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

rogers LS35/A, added an audio pro subwoofer
then rogers studio ones'
magnapan which I never got used to

For last 12 years I've used thiel 2.2's.
thinking of changing -would like to audition thiel 2.4, legacy signature, sololoquy 6.3, reimer, von schweikert VR5

any suggestions?
Can't recall them all, but it's gone something like this: Aiwa minisystem w/ attached speakers, MB Quart floorstanders, JM Lab bookshelves, NHT SuperZero, Vandersteen 1, Vandersteen 2, Vandersteen 3, Quad ESL-63, Dunlavy SM1, Dunlavy Cantata, Von Schweikert VR-1, Von Schweikert VR-4 HSE, and, last but not least, Kharma Midi Exquisites.

And I wonder where all the money went. :)
Here's all I can remember

1)Tiny FM radio I bought with Newspaper route money
2)Fred Meyer (variety store) Integrated with card board boxes (it even had an 8 track player) WOW!
3)Old Zenith tube console with 15" speaker
4)Warfedale E70's, Blew em up three times with a Quatra amp
5)Scott? Huge Floor standers with top firing tweet and mids for that same dumb amp.
6)KEF Q10 second system
7)NHT 1.2
8)B&W Matrix 3E
9)NHT VS 1.4 Home Theater stuff
10)NHT SW 10
11)Sony junk speakers thrown in with a package deal on rack system. Then I threw them out.
