desire for any of it either.

I usually play one last album or so while reading! before sleep at night rather than festering in bed in the morning!

Some pretty tasty amplification and expensive speakers there for a bedroom system.
