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?

It doesn't seem to matter what the topic is as long as you can find some way to intrude upon it with your uninformative, unconvincing and unremitting Bose claims.

The 901 is a bogus design, a con, that has shown remarkable longevity in the face of common sense and common knowledge. Give it a rest.

horns versus Bose.

Battle of the century!

David versus Goliath?

Both so misunderstood by others! So under-appreciated!

Hifi and Macro, you two should be able to find some solace with each other although I doubt you'll ever come to terms on what good sound is.

The 901's are like two big audiophile buttcheeks.

Macrojack, If you go look at July's Issue of Stereophile they reviewed the Audience ClairAudient 2+2 speakers and the writer made comments about the "possible audible benefits of having only ONE type and SIZE of SPEAKER DRIVER, AND NO PASSIVE-CROSSOVERS". This is sure true with the 901's !
