What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase?


I'm looking for a high performance all around musical speaker. My previous speakers are:

Bose 501 - I was young and they served a purpose

Infinity SM150 - terrible from the start

Boston Acoustics T1000 - actually a nice all around speaker

Polk SDA-SRS1tl - loved the full sound, not accurate at all

Thiel 2.3 - Very dry sounding

B&W N802 - perhaps my favorite, but needed to be played loud

Thiel 3.7 - I think Jim's cancer affected his hearing

B&W 802D - 1st gen, still have.....please stop my ears from bleeding

 

What do you suggest?

Take your favorite one or maybe that one you still have get a crossover speaker improvement kit for that model from GR research in Texas have it done or do it yourself to the speaker and enjoy.

it will be the best it could possibly be

hard to quantify but let’s say you could make it twice as good as it was before that’d be pretty significant wouldn’t it?

Try it if you don’t like it sell it!

So far he has improved several speakers I sent him Yamaha ,Sony and they are so good now, so much improved that I would keep them and I could enjoy them and several of these were not expensive high end  speakers.

So when you start out with something that's pretty good to begin with it's even more impressive when it brings a smile to your face instead of a frown or a headache

Yes it was worth the money imho
