Picked this up for free.

Is the receiver a Sony STR-VX4? Lower on the wattage end. Just find some good, efficient speakers and it will sound great. Klipsch R-40M would be nice I bet if you have a limited budget. ELAC Debut 2.0 you can find good deals on Amazon.

Recommendations for passive tower speakers

I've been eyeing the Elac Debut 2.0 F6.2 towers for a while, they manage jazz and rock really well, and they're way under budget for how much you get.

Lore Reference setup I’ve had for past few years. I’m looking to upgrade my dac though as that’s also the dac I use for my headphone setup in my bedroom.

Amp: Denon PMA-600NE DAC: Topping E30 Speakers: Lore Reference Yamaha CD player I know I don't have the cleanest or sleakest looking setup but I think it sounds fantastic. I've been into hifi for about 5 years or so. These are my 2nd set of speakers. My first set of hifi speakers was a pair of Elac

Smart my new place for 2026

on the audio routing question, yes it's doable but the answer depends on how you get audio out of each TV. HDMI ARC only carries one source at a time, so if you want to pull the TV's current audio (not just the apple TV / shield feed) into other rooms, the cleanest path is an HDMI audio extractor on

What was the biggest turd, "Hi-Fi" system you've ever heard?

Elac Debut 2.0. People were raving about them but to me they sounded muddled and lacking any sort of treble. Instantly hated them. On the upside, it quickly convinced my partner at the time to up the budget to a pair of Harbeth C7-iii with a Rega amp.

What's your equipment viewed as "outdated" you still think hasn't been topped in the market or is special?

This is more on the budget end of the spectrum, but I’m still using my OG Elac Debut B6 and the OG UB5 pairs I bought about a decade ago when Andrew Jones first joined Elac. The later iterations improved the materials and bracing, but dollar for dollar, the first Gen Elacs were designed to make an-i

How to recreate this experience?

You will want speakers set up correctly, and you to be sitting in the main listening position (MLP). Diagram attached. Elac Debut 2.0's are kind of relaxed listening room fillers vs. say the UB5's which create a precise soundstage (but are harder to drive - 4 ohm speakers). From a Google comparison:
