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
BEVERIDGE SYSTEM 3'S, $1000, used
Martin Logan CLS, $1400, used
MARTIN LOGAN SL3'S, $2300, used

4,JBL L100 Likedem.
5,mag 1.4
6,mag mg2c's
7,and present Klipsch rf 82
Started out with nice little KLH. Moved on to classic Advents. Tried some locally made Chicago Speakerworks. Finally got dream speakers (at the time) ADS L810s used. Got tempted by NHT, but added Klipsch subwoofer to ADS. My son blew the ADS up listening to Magical Mystery Tour (I'm so proud!). Now have Focal JM Labs Electra 906 with Klipsch sub. Love the sound.

Still want the big Magnepans; remember lusting after Acoustats [sic] in Chicago. Are they still around?

the rustler
Hologram, 1,500, demo
Voce Divina Soprano 2,500 used
Eggleston Rosa, 9,900 new
Kharma Ex. 1D 87,000 new
........and maybe Altec lansing Vintage horns with double bass 15", Ebay,$275
I look at that list and imagine your income rising at a correspondingly steep rate. Or did the hobby just get the better of you?
