For some, the setup itself becomes a hobby to tinker with rather than a means to an end.

This is a typical setup for lots of folks. This is the average home theater.

Maybe it's because I'm not part of the demographic that wants to own a house with a basement or extra rooms in the suburbs to begin with, but I can see how it would be quite a nice setup if you already had the house, money, and interest in media.
A TV and a receiver? Sure, fine. But also the PlayStation, movie server, regular cable input, Roku and Netflix and the "Smart" features of the TV for some reason. So many redundant boxes and services.
