Monitor speaker that will stop the Quest?

There's a great thread, "Speakers to hold onto for life".
The overwhelming consenses is that they're fullrange speakers.
How about us monitor speaker fans? What monitor speaker
do you own or plan on purchasing that will indeed stop
the quest for a better speaker, or to hang on to for life.

I'm perfectly happy with my SP Technology (now Aether Audio) Timepiece 3.0 monitors.

Phusis,
I haven't heard the Raidho so I can't make a comparison, but the Timepiece sound so natural and they go really low when it's needed. Never strident, and I've never experienced any listener fatigue. They are the most "musical" speakers I've heard. I'd love to hear the Raidho though.

The word "natural" is probably the best way to describe the 3.0 speakers. Everything is balanced so well. Almost every other monitor I've tried seemed to favor certain frequencies, where the 3.0's seem to favor all frequencies, in a very musical way. They are very "truthful" speakers. I think a lot of it has to do with the lower crossover point that Bob uses in conjunction with the waveguide. I've had these speakers for over 2 years now and not once have I felt the need to "search" for something better.
