Best new loudspeaker

I have heard many loudspeakers ,I own Magnapan , and
a Aerial 10-t . This new loudspeaker I heard at great lengths and many agree is from a new company called
NSR -Sonic Research the D-3 Sonata was absolutely killer
and they were saying the wiring and crossover are not even final as of the Jan show . parts quality is excellent in the Silver finish I saw,for a speaker under $5k to create such a soundstage presence with bass that had articulation and impact is beyond me how they do it ,I am told it is a
sealed focal lens .They will be selling by March ,I for sure will be saving my bucks, this is one loudspeaker to watch ,I am already selling my 10-ts.

never will any cone design be the best. electrostats are less inaccurate in reproducing timbre.

there is a way to demonstrate this, but unfortunately people live to far away to do a simple test.

the quads unlimited quad 57 are closer to real than anything out there, period.

I have had stats and you are partially correct .
The best stat by far for full scale is the Soundlabs A1
one of the best loudspeakers out there but big and not room freindly .Nowadays most living rooms donot want a big loudspeaker that is for a dedicated room .Electrostatic loudspeakers have probably the clearest midrange out there
but there is much less of a sweetspot than a cone loudspeaker,the top end for sure is softer and donot have the dynamic range from soft to loud,also they are not as efficient. These are facts just read from the many reviews.

MrTennis, I'm shocked :) are you running a double standard ??!

Why can't an amplifier have the same status you just bestowed on the Quad??

Following on from Goatwuss' comment, I find it strange that these three 'users' who are promoting this new speaker all have previous transactions with each other.

I guess we're just talking about one user, not three.

Time for all those speaker manufacturers to close shop and admit defeat....they will never better this 50+ year old product!

Why everyone does not own one remains one of those mysteries...
