Advice combining recording studio with home music system

My old Harmon Kardon 430 receiver and B.I.C. home stereo speakers from the '70s are really on their last legs.

I know that my near-field monitors would not be my main listening speakers.

submliminal messages in music

Anything that I'm missing to get a full sound.

What the hell's music coming to?

Between bad remakes of great songs and rediculously loud CD's...is there anything to look forward to in music?

*Why is it so many crappy bands feel compelled to screw up a perfectly great song by putting there signature on it? Is this EGO, or are they running out of their own crappy ideas and still need to to make a record?
