I have been using the same home theatre setup for over 10 years and I'm looking to upgrade some of my components. My front speakers are a pair of Infinity Beta 50s. I'm perfectly happy with these. My center and surround speakers are JBL mid-grade Nothridge series- nothing great but I suppose they'll do. I do not currently have a subwoofer. My home theatre receiver is a Yamaha HTR 6030, about the same age as the Infinity speakers. It has sufficient power to run my setup. One thing I do not like is the remote which is not very intuitive or user friendly. In terms of what I'm going to upgrade first, getting a subwoofer seems to be a no brainer. I also wonder about upgrading the receiver considering it's technology is almost 15 years old.
I use my system mainly for music listening (classic rock, jazz, classical), watching streaming TV and movies. I'm not a gamer.
So that's my profile. Am I going in the right direction with purchasing the subwoofer and replacing the receiver first? Regarding the receiver, I wonder if there's something released within the past 5 years I can pick up used or refurbished.
Any advice would be appreciated.
