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

Interesting, i never thought about it, but speakers are the componet i change the least.
1. Technics Phase Linear were the first decent pair. Ran them from 1976 and to 1992! My nephew still uses them.
2. Definitive Technology powered monitors, 450s i think. 2004-2008. Gave them to a friend.
3. Epos ELS 3 with ELS subwoofer, 2005-2008. Still use them in my office system
4. Tetra 120u 2008-2013. Loved these speakers. Gave them to my son-in-law.
5. Definitive Technology BP8080ST 2013-present. Moved to huge room with high cielings (12 to 18 ft high), took a chance with these based on my earlier experience and am very happy. These really fill the space. Drive them with a B&K Reference 2220.
