It is 2008 do you know the best start up speaker

Before I get to my question I just want to thank the designers and engineers who introduce great products to this nutty community.
I have been noticing names unfamiliar to me when goners mention new speakers that blow them away even after hearing so many great speakers before.
I would like to hear from goners their new discoveries of speakers that are world beaters.
This is not restricted to just new small companies. But I am most intereted in those cottage industry start-ups.
All price points are welcome, but wouldn't it be nice to read about a world class speaker under $5k? Or less.
To start I will mention one that caught my attention sp tech.

I hate to bring them up (again) because I'm afraid that I'll be accused of being a GMA shill...but I'm so excited about my Green Mountain Audio Callistos that I can't help myself. Of course, I choose to buy my Callistos (new) 3 months before Roy released his new line (which he claims even the Eos I bests the Callisto - I'll have to hear it to believe it). All 3 iterations fall below the $5k threshhold:

Eos I, $1,995 pair
Eos II, $3,200 pair
Eos III, $4,500 pair

GMA's been around for 20 years, so they don't really qualify as a "start up", but GMA does seem to fly beneath the radar, and may be one of the best kept secrets in audio.

Thank you for contributing all, the company doesn't have to be young or started in 2008. I was hoping to hear of those companies that are not known like sp tech nsr cerious technologies etc. I may have to post again and rephrase it.
