Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

Though not highly thought of in the Audiophile community,the best all around speakers I have owned(and still do) are Canton Karat M 70's.Paired with my Aragon 8008 they are marvelous!!!

Not the best but staying under my roof...

Magnepan / Audio Research Tympani II for 18 years; resurfaced 7 years ago. Interesting that the Audio Research name, which is enscribed on the Magnepan model number plate, were partnered together back then.

Janzen "Low Boy" Z 600 (15 inch woofer; dual electostats panels); mfg '63; very interesting conversation piece. Understand these are pretty rare since most people tore them apart for the eletrostat panels in the late 60s / early 70s

Nice Thread.

I have had two pairs of Electro Voice speakers since the seventies -- Senior Centurion 4's (the ones with the same components as Georgians) and Sentry III's. I will never get rid of these speakers before I die or end up living in a space that will not accommodate them.

After spending many time and resources looking for the speaker of my life, I finnaly ended up with Avalon speakers. Happens to be that I had for quite a few years their entry model (Avatar) and lived happy, until the &^(*&^( distributor appeared and offered me the brand new, highly regartded XXXX speaker. I traded in the Avalons and the nightmare began and lasted for 5 years until I came back to AValon (Eclipses now). Same relaxed, dynamic, musical sound I like.

Not for all tastes, but great for mine.
