My own design. Why are they best? Because they sound exactly like I want them to, and I got world class drivers and crossovers into them for a song.
You don’t have to agree with me, at all, but here you go:

Tweeter and mid-woofer are of similar brand and quality to that found in Wilson, Gryphon and other top end brands. All caps are Clarity. All coils are Jentzen and some are copper foil.
While this is all a matter of personal taste, and you do not have to like mine, I am happy to report I’ve heard a lot of commercial speakers in the $10-$25k range which I would not trade them for.
How would I describe the sound? Warm, and transparent. Meaning, they don't sound like two boxes, you can't hear them playing as speakers at all. Whatever you hear, the illusion of the disappearing speaker is complete. They can play with great dynamic range, and deeply enough for my largish 1 BR apartment can handle. They are neutral enough to play just about anything well, including movies! They excel in HT mode, though I mainly listen to jazz and classical. The imaging is constrained by my apartment I'm afraid, but given room they are pretty amazing.
