The best speaker you ever heard?


In my opinion, the speaker is by far the most important part of the audio system. After all, it is the only part you hear. OK, the other stuff really matters a lot, but without a great speaker... No go.

I am a bit 'speaker-obsessed' I guess, and now I am wondering: What are the best speakers you have ever heard, and what made them the best?

I now own a pair of second hand Ocellia Tilias. I think the manufacturer has discontinued them in favor of the Celia. In my own home, they are the best speakers I have owned since, due to financial woes, I gave up my Clements RT-7's.
Driven by a newly acquired 50 watt 47 Labs Gaincard, I strongly believe they will be chez moi for a long time.
They are highly room interactive, so positioning them is an adventure and a learning experience, since they exhibit some of the characteristics of direct/reflecting speakers.
They are a resonant cabinet, single driver design. Accuracy without sacrificing musicality, imaging, they have all that.
I can't wait 'till I have owned them long enough to feel I've reached their full potential.
