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

Ohm Model H's in 1980. Then changed to Nestorovic type 5's 1983. Now using Hales T8's, puchased in 2000. If the economy ever straightens out I will be looking at Verity Sarastro, YG Kipod, Vandersteen Model 7's, and a few others to put on my short list.
