Yes, the main system often seems to require too much of an "investment" to make using it worthwhile, or even realistic.

I confess I have let my mind wander in this direction:

There are others along these lines, of course, but I'm not sure one is so much "better" than another.  As for "normal" box speakers, I normally recommend the nearly-impossible-to-find-now original Harbeth Monitor 40s as "all day" speakers that do not spawn suicidal thoughts.  Although the 40s do need some power, it could probably be integrated MOSFET amps, or something like this, maybe a soft version of the new "All-In-One" source/pre/amps.

Really loading that great room is another matter, if that's what you're after...

Best regards,
