I already had made an argument for them. However in an apartment a bass array has far more chance of a successful implementation and likely less obtrusive. Uh huh..... yeah, we have nothing at all but space in an apartment, space and money for 4 s... 
How to control sound on TV/monitor via Apple TV?
PC monitors don't have any sort of remote control built in, and often don't even have speakers.

Eric, as the OP has a set of speakers that retail(ed) for about $8-10K USD, I think it is fair that true quality is his goal. He is also in an apartment, so you really want to avoid modes as that can increase the noise transfer to your neighbo... 
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss
It was quite arbitrary, so what? In particular it was because I hear a lot of Pass fans who talk about it as a closed ecosystem as if no other amp exists and I was very curious to learn about how they got there or left. That's the privilege of the... 
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss
The premise of it all is very funny...."So why on earth are you enjoying your Pass amp so much?" As Greta Thunberg once said - "How dare you!" If that is your interpretation of my original posting three_easy_payments I have to say you are readi...

Thank you again to everyone who participated in this thread. As I’ve said before, I am particularly grateful for those who can share specific experience as to what they’ve tried, and what worked and did not work for them. Those types of insights, ...

End of the World system
If we have well-dressed zombies, we should plasticize them and use them for furniture.  
Is there a difference in sound between a coax cable and an optical one?
In theory, optical is better as there can be no chance of ground loops. Ground loops CAN manifest in the digital and analog domains. In the first, it can produce significantly more jitter, and was for a time a significant source of issues with PC/... 
Quarantine Project--A Full Range Speaker Kit
Couple of related ideas:  Use a mid-tweeter, non high end like from FaitalPro or Peerless as single-driver speakers.Seas also makes a number of very interesting coaxial speakers I've been tempted of trying as surrounds.
