Do you have a speaker that’s not a big name maker but punches above its weight? Why?


I have a Gato Fm6. My reference for last 10 years. Sounds amazing. Designer used to work for Gamut. Amazing clarity. Great open midrange and vapor like treble that’s detailed , transparent and vapor like!  What are others?

My Dayton Audio IO8XTWs.  They look a lot like the Bowers & Wilkins AM-1, but at less than half the price.  The Daytons have an 8" woofer, the B&Ws a 5 incher.  I've never heard the B&Ws, but I can't imagine them sounding better at twice the price of the Daytons.  They truly are spectacular, giving me that huge, awesome concert/live sound outside.  When I add a sub to the mix, the sound is phenomenal. Parts Express truly delivers value. 

@porchlight1 hey porch, i used to have those same speakers being pushed by a made in japan denon receiver, one of the best and unforgettable combos i've had.  the denon died and i gifted the 302s to a good friend of mine in san diego.  being english himself, he really appreciated them (and still does), as they were made in his homeland.
