How old are your speakers

I purchased my Aerial Acoustics Model 7 new in 2001. They are my primary speakers that I use regularly, and they are without question (at least in my mind) the best audio purchase I've made.

The speakers in my main rig are going on 13 years now and they would be the Alon Lotus mk ll's with AlNiCo tweeter upgrades. I've gone thru 2 woofer rebuilds but since they're the 14 ohm option woofers that is something that must be rebuilt and not just replaced as they are no longer available. Absolutely no reason I can think of to upgrade. Yes I hear all the newest offerings from high end speaker manufacturers but none really match the ultimate musicality, resolution and soundstaging of the Lotus'. I also have a REL Stadium lll augmenting them so it's a true full range system but the Alon's totally disappear as sound sources and let the music speak.

my 80s polk model 10 ($100 on craigslist) are one of the very few pieces i'd be unlikely to part with. likewise my ads 810s.

I think about 4 years (Vandersteen 5As) and before that it would have been 16 or 17 years (Snell CIVs, which I still love). And then, before that, DCM Time Windows (gave them to one of my best friends), and before that JBL L100s (wish I still had, more out of curiosity at this point), and the very first, Radio Shack Realistic something. To me they all sounded great when I had them, an improvement over what came before. Gee, maybe that applies to most things in (my?) life.

I love my B@W Matrixs 800

they broke the mold with these truly sick speakers.
So so far ahead of their time.
Mine continue to amaze me every time I listen to them.
