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 still think my B&W Matrix802s3 sound great but the last 2 speakers I heard were new 802 Diamonds with Mark Levinson gear, at Audioden in LakeGrove Long Island. And Wilson Sophias, with I think Linn Equipment. Talk about a disapearing act and sound stage

For best full scale real world speaker I give the nod to Dyanaudio for their C4's. Music is performed through these speakers in full measure and in a disarmingly natural way..no artiface, just pure unadulterated sound. I don't miss my Wilson's, B&W's, Dunlavy's or Magnapans.
