Bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf (Sad)

Ok, building new house wife killed my stereo ambitions with an awful built in tv console cabinet.  Room is large, there is Sonos in the ceiling and outdoor area so that’s fine for background.  She sold my B&W 802s when we moved but thinks the McIntosh stuff looks cool so that can stay.  MA352 int amp and a mt5 turntable.  I thought there was room for floor standing speakers next to the built in but sadly there isn’t room.  I can put a sub in, budget is whatever, but I don’t want want to turn 20k Focals into $4000 speakers buried on a bookshelf.  Any suggestions?  Thanks, Mark

Why oh why is it always the wives that act like the squelch on a radio scanner?!? Goodness, I hear this so often in more audio forums!, and just some of the comments I poked at in this thread, found similar remarks.

I am 70, have a beautiful home inside and out, neat, clean nicely furnished and retired, NO wife. Have audio systems in a few rooms. How many here in this camp ?

Well, good luck there ’duffy’, enjoy what you can get away with 😉 ! (it is all about the major choices we make in life.)
