Personal speaker evolution

Dayton Wright XAM 5 way speakers from 1982 to 2004 were fantastic with quality electronics. Still very good but finally made the change in 2004 to Anthony Gallo Ref 3 and a revamping of the whole electronics system for the umpteenth time!

2005: 2 systems, Zu Druids on one, Zu Definitions on another

The Zu speakers are the most relaxing and alive that I have ever listened to, and the Definition specifically is what I've been looking for over 3 decades. However the Druids have their own charms and I appreciate both.

1) Polk Audio Monitor 10B
2) Polk Audio S10
3) Polk Audio Monitor 10B -- bought them back!
4) Monitor Audio Silver S6
5) Magnepan MMG
6) North Creek Music Okara II Upgraded Project
7) Polk Audio LSi15

I absolutely love my LSi15's. I found a mint pair for sale locally for $750. They're so good that I am now off the upgrade merry-go-round (I am an audio enthusiast on a beer budget and couldn't be happier).
