vintage versus modern speakers

Since I have had so many excellent insights and answers to my question, here is the second chapter of my "free" education: are great vintage speakers (Infiniti, JBL,Sansui, Sony, etc..) from the seventies better sounding than what is available now? the X factor in that equation is the cost, since my speaker budget is only 1500$ for two speakers.

Ladies and Gentlemen, your advice will be read and taken into consideration.
Thank you.

Bombbaywalla, I agree with much/most of what you say.
To my ears though one guy who does get things right with off the wall design is Anthony Gallo.
Any thoughts on him?

Bigkidz, very interesting post. I think any music lover
would be happy with any Meadowlark I ever heard.
IMO the old-time 60's , 70's speaker that would be most competitive today is the little KLH 17.
