I paid 50 buck for Vintage Mission Cyrus 781, not only a good mid frequencies timbre but a bass power over his scale price /S.Q. ratio... They fit on my big desk by the way...In an acoustically controlled small room they can compete with magnepan in a non controlled room bigger room ....
Yes i am lucky....
I will die with them.... I am in fear to try an upgrade to exceed them at relatively low price ....Mission impossible....
And paying arounf 6,000 canadian bucks for a probably improving Harbeth model is impossible for me...

Dont forget that room acoustic is the key in audiophile experience not a brand name in speakers gear....Or a specialized "tweaks" ....
We wait for the time being for the speakers technology that will nullify room specific acoustic... Most of us are not there and i think this new technology is not on the market now...And if it is is not accessible for most of us now....I dont know...
And most headphones had their own limitations : the connected two shells vibrate like the gear did and there is acoustical negative properties of the shell like any room has his negative problems to be solved by acoustic control....And dont forget the electrical noise floor of the house affecting speakers and headphones...
