My main speakers are B&W N801, up until recently I also had a pair of Yamaha 1000M speakers, 33 years old. Of course I prefer the N801 speakers, but are they worth nearly 10X the price of the Yamaha's? Probably not. The Yamaha speakers have a unique, very revealing sound.
I can still remember hearing a pair of Klipschorn speakers at a HiFi show 35 years ago, they sounded truly amazing, the most dynamic speakers I have ever heard. Similarly, as one poster commented, JBL L100 speakers still sound great on rock music.
So in answer to your question, there are some amazing sounding vintage speakers still available. At the end of the day it is all down to personal preference.
