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?

Besides, live, unamplified acoustic concerts that I attend I would have to say The Wilson WAMM with Halcro was incredible,

The Von Schweikert VR-4 with BAT was also stunning !

Swans 2.2 Ultra High-end Loudspeaker System without a doubt. My previous favorites were the Montana's...
The Swans 2.2 won all of the speaker awards at the 2003 CES show 2 weeks ago and every dealer, manufacturer or rep in the industry I spoke to at the Swan's booth agreed that they were by far the best sound they ever heard.
Of course!!! 16x2 midrange ribbon drivers, 32x2 ribbon tweeters and 4x2 8"woofers were a wall (or should I say 2 walls!) of the most exquisite sound for $68,000 a pair!
