Altec Lansing MX 5021 from 2007 (Shoutout to TE mod Masky help me procure it). Still running strong, I use them primarily to listen to Lo-Fi, Chillwave, and 80's synth-wave genres of music and they have kept up pretty well with barely any wear and tear. At 7k, the speakers have paid me back a couple of times over. I'll continue to use them till they last.
Edifier C2 2.1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Edifier-C2-Speaker-Satellites-amplifier/dp/B001385KIU
Best ones you could buy under 4k at the time. Bought my first set around 15-20 years back, picked up 2 more since. I don't think they're available anymore.

Used to use a pair of Edifier until a few weeks ago. Its an ancient system that i picked up almost a decade ago and worked fine. Lately though, there is a bit of weird wrabble coming from it so I have picked up a cheapo iBall Raaga 2.1 until i can get my Edifier repaired of replaced. With the lockdown in place, things are a bit tough to get done.
Off topic- could you dm me your chill wave and synth wave playlists if possible? Thanks

I have my PC and NUC hooked up to my TV and HT. Movies and Gaming experience is great. I have a mixed 5.1.4 setup with speakers comprising of Definitive Technology, Polk, SVS and JBL all hooked up to a Pioneer AVR.

Using Logitech z623 since 6 years. Bought for around 5k at the time. Currently retails for around 10k.
The subwoofer went dead this year. Spent 2k to get this fixed from local electrician.
Sound quality is good enough and loud. Bass is really good. I use Equilizer APO to make them sound more natural and vocals centric.

I remember TE members recommending 5021 back then. I was in college, borrowed cash from dad to buy them. Best investment ever!

I use Panasonic HT30 which I bought for 4k around 5 years ago. They are quite powerful though they suffer with the same problem with anything else in this budget - muddy bass which makes understanding movie dialogues a pain.
I used them for both TV and Gaming. Not gonna upgrade until they give up.
On the other hand, brother uses a Polk Audio Command sound bar which costs a lot by my standards but I can definitely make out why it goes for that price. High end audio is a worthwhile investment.

I'm using a very old Edifier 1250 mini speakers which I bought for 450rs. I actually bought two, one after the other. I gave the first one to my uncle and I really liked the speakers so bought another one for myself. If possible I'm just looking to add a sub-woofer to it.
Same for Logitech Z623.
Indeed, extremely popular model.

You could always trade in some of your nice headphones for a pair for decent speakers
Anyways, currently using a pair of Edifier S2000MKIII's i recently bought. Upgrading from my old Z623's which my dad has taken a shine to as his movie speakers
Using the HiVi Swans D1080Mkii+ bookshelf speakers since late 2018.. Cost me around 14k at the time.

Have Sony HTIV300, have been using it for 2+ years. Supports major audio formats (except 7.1 True-HD Atmos and Dts X). Connected it via HDMI-ARC with my 4k TV. Bought it for around 19k from Reliance digital during Republic day sale. No plan to change/upgrade it for another 2 years.
Note: The wire connector behind the receiver is unique. So upgrading wire's gauge will require some planning as that connector is unavailable outside.
