What speaker is the most musical, one you never want to sell?


I've ran into a few "permanent" components over the years, 

I'm wondering what are the most satisfying speaker you've owned?

The Rockport Atria 2 is  the. Speaker in the best of in the $40k  range 

The Avior 2  is great and one of my Audiophile friend owns but Waay out of my price range .the Atria 2 is my end game speaker ,

If on a Budget 100% the Sonus Faber G2-8 at $9 k retail knocks it out of the park 

goes toe to toe with most any speaker under $15 k.

My Yamaha NS5000 is my keeper speaker. In fact, I tossed out the shipping boxes on that one.

For me it's my Quad 988 ESL's updated with revised input RC network. They are absolutely amazing in clarity, air, realism, sound stage and even the bass is now strong and powerful. 

This has been on my mind recently as we are talking about moving and downsizing. If we were to do that, I would have to get rid of a fair amount of gear. Thoughts around speakers I would bring “no matter what” include:

 

Thiel CS1.6

Dynaco A25

ADS L810

Monitor Audio Gold Signature 20

Stacked OLAs

Back in the 70's, I had a pair of Bozak Symphony b-4000 speakers. All paper cone. Each speaker had (2) 12" woofers, (1) 6" midrange, and (8) tweeters. They sounded wonderful! I got rid of them (which I regret) because of their size and a move back in 1992.

I've been searching for decades to find the sound I remember. About a year ago I decided to try a pair of MoFi Electronics, Sourcepoint 888's. Well, I found what I was looking for! I need say no more!
