Vandersteen 4 and Genesis V should be added to the long list of those already mentioned, along with any half-way decent speaker properly placed in a great-sounding room! The room has been the deciding factor (and most severe limitation) with every system I've owned.
I like Coincident Super Eclipse or Joseph RM33si but haven't seen these speakers in other posts. Am I wrong should I get out there and audition more speakers?
We had a set of Maggies (Tympani I-D) for about twenty years. I don't know they're in the 10 best but we did enjoy those speakers. Replaced them with Wisdom Audio M-75. I will seriously argue these are in the 10 best. The most impressive thing they do right is "everything".
Snell AIIIi speakers are all around contenders. And the Apogee Divas with the right setup.
Paradigm Active 40s, when given proper ICs and power cords, stands and a excellent pre and source. When all of these are done you will have one of the finest FULL RANGE speakers money can buy.
