If they would still be “the most fun” why have something else?
Good question, and I have thought about this many times. There is an argument to be made that the most fun speaker is the one you should keep. I think for many responses including my own, it's a question of weighing fun factor (big bass, slam, warmth, etc) vs refinement. Also there have been many responses of speakers with big woofers, maybe there are folks who no longer have room for large speakers.
