What type of speakers/receiver should I get to maximize Sports?

Wired for 5.1 Surround Sound but I need an upgrade from the chitty Yamaha package I bought from Costco years ago

Room also has an opening, no door… if that matters

TV is a 65” Bravia


Want to hear sports/big booms/big hits

what's your question brah? as mr. tendonitis said a sub woofer is prob what you're looking for

you could spend a lot of fuken money on this chit so its hard to advise

on the low end bic f12's and or bic acoustech pl-200's are good

svs pb1000 might be good

hsu is a good company
rhythmik
outlaw
monolith
jtr
seaton sound

all those have various prices. from 500 to 5 grand

Like what brand and style produce the best sounds?

This cheap Yamaha set I have from Costco (5.1 with Subwoofer)isn’t that great…. Which brand/price do you notice a big difference?

SVS are very popular

They have both ported and sealed

PB-1000 is a great starter subwoofer

Receiver - either Denon or Marantz

Speakers - There's so many good brands that each brand produces a signature sound

If you want Bassy speakers then DefTech is the way to go. Martin Logan, KEF, Bowers and Wilkins are great brands.

Polk Audio makes good affordable speakers.

More exclusive include Focal, Seaton Sound, Wilson, Pardigm, PSB, Magnepan, Hyperion Audio, Aperion Audio, Salton Sound, Legacy Audio, Revel Speakers, etc..etc...

Get a couple big boi floorstanding speakers, you'll need a receiver too though.

Get something half decent and you won't even need a sub.

Sony is garbage

Pioneer actually makes good receivers
