So lets have your top ten members. --- MANY THANKS ---

- Soundlab A-1
- Apogee Duetta Signature (there is no other speaker that even comes close to it at the price - absolutely worth buying almost 20 years later)
- Apogee Diva (still worth buying 20 years later...)
- Celestion SL700 (still worth buying 20 years later...)
- Quad ESL-63 (sill worth buying 30 years later...)
- Infinity IRS Beta (still worth buying 20 years later)
- Martin Logan CLS IIz
- Wilson Benesch Bishop
- Magnepan 20R
- Proac Response 3.8
- Audio Research AR-18 (eleventh choice just to throw in a bit of college days nostalgia...)
That's "Alon" backwards. Just a phenomenal speaker that performs with the best at a fraction of the cost. Tremendously accurate and organic sounding.
JBL Century 100s, Dalquist panels from the 70's, Martin-Logan CLSIIz with Kinergistic SW800 subwoofer towers --
the 100s had the most incredible midrange and with a simple equalizer accenting the treble and bass, the 100s were incredible rock and roll speakers.
