Personal speaker evolution

OK, so here is a thread I haven't ever seen here: What speakers have you owned? starting with the earliest, price paid, new/used, and perhaps the models that really impressed you (for the price) in CAPS.

Rat Shack Something or others, $120, new
Fisher Something or others, $280, new
ADS L710's, $550, new
Snell A2i's, $1100, used
BEVERIDGE SYSTEM 3'S, $1000, used
Martin Logan CLS, $1400, used
MARTIN LOGAN SL3'S, $2300, used

Somewhere in the mix, I've had Magnepans; SMGa, MGII,& Tympani 1D. A couple of Vandersteens; 2ci& 3s too... I'm surprised they slipped my mind, I've always liked Maggies & Vandersteens, guess age is catching up! It's fun to try and look back, unfortunately a lot of these are still sitting around here so it should be easy to recall, I tend to buy more than sell/trade. I'm a terrible pack rat!
