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 heard a pair of Analysis Audio Epsilons with all Electrocompaniet electronics,Soundstring cables that pulled me into the music like nothing else ive heard!!!I truly understand why fans of planar/ribbon speakers are such a devoted lot!!!
The Analysis Audio ,think it was the size down from their large model,unbelievable sound!!Surprised more people do not own them!If I had the money ,,that is the speaker I would have,,incredible bass too!
Raytheprinter, the Analysis Audio model is the Omega.,,,,Vladimir,Yes,,that is the model,,Incredible sound,filled every inch of a fairly large room!Driven by Electrocompaniet amp,,not sure of model,,and analog source,Fairly easy to drive,as I think the amps were no more than 120 watts or so.Jaw dropping sound!Not the most expensive speakers ive heard,,but the best sound I have heard!
Analysis Audio and Krell LATs,One of these years I have to attend RMAF so I can hear more of a variety of speakers.But these are the best that I have heard.
Best Ive heard,Analysis Audio ,I think it was the Omega.Im very surprised they are not seen often here.
Analysis Audio ,The best I have heard ! I have not heard all the top dogs ,but they impressed me . They dont seem to have a lot of dealers in the states.
Lucky974,I listed Analysis Audio as the best speakers I have heard.To me they were jaw dropping good. Hope you have the chance to hear them properly.
