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?

Really? Nearly 100%? Well, the nasty little Yammie NS10 is ubiquitous too.

I think studios have different requirements to many domestic situations and often master at higher volumes than much of our home listening is done at. If one lives in an apartment and has to respect one's neighbours, one wants speakers that are enticing at low levels.
