Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

Magnepan owners tend to stay with their speakers for a very long time and when (or if) they change speakers, it's very commonly an upgrade within the Magnepan line...

Sold my old Klipshorns for theil 3.6,s regreted it for the past 10 years.Awaiting Usher BE 20,s hope I won,t be dissapointed for the next 10 years.Are there others out there that make stupid mistakes like me?

I shoudl add and join the Sonus Faber Guarneri, I will hardly let them go.

I also have kept a pair of KEF104/2s since 1986. These later versions do not have surround foam deterioration problems, can be bi-amped or bi-wired, have 92 dbl sensitiviies, and cannot be matched for sound quality by modern speakers until one reaches the $12K+ range. I do not use the Kube. For a more modern sound my Dynaudio Confidence 1 pair are present, and will probably be kept for 20 + years if I am around that long!

Magnepan for Life...that's me.....

Tympani 1D system for 30 years then upgraded to 20.1 system....why...I have listened for 50 years to all kinds of systems.....bottom line I feel more into the music with 6 ft towers or room dividers feeding me info...Box speakers tend to let me know they are box speakers...

Maggies on the other hand dispense music in all directions just like musical instruments...while box speakers emit music in one direction.....

Thus my perception that Maggies creat a more accurate musical experiance....

That's my 2 cents
