Now THAT is a unique and awesome garage setup. Definitely took me back to the '70s when I was into hi-fi gear like that. Visiting my component store in New Haven (long gone now) was like visiting an audiophile heaven. When sitting in a listening/demo room, I never wanted to leave. LOL.
I'm not sure there are any dedicated hi-fi stores anymore like there used to be. Probably Best Buy is one of the few places to find components on display. I still rock old school with a Yamaha receiver and Marantz CD player and JBL speakers and sub-woofer. I also have a Harman Kardon receiver that I hooked up to the tv. I believe Harman doesn't even make components anymore. I'm looking to get a turntable in the next few months.

I'm shopping for a whole new system. The sound bar and satellite speakers just don't cut it for me. If I replace the sound bar system with a proper hi fi system, not only will I get proper sound during movies, but I'll also enjoy listening to music again.
I had a nice setup in the old house. B&K receiver, MK speakers blah blah blah, but the display went out in it and the wife didn't want a big bulky receiver in the living room. So that system is now in the garage.
Been looking at a Yamaha receiver. Not sure what speakers to get.

Ive been pretty happy with my SVS stuff, I bought everything from their outlet on holiday sales. Might be a tad more $ than some others but the 5 year warranty is nice, customer service is excellent and you've got a free trial window where you can return it for a refund or get full credit towards an upgrade.

I have two Klipsch R-112SW's I'm wanting to replace with some SVS subs. Which did you go with?

the pb-2000s (before the pro were out). They're nice but of course you always want more. With the limited space I have the best fitting upgrade would be the cylindrical 4000s but for the same price I could probably get the sb-16s. I just havent been able to convince myself to spend that much extra coin.

you can try FB marketplace and such, SVS will honor the remaining warranty and you can confirm it with the serial number. People frequently list them too high compared to the outlet deals but every now and then you see a deal. I got an ultra center in gloss black for $400
