Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

I've been using Kharma 3.2 FE Reference for a long time and only today I've decided the technology is going on and I should upgrade...with what? I have no ideea. Probably somethig expesive so I will change them in 10 years.

My speakers for life are not doing well. Have had a pair of Genesis II from Genesis Physics Corporation since 1977. They are warm, sweet and room-filling. The last couple years they "crackle" when I change volumes and make some other odd noises. Would it be worth it to try to rebuild them or are they bound for the dump? Would they even sound the same rebuilt? Any new speakers (moderate price range) that could give me a similar sound?

Right now Spica TC 60's, TC 50's and I really enjoyed the Alon 1 Mk II's. Right now the TC 60's I own have given me more joy than I ever expected. I have had $5000 speakers in my listening room and didn't last. Just in the past year I have auditioned over 2 dozen different models and still the Spicas remain. They amaze many of my friends too in my 13' x 14' room. Set up properly they disappear and give you that PYFQ that I love. "PAT YOUR FOOT QUOTIENT" You know it's right when you pat your feet, play air guitar, air drums and sing along.
