Sherwood S-8900A
#10

I wish I had my Klipsches back in early 90s.
I got my 1st pair of Cornwalls locally (got lucky - the price was good) 2 years ago and loved them so much that when I saw an ad for second pair for just $500 in New Paltz (150 miles) i swiped them (the guy had two pairs). Now, starting from a month ago, they are my daily players with the second system I built.
You barely need to put any power into them for my wife yelling from the second floor (and I am in the basement) that "This is not a discotheque, turn the volume down!".
And this is when I play classics.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
