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?

Rockport Arrakis in a purposely built and tuned room mated with all Gryphon electronics (Mirage and Colosseum) is the best setup I've ever heard. I just can't imagine anything better, only different. The Clearaudio Statement turntable might have helped too.
I do not believe the Sunray is better than the Arrakis. I listened to Sunrays in Hong Kong. However the room wasn't as good as the room the Arrakis was in. Also IMO there is no question that the cabinet construction and overall build quality is better with the Arrakis.
