The best speaker you ever heard?

Walk-around the musicians in your living room. Real palpable imaging with great dynamics and real bass.

Heard some top-end ATCs yesterday. $16K per pair is a little out of my price range (although that does include a power amp in each box). That said, these were the most incredible speakers I've never heard. I mean "never" heard. I felt like Count Basie, the Roches, Leo Kottke, were playing in the room for me. Astonishing! (thanks, Chris, for the audition!).

I dont really have alot of experience listening to higher end systems, but from my experience wihtout a doubt the best sounding speakers are Definitive Tech's BP300TL.

Analogous to best wine/beer/food/etc.. you ever tasted! I don't think it's worth an answer because it depends so much on personal preferences, atmosphere, mood, occasion, etc...

The best speakers I ever heard was a cheap pair of bookshelf Fisher speakers on top of my old bed while I was making love the 1st time to my then-girlfriend! I can't repeat the same experience with the much more expensive MA Studio 6 with the same person anymore ... Sad ..

The Wisdom Audio M-75's with the Parasound JC-1 amplifiers (4) Monos make a very serious statement in High-end audio. Another very impressive speaker line is the Acapella. These speakers are made in Germany. They utilize the Ionic Tweeter that produces the most extended, open, and natural highs that I have ever heard.
