There are several music fans who choose to play a set of collectible audio systems or perhaps a vacuum tube amplifier designed at some time within the nineteen fifties when compared to the so-called micro-processor driven, electronic sounding elements created these days. Probably one with the finest sounding vintage loudspeakers are the Tannoy Berkeleys. Tannoy also developed a speaker called the canterbury which had been astounding just as well. If you can locate these at auction I might most definately get a set.

Crutchfield reviews the Infinity Kappa car speaker lineup.
Old style speaker system are terrific at recreating all of the music range when measuring relatively flat. While coupled with the correct hardware this tends to give incredible seperation and placement of vocals and instruments. It produces the type of sound where if you shut your eyes it's tricky to know that your in fact hearing a recording.
