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?

i had to respond here as I am unable to respond to your pm. 
 

I was under the impression you lived in Colo and was going to suggest we get together for a listening session.

My first pair of decent speakers were JBL-L100’s that I bought new at the J.B. Lansing Company in Burbank, CA. in 1975. I think I paid $600 for the pair.

I loved those speakers and would have them today. However, they were damaged in a move. They were the perfect sized so-called “Bookshelf Speakers” for my apartment dwelling days. They were sweet and clean, even at moderate volume. I was surrounded by neighbors in the apartment building and we were all very respectful of each other, so I couldn’t crank them up anyway…

My other favorites I still own and use in my system today are my KEF Reference 205/2’s. I bought them as a retirement gift to myself in ‘2008’ and they are still going strong. They are warm and tonal and still look as good as the day I bought them. I think they are great speakers!

Maggie 3.6R on Mye Stands, bought in mid 90s and still with me and still love 'em.

Hi traudio,

Good question, however did you have a price range in mind?

Speakers that have my permanent grip:

Thiel PowerPoint 1.2, fabulous surround or as rear speakers in a car

Thiel 2.3 

Thiel 2.4SE

Thiel 3.7

Thiel 7.2

Bryston Model TRex (!) using Bryston active Crossover & Amps

Bryston Mini T - a great large bookshelf/near field at a not so large price.

Thiel is currently only on the used market, and I'm looking forward to Tom Thiel's efforts to start Thiel Rennessaince (!).

Bryston has updated their line to T10 models that are readily available.

If price was no object:

Wilson's or MBL

Happy Listening!
