Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre?


I realise that the music industry seems to care less and less about timbre, see

But for me, without timbre music reproduction can be compared to food which lacks flavour or a modern movie with washed out colours. Occasionally interesting, but rarely engaging.

So my question is, what are your loudspeaker candidates if you are looking for a 'Technicolor' sound?

I know many use tube amps solely for this aim, but perhaps they are a subject deserving an entirely separate discussion.

I have as new old wood boxes filled with under-felt AKAI SWT1, popped with a good xover and some skytronics 10's, some good mid's and silk tops.
AR8 with QST/QSC drivers, the outer cm is not ribbed so it delivers some mids and the silk tops balances the setup well.Also have JBL control 1's which are not power hungry like my boston A23's.. prefer the C1's, they rock for such small speakers.One can never end when it comes to speakers...all i can say is 3 systems running from the Rotel rdd980 and rcd980 at the same time fills the home, garden and the neighbors...Law enforcement + Police often pop in for a frostie or some coffee!
