You can only keep one pair of speakers on the list

SO, I have been told that my small collection of gear needs to go and I can only keep one pair of speakers. I will have the chance to build my collection again but for now I only get to keep ONE pair. SO, here you go guys, I would like to hear ALL of your opinions and why.
Lets forget about what I will be powering them with and so on and just hear about what you would keep if you could only keep one pair. They are all in great shape.

1. Phase Technology PC-1000
2. Polk SDA2b
3. Teledyne Acoustic Research AR9ls (with i mod)
4. Mirage 1295is

WOW, this is getting intense... I really dont want to / cant go into to the personal aspect of everything, but I do agree with all of you in that I should keep what most pleases me... (which might mean I keep all of it.. he he) but I do think that I will be keeping the acoustic research speakers and the polk audio sda for now. I will do my best to clear everything else out and start over. I might be starting over in more than just my audio if things go the way they are going.

LOL ok, so I am thinking now that the phase tech, and the mirage speakers are going bye bye. I just listed an auction for the Mirage, starting at 300... I will get the phase tech cleaned up and listed soon as well if I cant find a local buyer.

So how the heck to I make a choice between the AR9ls and the SDA2? Both of them have a unique sound, and I like them both in different ways. My thoughts are that I should be able to replace the sda2 for less money that the AR right? What are my 9ls speakers worth?

Does anyone know about the AR TSW510 speakers? There is a pair near me for 75 bucks but they would need to be refoamed on all drivers.... Worth it? Specs? Thanks
