What vintage speaker might you use today


Like to find out what "vintage speakers" members would/might use in their current audio set-up

Do you think what made them special was the synergy between them and the amp used, or just the fact they were well designed and performed way above their price tag.??

I agree that you should define vintage.

But having had HiFi systems since the mid 70's and hearing a lot of loudspeakers, I would say any of the "L" series of speakers by ADS. These would be the "L"'s with the butyl rubber surrounds and bronze mesh grills. IMO these were the best I heard back in the day.
In fact, while waiting for a new replacement driver for one of my Viennas, I used a near mint pair of ADS L-520's for awhile in my system recently and was still amazed at how they sound.
