1977: TDC bookshelf speakers, slightly shop damaged. Given to me by a Tech Hifi Bargain Center sales manager who sold me the receiver, and decided he didn't want me to wait for a pair of speakers to go with it. He GAVE these to me. I was elated!
1979: Infinity QA's. Wish I still had them.
1984: JBL 4411's. Wish I still had these, too.
1987: DCM Time Windows. Decent sounding if no finicky for propper placement.
1992: Bose 901 V. I, frankly, thought they were perfect for me at the time, since I also used them for my part time DJ service.
1995: Mangeplanar - don't recall the model number, but designed to be used with a sub for home theater. Not bad for music or HT, but not great for either, either! Also, seem to sound kind of dead in my heavily carpeted, wall-papered living room.
2001: Klipsch RF-3's. Seem to solve some challenges with my living room, while providing a nice, smooth sound for music and movies.
2003: I've really fallen for the Klipsch sound, and an in the market for Heritage series speakers: Cornwall, Forte or Chorus. Also, garbage-picked some KG-4's in need of only a slight repair job. What little gems these speakers are!
