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.

A vote for the ATC speakers. Many many years in the market have seen only slight changes in design philosophy. The famous custom build soft dome mid range still is among the best money can buy.

Tbg,

Referencing your 9/15/12 post, I was finally able to acquire a pair of Wright Sound WPA 3.5 SET monoblocks to pair with the Altec 846A Valencia's. I now see (hear) what all the fuss is about with zero feedback flea powered amps! I've been playing jazz and vocals and the bass produced by the Wright-Altec pairing is more than I had anticipated. A lot of "air" around instruments and lots of detail. The music is more palpable, textured and visceral.

A whole new world! I'm liking it!

Since I have my original pair from 1980, still playing everyday...

My choice would be the "Pioneer HPM 100!" Taking on all genres at all volume levels. Just can't part with the heart!!
