???YOUR Personal Favorite???Why???

Do 2-way bookshelf speakers count? I mean any small speaker can be put on a stand, right? Some of the speakers above I would categorize as bookshelf.

I hate to pile on, but the Pulsar 2's are all the standmount speaker I need.  Though I do like the looks of those Vivid Kayas.

DeVore O/96 (they come with a stand...) with Air Tight ATM-300 and Lumin X1...  I also have Well Tempered TT, Line Magnetic PS, and a passive pre-amp...  all of which are disconnected since I got the X1.

B+W Nautilus 805’s on their dedicated stands. Still amazing after all these years. Used (obviously) with stands around $2500 or so. 

I’m thrilled with my TAD ME-1 speakers.  They do everything well and perform above their size.
