MY THIEL 1.5 FLOOR SPEAKERS

Having our Audio Video system upgraded to surround 5.1 with Sonos backbone to fill the house with sound . The stereo guys want to replace my Thiel's with a high end Sound Bar which kind of scares me . I have a center Thiel SC 5.3 as well and a Klipsch Base ,does replacing these make any sense

I doubt it.  I don't know what a high end sound bar is but I'd be surprised if it could compete with, let alone beat, what you've already got.

that sounds seriously whack...a sound bar?  Doesn't make sense, I think you are right to be skeptical.

One is them is talking about a Goldenear super cinema 3d array L/C/R Passive speaker which does seem to rate highly just not sure if it is in the same league as the Thiels

Audition these potential replacement speakers prior to any purchase.
Trust your own ears. The better upgrade would be a pair of CS 1.6 or CS 1.7 loudspeakers. Backfill with the 1.5 model.

Happy Listening!
