Harbeth Compact 7 ES3's. I went from some Custom Speakers built by a local guy in Portland to some Paradigm Monitor 11's (too large and forward in their presentation for my room), and even moved my Monitor Audio RS6's up into my listening room from their perch in the Surround sound system downstairs. Liked them, but was looking for a bit more....... Heard the Harbeth's and fell in love. Speaking of the one that I let get away; in the early 90's I gave to a friend who was in need my JBL L65 Jubals that were in mint condition (aside from needing new surrounds) when I purchased the custom built speakers. I've seen just the L65's tweeters going for north of $600 on Ebay!
IMHO, there was nothing like the Jubal at its price point for listening to loud Classic Rock! I was in the Navy in 1975 when I purchased them at the Navy Exchange in Subic Bay Philippines for $600 in 1975.
