Best Vintage Speakers for Classical & Jazz music

Quad 57's have a following when nicely restored. I have various Altec's but I will sell those before I part with my two pairs of 57's!

Good choice of a TT, arm and cartridge! I have the same setup as one of my vinyl playback systems!

Any reason why anything in the system must be vintage?  Also, what price points are you looking at and what other requirements do you have (e.g., what electronics does it have to match?).

Have you refurbished the W60 crossovers and level controls?

@jasonbourne71 which Altec's do you own?

@pdreher : Bolero's, Santana 1's, Segovia's and Stonehenge 1's. Previously had Valencia's.

JBL L300 sound great on anything but Jazz especially. Hard to find but worth it. 

I love my Altec 19's with Jazz... not so much with classical.

Advents were the thing back in the day. But, if you have the right situation, nothing compares to Magnepan for what you listen to.

What do you consider vintage - age or popularity? I'm a big fan of the Valencia speakers but one of my favorite "vintage" speaker for acoustic music is the Shahinian Obelisk. Properly placed in the proper room there are few speakers that will reproduce a live performance soundstage as accurately. IMO. The disadvantage is said "Properly placed in the proper room."

For all around listening I like any classic JBL monitor using constant directivity horns. I had a pair of L200 T3s in my living room for years, which were the residential (cheaper) version of the 4425 studio monitors and featured the (in)famous baby butt cheeks (or Dolly Partons) wave guides. They are large and have low WAF but they are easy to drive, full range and just sound great.
