The best speaker you ever heard?

Has anyboday ever heard the Acarian Systems Alon Phalanx? (with Poseidon subs) How are these speakers 'rated' these days?

The best I have ever heard period are the MBL 111e's, have not heard the 101e's ,however, I am sure they are better. The 111e's I heard were in a awesome room, with big dollar every thing. The best "real world speakers" are ATC's Anniversary 50's. I formed these recent opinions over the last two weeks in which I dragged every piece of equipment and cable to listen to over 10 high end speakers. My OPINIONS of all ten speakers are on MY SYSTEM page, if any one cares.

I have heard many that in some way made a lasting impression to this day. To me these were all good and in some ways "the best".I'll give examples:

-Quad ESL 57/63
-Acoustat 2+2
-Linn Isobarik
-Apogee Diva
-Magnapan various models
-Sonusfaber Extrema
-Vandersteen 3A, 5A
-Proac Response various models
-Wilson Watt/Puppy 3
-Martin Logan Sequel 2
-Martin Logan Aerius I

And last, but not the least, and probably the most fun events ever (granted not the last word in refinement and resolution) were to hear a friend's Cerwin.-Vega DC1515's playing from his varanda onto an open field at a distance of 20m with the sum total of 1600w of Rms power from four mono amps driving them. Totally mind blowing if you can appreciate the sensation of a live rock concert in your backyard!

My favorite so far is a pair of Tannoy's Dual Concentric speakers, a DIY project. This comprises some hefty 15" DC unit, a Tannoy supertweeter and some extensive outboard filters in a huge cabinet. Sound is absoluty amazing, closest thing to a live concert I ever encounterd. One major drawback: they aren't mine.....
