2. speakers

You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which?

Thought experiment:

You run a store which sells used and new gear from any point in history.  The catch is you can have exactly 2 brands.  One of electronics one of speakers. 

Defunct brands are OK as are those current with long histories. 

What brands are they?

Joseph Audio

Devore Fidelity

Two brands that, to my ears, do some things, especially timbre and tone, "so right" and yet do it by sounding so different.

Dahlquist and NAD.....  I think these would be reasonably affordable to any schmo.  And great sound for the buck.

Excellent thread!!!!!!! I’ve started similar by asking what amp sounds good with my current speakers, but this thread should answer everybody’s.

For me, for fun:

Snell and Tandberg

Excellent styling and performance, and I did hear them both together, but I am very curious about Snell with Luxman to be honest but I never heard that combination.  With so many tube amps in their history so I think I’d absolutely adore trying out vintage 35W/Ch tube amps as well as the big SS beasts of today.
