  Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
After 9 years with my Proac Response 3s, I recently decided to change speakers. As you can tell, I'm not an upgrade fever patient. I want something I can live with for years & I think the best advice I'm gonna get will be from those who have & are still living with their speakers for an extended period of time. Please tell me why too. Thanks.Bob.

I love my Klipsch La Scalas whhc i have had some 15 years. Man they are big and even though they swallow up my living room, I'm hanging on to them. Heresy: I drive them through transistor amps but only because I have never found a reasonably priced valve amp. Sometimes I hang a thick bit of cloth in front of the top half of HF driver to damp the treble. But generally they do me straight. I'm just peering up at some lesser speakers, now on a shelf above my monitor: JBL 4301B Control Monitors, they are fab too. I pretty much go for JBLs for the kind of music I listen to.
