Since you’re asking about knives I definitely recommend just about any knife Spyderco makes and they really are the best at serrations.
BUT to cut through plastic straps, the best tool you can possibly have is this tool. It’s small and cheap and slips into just about any pocket. Also great for cutting and stripping wire. I frequently have to cut thru thick 24” zip ties and this really The best tool for the job.

Hi, I actually had the exact same dilemma as you and about a month ago went for a 2.0 setup.
In the past I've tried a variety of computer speakers and nothing cut it. I never tried a soundbar, but I am super happy with my 2.0 setup.
So here is my $200 set up (big thanks to Zeos for helping me learn and pick out the parts):
$109 manufacturer refurbished Denon AVR 1513 receiver:

This is the wire stripper I bought but it is no longer available for prime so I would get a different one:

Maybe get this one (but any will probably be fine):

Lastly, banana plugs for the wires. Optional, but nice to have ($10.96):

Total: ~ $250 with tax and shipping and whatnot.
One last piece of advice:
I originally tried the popular Lepai amp and hated it. I just couldn't get the volume I wanted from it.
You can get tools to specifically cut cable sheathing. If it happens to fit one of the sizes in the tool below.

The more versatile option is the cheap wire strippers with an adjustable stop. I used them a ton when I was a kid. My dad loved them for some reason.
