What vintage speaker might you use today

My bedroom system uses a pair of (modded) hafler 300 speakers (http://www.hafler.com/pdf/archive/Model_300_speaker_man.pdf) and in my living room I have a pair of Ryan Acoustics MCL-3. Both circa 1980's I believe.
I'm very happy with both.
in my music room on the other hand I have 2015 speakers :-)

I'm using a pair of circa 1989 Klipsch Chorus II's as my everyday main speakers.  I found a mint pair in oiled oak on craigslist a few years ago, and refurbished them with new crossovers and horn diaphragms.

They might not be the most "accurate" speakers ever made, but they do some things amazingly well.  Great speaker for classic rock, and big band music on vinyl sounds amazing.

Vintage gear is good for nostalgia trips and the audiophile on a lower budget (in fact, very good for them), but not great for building superior audio systems. 

But are they appropriate for people who aren't building extreme or superior audio systems, but instead want to listen to music?  Ancient loudspeaker theorists would argue YES!!!

I have tannoy hpd 315 drivers from i think 1976 in new custom made cheviot cabinets. These are outstanding speakers. Very much the opposite of modern hi fi and for that reason many may not like them. The sound is sweet, musical, with great presence, soundstage and texture. I was surprised that nelson pass uses these in his personal system. They seem to have a cult following but arent mentioned much on this site or in magazines.
