The best speaker you ever heard?

In my opinion, the speaker is by far the most important part of the audio system. After all, it is the only part you hear. OK, the other stuff really matters a lot, but without a great speaker... No go.

I am a bit 'speaker-obsessed' I guess, and now I am wondering: What are the best speakers you have ever heard, and what made them the best?

Pjl2122, until I heard the Feastrex 9 inchers on Sunday, I would have to say that the Grand Veena had my vote for the best speaker at the RMAF. Of course, the Feastrexs are far more expensive. I very close rival for the Grand Veena, however, was the $2500 LSA1s.

I was over at my friends (dealers) place and helped him set up his Evolution Acoustics MM2 speakers. They are georgeous and build quality is incredible. I came back 1 month later after they were pretty much broken in and I must say that it was the Absolute FINEST system I ever heard.

Fla, all that I know is that HP of TAS mentioned it in very positive tones, and I heard it at the RMAF. For the first two days of the show, it was, IMO, the best sounding. It was a little bright but that may be the associated electronics. I know only the Veena and the Grand Veena.

ESL 57. I recently got them (piquet modified) and they transformed my system from good to sublime.
