That's "Alon" backwards. Just a phenomenal speaker that performs with the best at a fraction of the cost. Tremendously accurate and organic sounding.
JBL Century 100s, Dalquist panels from the 70's, Martin-Logan CLSIIz with Kinergistic SW800 subwoofer towers --
the 100s had the most incredible midrange and with a simple equalizer accenting the treble and bass, the 100s were incredible rock and roll speakers.
Nola Viper IIA. Open, dynamic, organic sounding. Sounds great with SS or tubes, and almost any kind of music. The Viper II Plus and Viper II are pretty special too.
MY TOP 10 LIST starts with: KLIPSCHORNS CAN DO THINGS TO MUSIC THAT NO OTHER SPEAKER CAN. MAKE CHILLS RUN UP AND DOWN YOUR SPINE.
Duntech Soverigns though not as accurate as they could be have a beautiful wide range sound and when driven by good electronics sound wonderful.
B&W Signature 800's, outstandingly accurate and very good, maybe not as exciting as the K'horn and the Soverign.
Paradigm Signature S8 Does a lot of things well and is a very balanced speaker and properly team it with a Signature Servo and it will be wider range and rock solid clean bass as good as any.
