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

Fisher towers w/ 12" woofers 3 yrs
Pinnicle mini monitors 1 yr
cambridge soundworks ensemble 2 2 yrs
Vandersteen 2ce 5 yrs
Talon Audio Khorus 1 yr
Wilson Watt Puppy 5.1 5 mo and counting

I think I'll keep the Wilsons for the long haul > 3yrs
I feel that the best way to judge speakers is based on how long people own them. I'll bet the average ownership period for vandersteens is over 5 years.
