Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

After 9 years with my Proac Response 3s, I recently decided to change speakers. As you can tell, I'm not an upgrade fever patient. I want something I can live with for years & I think the best advice I'm gonna get will be from those who have & are still living with their speakers for an extended period of time. Please tell me why too. Thanks.Bob.

CLS IIz's with Vandersteen 2wq subs

I always think it's a boring drag when everybody recommends the equipment they own as if it's the be all and end all of the audio world. Having said that, I can tell you that i've been very happy with my ML CLSIIz's with vandersteen subs for many years. My upgrade dollars always seem to be directed elsewhere.
