Speakers to hang on to for LIFE


After 9 years with my Proac Response 3s, I recently decided to change speakers. As you can tell, I'm not an upgrade fever patient. I want something I can live with for years & I think the best advice I'm gonna get will be from those who have & are still living with their speakers for an extended period of time. Please tell me why too. Thanks.Bob.

I had Polk Monitor 10 for ten years. That was my third upgrade. Now I upgraded to B&W Matrix 802s3. Probably keep them for the next 10 years. Just trying to upgrade the home theater to all Matrix speakers. Then Just upgrade the 'tronics. Click on system for the rest.
Still love my B&W Matrix 802 series 3 I think Ill Hang on to them for a long time. Best Ive heard, And Im in an Audio club on Long Island where the median system is 30-75$K They hold there own. Also still have my Polk monitor10's in my BR for the second system those are Lifers. 15 yrs old now, as good as new, in looks and sound.
Possibly my B&W Matrix 802 series 3. Thinking of upgrading to the Nautilus 802, but might consider getting outboard xovers first. I have the stands so not much to push the envelope. Have a Classe DR25 and ARC tube linestage. Im very happy with the sound and have heard the N802, but never thought they were much better. Cant afford the Diamonds yet. 8 yrs with them so far. Anyone know where I can get the outboard Xovers
