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?

A speaker with a frequency response like mountain Everest can never be characterised as the Best! Cummon guys at least let's agree on some basic things!

Happy new year!

the clements rt7, the spica tc50, the rogers ls3/5, the acoustic energy ae2, the epi 100, lots of others.....
Engineers know very well that the square wave is the fundamental frequency with the odd order harmonics in proper phase very similar to music. And In music, the notes are complex waveforms, consisting of fundamental frequencies and harmonics very similar to the square wave. So if the loudspeaker cannot reproduce a square wave much less it cannot and will not reproduce music accurately. THAT IS A FACT AND NOT AN OPINION!

So the best speakers that I have ever heard are high power true minimum phase speakers that obviously reproduce square waves. This was accomplished using my own high power true minimum phase crossover that I personally design.

I was the Chief technician at Dunlavy Audio Labs and actually did accomplish what they call the Holy Grail of loudspeaker design, a flat amplitude frequency and phase response using a high power true minimum phase crossover.

True Dat !

Squarewave.... didn't JD speakers use odd order X-over's, i believe very similar to the Duntech's prior.
