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

Rectilinear X1 traded for a Fender Bassman head/bottom
SAE Mark X (traded for a Tandberg 330 Cassette Deck)
Dynaco A 25 XL (used as a back channel in a quad configuration - I'm really dating myself here!)
Bowers and Wilkins DM2 - 300.00 (new)
Home brew IMF Monitor (350.00)
Burhoe Acoustics "Blue" - 200.00
Original Advents with fried egg tweeter - 100.00 used
Kef 105 Series One - 1000.00
Dahlquist DQ10/mirror imaged with matching subs 1200.00 used
Acoustat Model Ones - 1000.00 (part of a package deal including Sonic Fidelity monoblocs and all interconnects and speaker wire)
NHT Model 1.3 (300.00) system severely downsized
Epos Model 14's including heavy duty stands 800.00
Shahinian Obelisks with updates - 1300.00
I will be sending my Obelisks in for reveneering so who knows what I will use in the meantime - I would like to experiment with B&W DM6's or Ohm "F"'s. (I currently have the room and the power available to drive these properly)
Neat thread - it brings back alot of fond memories.

An update to my initial post back in '03. Just when I thought I'd never get rid of my Revel Salons (Gen I), I heard the Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 8s. So in chronological order, here goes:

Okay. Here is a list of the speakers that I have owned starting with the current set:

- Wilson Watt/Puppy 8s
- Revel Salons
- Legacy Audio Focus
- Legacy Audio Studio Monitors
- Polk M5's & M3's

Over the last several years my system has completely changed 6 times.

Lastly with the Watt/Puppy 8s:

DCS Delius DA converter
DCS Purcell DA converter
Audio ReQuest F-Series Media Server CD Player
Audio ReQuest IMC Video
Synology DS201J Network Storage Device Tweak
Richard Gray 1200S Tweak
Grand Prix Audio Monaco Modular Rack Stand
Grand Prix Audio F1 Carbon Fiber Shelf Tweak
Grand Prix Audio Apex Footers Tweak
PBN Denali Mono Amps Amplifier

Firstly with the Watt/Puppy 8s:

- Classe Classe SSP-600 Surround Pre
- Classe CDP-300 Video
- PBN Sierra Denali Monos Amplifier

With the Salons:

- Levinson 390S
- Levinson 33H's

With the Legacy Audio Focus:

- Meridian 561 pre/pro
- Meridian 596 dvd/cd player

With the Legacy Audio Studio Monitors:

- Meridian 502
- Meridian 506.24

With the Polk Audio Speakers:

- Yahama DSPA-3090 pre/pro & 7 channel amp

And I am still evolving. However, the speakers are forever remaining. I would ultimately like to end up with a dual purpose system where both music and movies are enjoyed. That'd bring me full circle.
1979 - 1983: Ohm type H
1983 - 2000: Nestorovic type 5
2000 - present: Hales T8

Future purchases when I hit the lottery: Vandersteen 7's or Verity Sarastro 2.
