Personal speaker evolution

OK, so here is a thread I haven't ever seen here: What speakers have you owned? starting with the earliest, price paid, new/used, and perhaps the models that really impressed you (for the price) in CAPS.

Rat Shack Something or others, $120, new
Fisher Something or others, $280, new
ADS L710's, $550, new
Snell A2i's, $1100, used
BEVERIDGE SYSTEM 3'S, $1000, used
Martin Logan CLS, $1400, used
MARTIN LOGAN SL3'S, $2300, used

Boy, this is painful:

1992 - present: Bose 4.2

I need to graduate and get a job so that I may be free of these things! Just starting to scratch the surface on what my next set of speakers may be. I aspire to own a pair of Thiel CS2.4's, but I'm not sure if I can live with the Blose long enough to save up for the Thiels!
