The best speaker you ever heard?

Semi, sorry I haven't been following this thread. Lloyd Walker certainly thinks highly of the Ushers, with his mods of course. I was taken aback by the Pioneers at the RMAF last year, sending many friends to hear them. I do suspect that their bottom end is not a low as the TAD Model 2s or the big Ushers.

Best I ever heard have been the open baffle speakers I made for myself - they replaced my Verity Parsifals without any qualms.

I may have finally heard a good speaker at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, but only after the driving electronics had been on for two days. The speaker boxes for it are still a work in progress, but already its strengths are evident. Also already evident is that it is quite expensive. It is the 9" full-range, a believe it, field coil driver from Feastrex.

I have own several versions of the Lowthers and heard more. I know what their limitation are as well as the fact that they are not full-range drivers. They also shout at you unless the horn designer is exceptional, such as Beauhorn.

The Feastrex have none of these problem, and what I heard will get substantially better once they have five or six hundred hours on them.

Their less expensive 5" driver with the Monster Alnico magnet where also quite good, but do need help in the bottom end.

I attended a show more for integration less for sound; but came across a German company named ADAM (www.adam-audio.com )I set down only since my legs hurt from walking in the show all day. sudenly I hear these little odd speakers making musice so real I thought it is an illusion
the model is Alpha; now I am considering to import them to my country. these speakers ROCK no bull no nonsence they are as real as I have ever heard an I ownd atleast 40 pairs of high end speakers through the years; one last thing : THEY R VERY EXPENSIVE ; although they have "samll Brothers" costing less.
