What's your favorite boutique speaker maker

I'm curious as to why no one has mentioned Tyler Acoustics


^^^^^^^^^^^^
Tyler made/makes some very nice speakers with the SEAS Excel line of drivers,, THey are too large for my needs, but if you have the room size, and the muscles,, Tyler is <<best bang for the buck>> IMHO Tyler should have stayed with SEAS only drivers , making all sorts of 2 ways and 3 ways.
And also offering xovers with high tech caps, like Mundorf Supreme EVO's. 
This would have given his speakers a  edge over any comp and really put his name on the map.
Xovers should be external, this way buyer gets to see exactly what he is paying for,,as those caps are expensive, but worth it.

My favorite is Sound Labs ESL


^^^^ some audiophiles, reject planars/panels as <,true high fidelity speakers>> I find they are <<disqualified>> to be included in the genre <,speakers>> THey are ina  category all by themselves... why you ask??
The power requirements are<,ridiculous> 100+ watts.. Just crazy.
+ they are pin point directional,, the so called <,sweet spot>> + they are too heavy. 
No I find they are disqualified to be mentioned when discussing <<speakers> 

I would define 
<<The New 21st C Boutqiue Speaker>> 
Has  the xovers external, so you can see exactly what you are getting.
And the components are  from high tech labs, Like Mundorf, Miflex, Jenzen.
Drivers from Scandanavia, like SEAS, Scan Speaker and SB Acoustics.

Vapor Audio out of Missouri.. The Nimbus models are a true visual work of art and sound the part as well...

Please accept my vote for Magnepan. In my small house I pair 0.7s with a par of DWMs. Each DWM I wired the two 4 Ohm elements in series for 8 Ohms and connected the outputs of the Hammond 1642SE transformers as follows: 0.7 negative to zero, 0.7 positive to 4 Ohms, One DWM negative to 8 Ohms, same DWM positive to second DWM negative, second DWM positive to 16 Ohms. The 5 k primary of the output transformer to a heavy duty transmitter triode such as the 833A to easily drive it all. It is more than enough power and it sounds most like a live orchestra in the opera house I went to before the plague. Other Magnepans might be ideal in a bigger room.
