The Legacy Whispers blow them all away-WIlson-ML - Apogee- Eggleston - Dunlavy - I know I have owned them all. Matin Logan Quests series is also great for the money.
My favorite speaker is the Dunlavy SC-5. After listening to hundreds of speakers and losing hundreds of dollars I think this is the best money can buy.
I like the ProAc Response Series. I have the Response Fives. The Sonus Faber Amati Homage would be a candidate and some have never wavered on the original Quad ESL's.
I will never forget being totally and completely blown away by a little speaker system called the Beveridge 2SW's. I had never experienced anything like that before from a music system. That was about 25 years ago and I have no doubt that this experience is a primary influence on why I am hooked on the this neurotic hobby. If I could find a used pair I buy them in a heartbeat for sentimental resaons - and fight with my wife later.
I'd have to say the ESP(Esoteric Speaker Products) "Grand Concerts". Not only the most amazing soundstage,but they can also do what very , very few high end speakers can... these babies could rock! Don't know if this company is still around, but check them out if you get a chance. One little note to make is that I haven't had a chance to hear the MAXX or X-1, or any Revel........
