High value, giant killer speakers?

What speakers have you heard at any price did you find are fairly priced or a great deal and competed with offerings much more expensive (2x, 3x, 4x etc)?

@thecarpathian heard the Fritz at CAF too.  Really excellent.  Though doubtless that Modwright SET was adding some its magic sauce too.

A standmount that was only outdone at the show by the Gamut, which are orders of magnitude more expensive and definitely not high value.

Yes, I’m sure the Modwright set up was wonderful. I run them with Odyssey amp and pre. Sound is extremely detailed. But in all honesty, with my equipment and room, the beryllium tweeters can be a bit ’hot’ on certain songs. I’m certain the Modwright SET went a long way to eliminating that particular foible. Fritz’s very simple series crossover really stays out of the way of the music. Clarity and detail in spades....excellent for the money.

+1 for Voxativ since the OP is going up to $10K.  Their point source drivers paired with a SET amp create a special sound that I enjoy more than anything I have ever heard, your mileage may vary.   I listened to all the usual suspects (Raidho, Magico, YG, Wilson, etc.).  Good speakers but they couldn't match the quality of the sound.
