The best speaker you ever heard?

Heard for past two days:

The Magico V3, very impressive, driven by all Soulution and PAD cables.

But so was the Vivid Gaya, driven by Ayre/Wadia chain and Transparent cables.

None of these want to make me change from what I have, but good effort nonetheless.

The best speaker is one that is just not there. I mean a speaker that appears to be physically gone - vanished - a speaker that does not get in the way of the original music. The music is just there in front of you, or around you, depending on how it's recorded.

That does exist, however you need to have a very good complete set and a perfect - if there is such a thing - room. I think you can have that with different speakers, but so far I've only heard that in two rooms ever in my life. One of them is mine.

You must be one happy camper. I am a firm believer in the room. What acoustic treatments were necessary to achieve that perfect room?

Shadorne, not that I have the perfect room (its my living room) but 15 acoustic resonators are doing there work to great effect.

... plus a dozen sugar cubes, several strategically placed diffusors and a phase corrector... all from Franck Tchang's Acoustic Systems!
