Your ''best kept secret'' speaker choice ?

dahlquist dq10. i bought one - for little money - for my second system. with a good amplifier like my 20 watt class a monotriode vaic valve 52 b it is nothing less ... then a dream. the human voices eg are simply unbeliaveble, word class... a speaker with 30 years!!! they are some minor flaws (imaging ore bass) but in specific areas is a speaker hard to beat at quite any price class. (my other speakers are eidolon's and I have had dozen of speakers in the last 20 years, maggies, logan's, quad's, ensemble's etc etc)

One only hears of the Apogee Scintilla in derogatory amp eater terms occasionally. Almost no one has heard them. That is a pity. IMHO the Scinilla is the greatest speaker ever devised. It is the only speaker I know that is fully articulate, seamless, flat lined, and powerful, at all audible frequencies, from below hearing (20 hz) to beyond hearing (20khz).

Silverline Sonata MK.lll. The best kept secret for now but not for very long. I was blown away with the musicality of these speakers, the effortless tonal balance, smoothness, detail and extension both the high's and low's.
Visual stunning and handcrafted with the finest materials.

just who can keep a secret ?

It did get attention though..... as all do

...another nod for Von Schweikert. yeah, some secret ;*)

Gale 401c in teak, circa 1908. Or, was it 1980? Probably the latter.
