Name 3 classic mini-monitors worth keeping- Why?

Spendor SA1 from 2009.  Fantastic tonal speaker, sealed-box (acoustic suspension) so usable in applications where the much more widely used base reflex ported speaker would be problematic (e.g., close to walls or in cabinet, among others).

Technics SB C700 monitor, Diapason Adamantes, Omega RS8, Tekton IM, Norh 9.0 marble Speakers...I own all of them, I still have them, Alnico Omega as well...

This is a very loaded question what constitutes classic? Currently in production or not?

If Classic means greater than 10 years or older:

Spica TC 50
Celestiion SL 600 and 700
ATC SCM 19 
Harbeths most smaller models
Proac Tablette and Response monitors
Monitor Audio Studio 10
Kef Ref 201.2 
B&W 805

Most of the above speakers are nice but not classics. To start with most above are not 'mini' monitors and to be clear I'm not denigrating any of them.


Arguably the Rogers LS35a *does* fit that description though.


Possibly also the Radio Shack Optimus ProLX5, which used the Linaeum tweeter and played *well* outside its price bracket as a result.


To be fair, it might help to know what is meant by 'classic'. Older? or something more than just old?

Yes + for the Celestion SL6 and especially the Spica TC-50.
