I'm a bit of an audiophile and I love my $150 Klispch 2.1 setup in my albeit small living room, $45 Sennheiser headphones for inside, $100 JLab Epic2 bluetooth earbuds for outside. That's less than $300 and it covers everything outside of my carIt's a hassle. All jewelry bugs me. I couldn't tell you where my wedding ring is. I have a Tag and a Raymond Weill. I hardly wear either. The first chance I get I take them off. Agree with the phone -- it's always right.
I don't think Millennials care about "having a nice stereo" either. That's another sign that you are old -- you have "a nice stereo". I don't know how the high end audio business stays afloat. I guess there are still nutty audiophiles out there who get sucked into the bullshit that industry feeds them when off the shelf $10 amplifier chips provide MHz of bandwidth with near perfect linearity.
soundbars have virtually killed the home audio market
unless you go to bestbuy, or maybe walmart you're rarely see receivers, bookshelf speakers, powered subs, satellites, and certainly not center channels. even then, the selection is usually quite weak
you'll see mad bluetooth shitty speakers tho haha
Me too, i have a Yamaha receiver (newer one tho, w/ 4k HD passthrough), 5.1 surround. I don't mess around w/ audio qualityLOL - I have a yamaha amp/receiver and bookshelf speakers (actually Infinity studio monitor speakers) and my kids ask me, "what are these things for?". The funnier part is that I don't really have a good answer for them.
Suffice to say my kids are building an eBay account and that stuff will be added to the list of crap we have for sale.
Klipsch satellites or the larger towers?I'm a bit of an audiophile and I love my $150 Klispch 2.1 setup in my albeit small living room, $45 Sennheiser headphones for inside, $100 JLab Epic2 bluetooth earbuds for outside. That's less than $300 and it covers everything outside of my car
...which I just purchased and haven't touched yet. Gonna get the itch sooner rather than later, but even that I expect I'll find a lesser-known yet somehow better and cheaper brand to roll with

Literally just thisKlipsch satellites or the larger towers?
both are legit, just curious
Lol it's definitely on the low end. I used to freak about bitrate back in the day before high quality music files became the norm. Fuckin 128kbps would have me punching peopleHaha - if that's the limit of you audiophileness, then you are just fine. When I think audiophile, I'm thinking of a buddy who blew $20k on crap from Audio Research.
the nuttiest audiophile I've ever known (and he was nuts) ended up being one of the editors at Engadget. He then became tech evangelist at Pebble (the first smart watch start up). this dude was absolutely nuts about high end audio.
