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

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!

Dynaudio Audience 82. I still miss them. Had to sell my rig after my divorce. I’m thrilled with my current Revel’s, but damn I remember that first intimate session after setting them up and letting them break in for a week…awestruck doesn’t even describe the feeling from that first session (and every subsequent session). I’ve had those “Wow” moments since with different gear assembling my current rig, but nothing like that one with the 82’s…They were pure magic!

I also have SF Sonetto V G1 in my second system, my first go round with SF, and definitely very impressed. I bought them unheard, and figured it was a safe bet as they’d always been compared favorably to Dynaudio, but I still prefer my Revel’s.
