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?

Hi Shadhorne,

Interesting point. i think you must be right. in fact, the transparency/imaging of the Slamms i have was suppoedly improved by Wilson(though i've not done direct comparison) by making adjustment to those very edges. They basially shaped each cone cabinet by carving back to the corners around the cone to keep their dispersion fully open. it started with the last generation of the Slamms on the midrange and was improved in the Alexandria by being applied to every cone.
A speaker with a frequency response like mountain Everest can never be characterised as the Best! Cummon guys at least let's agree on some basic things!

Happy new year!
