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?

big Infinity ( RIP )

currently running Apogee, Tidal and TAD…. Blessed w lovely music

I was into Klipsch early in my audio journey. Heresy’s first followed by the Chorus. Both were terrific speakers. But around the year 2001 I heard the Legacy Audio Whispers. I was stunned by them. Just blew me away. BUT, way out of my price range at the time. I promised myself I would get them someday. It took me until 2009 to do it.  I  was living in St. Louis at the time, and Bill Duldleson, the founder, owner, and chef designer at Legacy actually delivered them to my home, set them up, and dialed in the DSP that came with them. Their factory is in Springfield, IL and only about two hour from STL. Anyway, I still have them and still love them as much as I did when I heard them for the first time. I doubt I will ever sell them. 

i always dreamed to buy these speakers...

i am curious to know if they perform well in very near listening field...

 

I’ll probably keep my Spica TC-50 forever. They share a lot in common with the Dunlavy but are not as physically imposing.

Over the years I've heard almost all the great loudspeakers.  For me and my dwelling the most musical speaker I'd never want to sell is the Vivid Audio Giya G1 Spirit Cu.  The speaker has an uncanny sense of 3D presence and transparency while remaining perfectly neutral.  It delights and excites on every listen!!!
