Kids, Dogs, and Speakers
Check out the Focal Aria 948’s. My son has a pair with three dogs running around. No issues and the base is very sturdy. Focal seems to build nice cabinets in their higher end models as well.   
Finally upgrading my amp
You could get used Peachtree Gan400 and the PreDac (preamp) used for around 2k and be done.   
(dons Helmet, kevlar vest and cup.) Biwiring Cornwall IVs any benefit?
I have two SVS self powered subs that I connect via RCA to the preouts on my preamplifier. I wouldn’t get caught up in pinpointing a specific frequency but you could use 50-60 as a starting point. The main point for me was making sure the subs ble...

Speakers with deep/powerful bass

New Cartridge or New Preamp
