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

Boy, this could be a challenge... I'm sure to leave a few out, but here goes in aprox. order starting around 1976.
Advent two ways, MCS 3ways (JCPenny's brand),Ohm C2,Ohm Walsh 123&4,Ar9,DCM TW700,BES 200?,B&W DM1400,B&W 802,Revox Agora B,Acoustat Spectra 11&22,Bozak Concert Grand,Snell A,Spica TC-50,Klipsch Lascala, & Belle,Dahlqist DQ10,M-L Sequel II,SoundLab Dynastats,M-L CLS, Quad esl57,KLH9,ESS AMT 1b,2pr.Quad esl63,Moth Cicada,KEF 107/2. Most were bought used, a few were trades, and the Revox,Kef,2nd Quad 63,Moths & the Sequels were bought new
Plus countless subs, satellites, and short staying book shelf speakers that have passed through over the years. I'm sure I've missed a few, but that's the jest of it.

Somewhere in the mix, I've had Magnepans; SMGa, MGII,& Tympani 1D. A couple of Vandersteens; 2ci& 3s too... I'm surprised they slipped my mind, I've always liked Maggies & Vandersteens, guess age is catching up! It's fun to try and look back, unfortunately a lot of these are still sitting around here so it should be easy to recall, I tend to buy more than sell/trade. I'm a terrible pack rat!
