Which companies deserve a star for Christmas


Which companies gave you a stellar experiences this year in terms of excellent product, and knowledgeable and accessible sales and service?
After spending 45 minutes of hold with AT&T last night and never being able to even talk to a person at several companies this year. It is refreshing that in audio you still can talk to someone quickly who is eager and able to help you.
I nominate in alphabetical order the following companies that gave me stellar experiences this year: Audio Horizons, Ayon, Morrow Audio, Nuforce, Stillpoints, Von Schweikert.

Roger Modjeski at Music Reference - who designed & built my amp this year & personally burned it in for a week at his home to make sure it was flawless when I received it.
Patrick Calmettes of Jadis and Mark O'Brien of Rogue Audio certainly also deserve mention.
