The original Quads, of course, and the Infinity Servo Statics as well. I'd like to also nominate the Duntech Sovereigns, which when first introduced raised the bar for dynamic cone speakers and still, when set up in a large room with electronics that can control their bass and match their warmish tonal balance, can convey the soul of the music with the best of them. And I think that time could also find the Avalon Ascents in this company of speakers, a great design that has since been further refined and showed how well a box speaker could disappear when properly set up.
