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?

My Vapor Audio Breeze speakers are stunning. The Raal tweeter offers glorious highs. Midrange is liquid. wide and deep soundstage. Tonality of instuments is off the charts. Bass is fast and tight. At $1300 for standard Breeze, I would say that this is easily one of the best bang for the buck in all of audio. My Breeze were custom, done in redwood burl, amorphous core Raal upgrade and Dueland resistors upgrade. I also have matching stands with the crossover in the base of the stands.
In my point of view the Energy Take Classic 5.1 is the best budget and outstanding sound system speaker that i have reviewed.
ADS L1530 modified. The largest precise sound stage with gut wrenching low end impact. I am there! Hard to find.
My VMPS RM2 speakers. I did a lot of research online and these had a lot of raving lunatics going gaga over them in the forums years ago. I bought them sound unheard. Took an expensive chance, and I won. I still love them. They take me into this musical zone. Too bad VMPS has closed with Brian Cheney's passing. He really knew how to engineer speakers.
