My first speakers were Genesis Model 1's that I bought with paper route money in 1979. They were amazing speakers for their price point. Built in New Hampshire and modeled after the BBC school of speaker design and engineering, this was a period considered the New England school of design which was pretty much the same as BBC in the U.K. I wish I still had them. Paper drivers didn't last long but boy could those babies sing with my Technics receiver.
I got lucky and owned B&W DM602 for about 10 years. At $600/pair, I'm not sure if I've ever heard speakers that liked to party like these at any price point. These were my very favorite speakers. I now own much more expensive and better gear, but nothing will ever connect with me like a cheap NAD integrated with cheap 90's B&W monitors.
