Has anyone considered rebuying a speaker you once owned??


I am curious if any one has ever considered buying a speaker previously owned and liked, but decided to either downsize or look for a "different" type of sound. 

I ask because I purchased a pair of Acoustic Zen Adagios speakers about 5-6 years ago, and decided to downsize the system with a less heavy speaker that was easier to move around.  The Adagios were 80 lbs each.  I currently own a pair Golden Ear Technology model 7 speakers (purchased in 2014)  which are smaller and lighter at 37 lbs each. The Adagios are 50 inches tall, and the GET 7's are 40inches with a slimmer profile. 

I realize the Adagios  are almost three and a half times more expensive than GET 7's. which are $1395. They can sound very good, but I have come to realize they are not in the same league sound quality wise as AZ Adagios. and  may possibly be the best speaker I ever owned.   Of course, hindsight or hindsound is a wonderful thing.    Thanks,  SJ

One real good reason for getting the .6 version of any of the MG series Maggies is that their crossovers allow them to be bi-amped; the crossovers in the .7 versions do not.

onhwy61,

That's interesting. I preferred the SP100 overall, but I don't know exactly why. Between the two, I would say bass control was the same. The 9/1 has to be the most beautiful speaker they ever built though.

I'm thinking of re-buying for secondary system JBL4333 or similar L-300 for my MAC 1900 receiver based secondary system.
