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 Pmwoodward  (Threads | Answers | This Thread) 04-04-02

NO bottom! * Belle Klipsch $1100. Still have them. Talked my dad into buying them from a private party and he threw in a turntable. * JBLs - traded for a window air conditioner! * Magnepan MG-IC $75. Autioneer did not even know they were speakers. Asked me what I wanted the strange room dividers for. LOL. Still have them. * Infinity Preludes? (Little speakers with powered sub on side) $600 at Computer City. Still have them. MUDDY sound! Anybody wanna buy 'em? * Speakerlab $200 last week. I WISH someone could tell me what model they are. Tweeter and mid in front, sub-woofer in the rear with no grill. Oak cabinet. NO label of any kind except on front grill. Maybe home built but still should have a model #. Great big rock and roll sound. I have NEVER owned a speaker that I truly love; everything has been a compromise. The Klipsch are FANTASTIC, but not for easy listening and NOT for a small room.
