Experienced audiophiles best speaker


We can get a better picture of which speaker is truly better if those contributing their favorites have heard a good number of the top speakers.
Include in your response the speakers that didn't take the gold.

Hope these don't have to be really expensive speakers to qualify for this discussion.

I heard the Wilson Benesch Curves at the RMAF last year. They sounded pretty good to my ears.

When some one who reads one of my threads and calls me to order a piece of gear I mentioned I will immediately contact you both. Until that day comes however it is probably not worth getting you knickers in a knot.

I trust that goners take every thread and not just mine with a grain of salt. I would encourage that, though I would be satisfied if they would simply take mine with the grain that I include in each thread.

Ok. I give up. Full disclosure to come. Not just for products I sell but every thread.

Kubala-Sosna, Wilson Benesch, Esoteric, deHavilland and Sonist Dealer.

Thanks Paul, Kara's electronics have a lot to do with the sound. Check out this blog from the dagogo show in San Francisco.

I feel like I hi-jacked this post. I appologize for that.

To me the best speaker is one that works with the room. Not to much bass, much better that the room can handle it. Most rooms vibrate just like autos when the subs in the trunk start rattling.

Most of all I like speakers that get out of the way. I want to see into the source. I mean speakers should just let the "good stuff come through".

If you are lucky enough to own really good electronics you will realize you don't need 50K speakers. What would they do? Fill an auditorium?

Just simple speakers, two way, two and 1/2 way. I want a minimal crossover not one that robs me of the music. I have seen crossovers that have more components then my preamplifier. Sick.

Well the amplifiers are warming up. My Pinot Noir has had enough time to breath, ( 6 minutes at the most ) so have to be going. My X wife is out of town so the night is mine.

Disclaimer: I am a dealer for Sonist Speakers and Wilson Benesch Speakers and deHavilland Electric Amplifier Company and last but not least Kubala-Sosna cables and interconnects.

Hold you applause I was force to do that.
