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

In 74 I bought a pair of all-in-one (1)Utah 12" drivers and built plywood boxes for them. What can I say; I was a freshman in high school.
When I graduated I bought a demo pair of (2) Marantz Imperial 8's. My brother still has them.
Then I bought a pair of (3)Speakerlab 30's . . . still have them.
(4) Boston A70's with a JBL B380 sub. Still have
(5) Another pair of Speakerlab 30's. Still have
(6) Wharfedale W70D II's. Still have
(7) Nestorovic Type V's. Still have and love
(8) ADS L1590's with the PA1 amps. Still have

Still searching for audio nirvana, but can't seem to shed the ones I obtain in getting there.
