It is 2008 do you know the best start up speaker

Before I get to my question I just want to thank the designers and engineers who introduce great products to this nutty community.
I have been noticing names unfamiliar to me when goners mention new speakers that blow them away even after hearing so many great speakers before.
I would like to hear from goners their new discoveries of speakers that are world beaters.
This is not restricted to just new small companies. But I am most intereted in those cottage industry start-ups.
All price points are welcome, but wouldn't it be nice to read about a world class speaker under $5k? Or less.
To start I will mention one that caught my attention sp tech.

I hate to bring them up (again) because I'm afraid that I'll be accused of being a GMA shill...but I'm so excited about my Green Mountain Audio Callistos that I can't help myself. Of course, I choose to buy my Callistos (new) 3 months before Roy released his new line (which he claims even the Eos I bests the Callisto - I'll have to hear it to believe it). All 3 iterations fall below the $5k threshhold:

Eos I, $1,995 pair
Eos II, $3,200 pair
Eos III, $4,500 pair

GMA's been around for 20 years, so they don't really qualify as a "start up", but GMA does seem to fly beneath the radar, and may be one of the best kept secrets in audio.
