Subs for SF Amati
How about a pair of Martin Logan Balanced Force 210’s, instead?  
Best in wall speakers
The JBL Synthesis system is pretty serious.     You could also look at the Phase Technology Darts system as well as the James Loudspeaker offerings.    Both are handled by custom integration firms so you would have to find dealers in your area.   
Sonus Faber Grand Piano or Totem Forrest?
Zombie thread record?  
Your experience of moving to two subs
In our last house, I had 2 subs and it was fantastic. Everything was improved. The only hard part was spending considerable time integrated them both properly with one another and the room.    
Is it time that Klipsch Heritage marketing a subwoofer?
With todays driver and amplifier tech with dsp, a dual-opposed 15” arrangement in a sealed enclosure wrapped in matching veneers to compliment the Heritage line would be a winner and marketable, imo.   
Small satellite speakers
Used and ultra compact:  NHT SuperZero Infinity Modulus era (Peachtree) D4    
Mini Bluetooth speaker for outdoors... recommendation-seeker...
I was going to suggest the Marshall Emberton. I have one in my garage and it’s great. But not for $50.    For $50, I’d just look for something used on CL or FB Marketplace near you.

Ok!  
Thanks to Paul McGowan
Badhippie, it’s easy…..everything is racist now. Didn’t you know?  
Integrated Amp Shopping Decisions
Just a touch over your budget would be the Rotel RA-1572mkii. I have the 1570 I bought as a stop-gap piece a while back and it turned out to be way better than I thought it would.  I really enjoy it.   
Martin Logan Descent i Subwoofer Not Working
It might be cheaper and easier just to purchase another one rather than looking for all those parts and doing the repair.   
LOUDEST Concert and Tinnitus
OzzFest 97. My ears rang for a week afterwards.    I had a pit ticket so I was right by the stage for most of the day with the exception of Pantera. I let a buddy use my ticket when they were on and I was on the lawn dodging bodies from the crowd...
