So what is the best speaker you have ever owned?

It's tie between my current Silverline Preludes and my 70's Altec A7s.

The one's that I currently own...the Sonus Faber Guarneri Hommage's.
Not likely to be replaced any time soon, enjoying them too much..:0)

HI,
My Martin Logan CLS IIA's electrostatics are the my favorites. I've had them since 1988 and they have been upgraded to the "A" version. The panels were replaced about 1 1/2 years ago. They are driven by ARC tubes. I have dual biamped (Levinson No. 23) Kinergetics SW-800 subwoofers. An astonishing speaker array.

Not much of a consensus here?
Just goes to show how different we all are in our tastes and preferences......and also why there are so many different speakers on the market?

Merlin VSM MX. Wonderful imaging,easy to drive,extended highs, surprisingly full bass, and very musical sounding.
