Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

I have spent the last 15 years with a pair of Martin Logan Aerius. They still amaze me at times. Once I finally figured out how to properly treat the room they really started to shine. Before that I bought a pair of Dhalquist dq10 in 1980 up umtill I got the ML's. They were good.
I am having the 15 year itch, so this thread is a good read!

Ran into a pair of Von Schweickert VR-7SE's a few months ago - they do everything right and shouldn't be leaving my system anytime soon. Really great speakers with no artificial built-in subs - everything you hear is produced from the speakers' engineering. Fast, musical, detailed, holographic, 3-dimensional, great bass, mids and treble, etc., etc. - this speaker's got it all.

Pass Labs Rushmores!

I will second Jebsmith73 in saying that the Rushmore's are one of the best speakers in the world. My next upgrade will have to be another 2 pairs for surround sound.

Just lovely, with a little Metronome integrated and CD player

I also have come to "re-love" my nautilus 805s when I heard them with an Ayre AX-7e integrated and Ayre CD player. Completely different from the WBs, and I think that's why I will keep both sets. USed a Proceed amp previously, and it sounded good, and similar to the Classe-BMW mix. I prefer the sound with the Ayre.

I am not a rich man so I have to make choices that I have to live with. I had B&W N804 for 7 hears. Just upgraded to 803S. Before that they were Bang & Olufsen M100-2 for maybe around 10 years.
