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.

That was fun!
Can't remember 60's, 70's and 80's. So, from the mid 90's forward, B&W 802's with center channel and 4 surrounds. Replaced 802 with 800d's and center and surrounds with the B&W signiture series. Sold all the B&W and went 2 channel with the rockport altair's. Now, altair's gone and the Rockport arrakis in their place. Nowhere left to go! That was exhausting!

...first set of "real" stereo speakers for me was Cerwin Vega circa 1984, can't recall model but they were top of the line for them, huge floor monsters. then Bose 901's in 1993, my 3rd set and last purchase Energy RC-10 bookshelf speakers, believe it or not the cheapest by far and best sounding of the 3, not to mention smallest by a mile!
