I'm looking to cap off my new living room setup with a decent sound system, but I'm getting lost in the maze. I don't update often, so I'm always a little behind on technology. To use with a 4k blu ray player, do you have to have 4k pass through capability? Or do they just link via the TV...

I'm searching for a decent stereo speaker setup to use as a zone 2 in my garage. Would like to stay under $200 for the pair but I could be convinced to spend more if it's worth it. My biggest concern is bass out put. With it being zone 2 it will just be a stereo setup without a sub. So what are...
