High value, giant killer speakers?

I have auditioned many speakers over the years from $3k-$300k and IMHO I was blown away when I heard a little known speaker in the USA that was reasonably priced retail $6k that crushes many speakers more than 5x,10x their price. The speaker is made by Amphion in Finland. The price performance is oof the charts. I spent approximately two years auditioning speakers and amps before investing. When allocating a significant  amount of money for a high end system, after all that testing, I bought the Amphion Argon 7L on the spot. They are quite efficient at 91db. When paired with a good amp you will be delighted. I actively continue to audition speakers and amps and thus far have not found a speaker that outperforms at this price range. Worth a listen if you can find a dealer.

What most forget about and hardly ever take into consideration is the room you are listening in.

I have heard very expensive gear sound only so so..kind of bland and I have heard moderately priced gear set up correctly in a great sounding room sound fantastic.

Audiofool1....no joke about those Amphion speakers. They are actually somewhat popular in the pro audio world as mix and some mastering speakers in recording studios. I see them all the time at my music instrument trade shows and in some studios.

another speaker that will blow away consumer speakers is Barefoot Audio. These like the Amphion speakers are self powered and have become one of the top rated recording studio speakers. They are accurate, detailed, wide listening sweet spot.
