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?

Iʻve been running a set of custom built open baffle Linkwitz Orions for about 20 years now.  Like many, I get hit with "Audio Lust" from time to time, but then I fire up the Orions and fall in love again.  I especially love them for voices and acoustic piano.  Being open baffle, the tonal balance is consistent throughout the room  Imaging is best in the sweet spot of course, like most loudspeakers, but they sound good everywhere.  They also have terrific dynamic range and can crank as loud as I like on large symphonic works, big band jazz, etc.

McIntosh XRT 20's. Not sure about "most" musical, but they were a wedding gift from my wife 38 years ago. Definitely both keepers.

Audio Physic Virgo II. Going on their 20th year, still play like new. I keep upgrading amp and pre-amp, but speakers stay. Using Eversolo A10 into Ayre 5ex. The original Stereoohile reviewer said “Where’d they go?”  Such is their soundstage. 

Coming from a pair of the original Ohm F speakers in the 70’s and then a pair of Martin Logan Sequels with a few more in between I am now very happy with my Focal Sopra 2’s. Matched with a McIntosh MC462, Backert Labs Rhythm 1.3, LUMIN U1, Aqua Acoustics LaScala DAC. The sound is true to life. I must emphasize that I listen in a closed door dedicated media room.
