I have a pair of DCM Time Frames on the 70” TV in the family room. Thanks to MI 
Mitch for pointing them out to me on eBay or CL (I can’t recall which one) so I 
could snag them.

A Denon AV receiver drives them and handles all the switching between the TV, 
Apple TV, BluRay and OTA inputs. Can’t recall the brand of subwoofer that’s 
used, suffice to say it does the job.

We had a Bose surround sound system in a former house. I was never impressed 
enough to bother with the surround sound stuff (much less, Bose speakers) so 
it’s just basic stereo with a subwoofer here.

Several good speakers can be described that way, including the DCM Time Frames 
I use in the listening room.
I have a bi-amped (through a Richter Scale crossover) subwoofer to handle the 
lowest octave.  It dates from the
early eighties, and is rarely turned on.  As is the stereo, these days.

Our main listening, now, is through the AppleTV and the Panny plasma TV.  I 
tapped into its speaker
drivers years ago, and have a pair of Radio Shack Minimus 7 speakers hooked to 
it.  Those are, and
always were, surprisingly decent for their size, availability, and price.

Sidetrack: most covers of classic songs suck.  This is one that I think is 
considerably _better_ than
the original:
