I have a reasonable hi-fi system (see signature)but I am increasingly looking for convenience rather than spending more money on marginal improvements in soundstage, clarity, detail etc.
I was looking to buy a budget home cinema system for my tv but wonder whether I would be better spending more money on a quality AV amp and 5.1 speakers with “musical” attributes and (for music) connect up something like Squeezebox and stream digital music through the AV amp.
Would such convenience significantly compromise sound quality compared with my current hi-fi set up?
If not, then what equipment would you recommend?
I would sell my existing hifi to bolster funds and have about £4000 for new equipment
