Experienced audiophiles best speaker


We can get a better picture of which speaker is truly better if those contributing their favorites have heard a good number of the top speakers.
Include in your response the speakers that didn't take the gold.

Anthony Gallo Acoustics Reference 3.1 for $2000 +- or Revel Ultima Salon2 for $20,000+-. Soundlab. All three are excellent.
To buconero117: you've heard all the other speakers (and in the same room with the same equipment?!
At the recent Munich High End Show I was impressed with the TAD Reference 1 and the Tidal Sunray. There were many great speakers on display, but those two made the most impression.

I was also very pleased with the Focal Grande Utopia - for unknown reasons I had wrongly prejudged these.

The most advanced efforts by the designers are not successfully pointing the write target (of a care-free, less concious way of listening) but on the contrary their products are forcing the consummers to serve their demands in order to perform a barely acceptable hi-fi sound that does not matches with what our brain has loaded in our mind.
The quality of our lives as audiophiles depends strictly by:
A speaker that makes his owner happy!!!

Not impressive like the latest Grande Utopia, neither as sweet & addictive as the earlier Proac Response 4. (when these two were matched with 600W amp)
Just my favourite over the AvantGarde TRIO.
Mostly because it has the write balance of everything & delivers an unmistakable sense of liveness without any special demands.
