Personal speaker evolution


OK, so here is a thread I haven't ever seen here: What speakers have you owned? starting with the earliest, price paid, new/used, and perhaps the models that really impressed you (for the price) in CAPS.

Rat Shack Something or others, $120, new
Fisher Something or others, $280, new
ADS L710's, $550, new
Snell A2i's, $1100, used

An update to my initial post back in '03. Just when I thought I'd never get rid of my Revel Salons (Gen I), I heard the Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 8s. So in chronological order, here goes:

Okay. Here is a list of the speakers that I have owned starting with the current set:

- Wilson Watt/Puppy 8s
- Revel Salons
- Legacy Audio Focus
- Legacy Audio Studio Monitors
- Polk M5's & M3's

Over the last several years my system has completely changed 6 times.

Lastly with the Watt/Puppy 8s:

DCS Delius DA converter
DCS Purcell DA converter
Audio ReQuest F-Series Media Server CD Player
Audio ReQuest IMC Video
Synology DS201J Network Storage Device Tweak
Richard Gray 1200S Tweak
Grand Prix Audio Monaco Modular Rack Stand
Grand Prix Audio F1 Carbon Fiber Shelf Tweak
Grand Prix Audio Apex Footers Tweak
PBN Denali Mono Amps Amplifier

Firstly with the Watt/Puppy 8s:

- Classe Classe SSP-600 Surround Pre
- Classe CDP-300 Video
- PBN Sierra Denali Monos Amplifier

With the Salons:

- Levinson 390S
- Levinson 33H's

With the Legacy Audio Focus:

- Meridian 561 pre/pro
- Meridian 596 dvd/cd player

With the Legacy Audio Studio Monitors:

- Meridian 502
- Meridian 506.24

With the Polk Audio Speakers:

- Yahama DSPA-3090 pre/pro & 7 channel amp

And I am still evolving. However, the speakers are forever remaining. I would ultimately like to end up with a dual purpose system where both music and movies are enjoyed. That'd bring me full circle.
1979 - 1983: Ohm type H
1983 - 2000: Nestorovic type 5

I bought the Klipsch KG3.5's back around 01. It was buy a pair for one sale. Think i paid around $500. I sold them once i moved from Tampa in 04 and went without a audio system until last year when i bought a pair of Klipsch F3's used. I also bought a pair of RF82's and traded them for a pair of RF63's . The RF63's are great in my bedroom setup.

I would like to try a pair of RF 7's next.
