Buy yourself a used system; integrated amp, DAC and bookshelf speakers (possibly a sub). Don't put those Klipsch speakers in a garage.
Enjoy the music without concern over the system.

Stereo In The Elements
Over years I have accumulated a few leftover pieces of equipment. I have a detached garage that I am tinker in and I'd like to put a simple stereo system out there. My question is if a stereo can weather well in an uncontrolled garage environment. It certainly gets cold in the garage but I haven't felt it get overly hot. With that said I wouldn't be working in the garage in the dead of winter - December through February. Therefore the operating range would be 40 degrees at the coldest to 90 degrees at the most (I have my limits for manual labor). However the equipment would not be removed from the garage outside of those temperatures. The setup would be permanent.
Current setup would be:
Klipsch Heresy speakers
Chip Amps (Clone or Gaincell...whatever you prefer)
CJ Premap (yes with tubes)
The source will be a DAC (not owned yet) and some sort of streaming device (Auralic/MicroRendu/etc). Must be Roon Ready.
Basically I don't want to kill equipment in 3-5 years, but I am OK if they are a little worse for the wear in 20 years.
