Scientific Fidelity Tesla. Still my favorite sounding speaker, too, after auditioning B&W, Martin Logan, PSB Synchrony One, Von Schweikert, and several others in my listening room.

Not only do these speakers sound fantastic, their wide front makes them behave more like a panel speaker, but with the dynamic range and smooth response of dynamics. I really wish more audiophiles got to hear these speakers. I should remember to recommend them every time a reader says they have a difficult room.

They are in many ways what a Snell A/III would sound like today, though the A/III still has the best room/bass coupling of any floor stander I've ever heard.

My half-naked Quad ESL57s. Kidding. They're so freakin' ugly. Only reason I keep them is they sound so good.
