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?

The best, for me was the Fulton Premiers. Mssive speakers that had some unique qualities that over all have never been equalled. They had an ability to properly reproduce harmonics and dynamics without any cross distortion. Each instrument, voice, whatever stood alone with its' unique timbre, dynamics and spacial orientaion unfettered by anything else going on in the music. It also was unique in presenting a proper vertical or sizing of the source, something few others could even come close to doing. It went up and down with low distrotion and with quality transients. So what am I using now- the same speakers- 20 years later and laughing at evrthing else that comes along.
They still sound like what music reproduction is all about.
