The best speaker you ever heard?

Loki1957 - I also have the Hales C-5. I will never sell them! One of these days I'm going to give them the power they deserve... I'm sure it will be a whole new experience.

..... and the rockport technologies hyperions, which i now so proudly & enjoyably own!

I haven't been exposed to much, but the best system I've heard was 3 channel set-up using Dahlquist DQ-20s in 1990 or so. The guy had put together a comparator that took the information that was common to both channels and put that in a center channel. It wasn't a "surround sound" processor, either. Around that time I also heard some Acoustats that sent me down the path of ESLs, I'd say those were the most dramatic speakers I've heard with regard to the life-changing impact they had on me.

The best speakers I've ever heard are the Sequels I get to listen to every day! :)

The DCM TFE200's are some of the best sounding that I have ever heard...just AMAZING! THEY ARE THE REAL DEAL!!

Must give a solid plug here for the Acoustic Zen Adigio as it is solid all around and outstanding value. I've listened to speakers throughout the $5,000-$22,000 range and the Adagio by Acoustic Zen is simply spot on and good at everything. Lot of the supposed big name/big ticket speakers I heard were also good but there were clear faults on most while I could not discern any faults from the Acoustic Zen so I bought them and am now listening and enjoying my music much more than ever expected.

My system consists of the Musical Fidelity KW250S, JPS Kaptavator power cord, and Crystal cable speaker wires.
