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.

I agree with Nocaster, I have different speakers and components in different houses and even different systems in the same house. I would buy the Boston Accoustics A200 speakers again today although if you could find them I'm sure $3,000 would be a good deal. I've had them hooked up to a Hafler and together perform better than anything else I have ever bought. They are high end.

I'm still using JBL L212s I bought in '79. But I built new crossovers, Couple-Charged, the same type of crossovers used in JBL's top of the line Everest and K2 models. That design keeps the caps operating in class A mode. Also added spikes to the bases, which didn't exist back then.
But I also have the latest generation of the L212, the Performance Series PT800s, that I use in the HT, and expect to use them for many years also.
