The Worst Speaker you have ever heard.

Mrtennis, you state:

the worst panel speaker is better than the best cone speaker

All depends what ones personal preference is for a sonic signature. Every different speaker design has its strength and weaknesses.

I won't pan a specific speaker,but the speakers I consider over rated are the ones with bloated bass,designed to appeal to people who listen to them for five minutes in a retail setting.

My second choice is any tenured professor,who is going through the motions,who makes it obvious that he or she would rather be any place else than reading a fifty minute lecture to undergraduates.

A few years ago I heard a pair of B&W 802N with a correspondingly awful Krell amplifer.

Chalk on a chalkboard was more pleasant and less fatigueing.

So we got a tie: Wilson and Bose by now for Worst speakers ever, both with 10 nominations each! Actually Wilson had 11 and one good one, so I discounted one bad vote with the good vote...

Now if we take in account over-priced I guess the most expensive would be the tie breaker...

Bush is worst than Gore by one point.
I would add another Bad Point to Bush....nuculuear, or vehicle!!!

Guys...this is an AUDIO forum
