The best speaker you ever heard?


In my opinion, the speaker is by far the most important part of the audio system. After all, it is the only part you hear. OK, the other stuff really matters a lot, but without a great speaker... No go.

I am a bit 'speaker-obsessed' I guess, and now I am wondering: What are the best speakers you have ever heard, and what made them the best?

Ok, I'll ask again...where do you get these 901 MK2's??
I have alway's liked 901's, and owned many, but MK2??
Where do you find em???
Telescope_trade, they have been selling these mk2 901's for about a year now. They don't say anything about the mk2 901's on their web site but if you call bose and talk to one of their bose techs at 1-800-367-4008 they will tell you about these mk2 901's. They did some improvements to their speaker cones and they also now use a new type of surrounds that will last a lot longer now. They also did some improvements to their equalizers too.
Cool thanks for the info! I'll check into them! I'll tell you
what, I agree that the 901's sound great, not sure the best
I have "ever" heard, but I have heard a lot! And I have always
wondered where the H.E. double hockey sticks Bose bashers came from. I have owned/heard worse very high end speakers!
Bose? Come on- the concept is absurd. The results are poor.

Considering the fact that you keep introducing the same product to this thread over and over again, you set off the shrill shill alarm. Even if Bose made a credible product, your incessant push would serve to discredit them just as it has already discredited you. The 901 is not even a good speaker much less a candidate for "best" anything. Give it up.

Disclaimer: I don't go to audio shows and I don't know any audiophiles that I can visit to listen to other systems. I don't go to brick and mortar stores because of the pressure and attitudes of the sales people. So, the best speakers that I have ever heard are my own, Infinity IRS Beta.
