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

1975 - AR-3a
1985 - JSE Model 1
1998 - Coincident Conquest
2003 - B&W Nautilus 804
2003 - Coincident Total Victory

All were bought new. The JSEs and the Coincident TVs have impressed me the most

The JSEs are still in service - gave 'em to my brother-in-law - and the TVs are so good I'm not sure where I'd go from here.

After 30 years of upgrading I finally upgraded to a 50 year old speaker. It's the one I should have started with.
