Oh boy. You fucked up kid. No acoustic treatment. Low ceiling. Seats are too far from the screen relative to its size. I can go on. Tell me, what’s your calibration process?In some ways I agree, and in some ways I disagree. For one, I listen to 10-20 hours of music a week, so my "cost per hour" on my setup is probably well under a dollar. Second, the speakers I have are extremely high-sensitivity horn-loaded design, which has a finesse to the sound which is incredible. You can tell a difference right away when I crank it up. It's not that they go louder, it's that they are absolutely crystal clear, even into unsafe levels. For someone that listens to a ton of music, that has value. Third, it's part of my home theater so they serve multiple purposes. I'm on like my seventh projector and 5th or 6th stereo system, so it's not like I didn't know exactly what I was getting and why. We don't even have a TV, so the theater is our living room.
Here, I'll show my power level and derail the laughing at consoomer culture thread even further:

Mains are Klipsch Heresey 3 and Klipsch RP-640D with Polk OWM3 surrounds and a SVS PB-4000 subwoofer with a bass transducer mounted in the couch, all driven by a Crown amp and Pioneer Elite AVR. Video is a LG Cinebeam HU810PW aimed at a Silver Ticket borderless 110" screen, using custom mounts I welded up to push it off the wall a few inches in order to mount the center channel behind the screen, driven by a HTPC mounted in my equipment rack in the other room. This is a LOT of system, and while the price isn't cheap (~20k for the whole build), it's actually a very good value, given the amount of use the whole thing sees. Nobody would ever convince me that this system is not worth it. I'm actually thinking about building an entire theater building at some point just to keep the noise out of the house.
This nigger’s spending a shit ton of money on what’s his seventh setup and he doesn’t even know wtf he’s doing. 10–20 hours a week? Rookie numbers.
