What are some of the most underrated and overrated loudspeakers you’ve auditioned?

Hey I honestly believe OHM got home audio speaker design right with the Walsh design and its huge sweet spot (practically the whole room)  and most of the rest are barking up the wrong tree, so there you go.   

How many people really enjoy having to squeeze into a tiny sweet spot?

Overrated:  BOSE.  Mostly because people who have them are convinced by the marketing and have no idea how badly they overpaid and could have had much better.  

Focus- heard them at a roadshow 20 years ago and thought they were garbage.   Can’t say they are overrated, as that was one experience, in one room, years ago.  

@millercarbon   What speakers are you currently using in your system?

It’s an interesting question, if qualified. One example could be a minimum of 6 months of ownership and at least 5 owned speakers (6 months or more of ownership). There are others.

Otherwise,  +1 to @prof ’s "This should go well...." post.

Overrated:

 Devore gibbon 8, heard a set side by side with a Dynaudio 3 way think the predecessor to the x38 (same price range as the devore) and the dyn was significantly better to the point that we just tuned off the Devore and focused on the dyn I was really interested in the Devore but the sound was disappointing at best, looks wonderful though lol. 

Mac speakers...how many tweeters ? 

Underrated; 

Living Voice; not overly popular here in NA but great speaker. Good time to buy with the UK pound so low (thanks Brexit).
