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, the MBL is incredible in the bass? If I win one in a contest, I will give it to you. I have been interested in the basic idea since I heard a prototype in the 1970s, but I have heard little improvement.

Pretty much every speaker anyones owned or heard is on the list! Balance is the key to musicality...not any one or two aspects of a design.

Krell LAT-1000. I'm still breaking mine in and they are wonderful in every sense!

The LAT-1000's are precisely what I'm talking about...they are balanced and musical! My Resolution 2's are cut from the same cloth.
