Best High End Audio Manufacturer???


Wow, what a loaded question!! Nevertheless... which company has earned the right to be called number one, king-of-the-hill, top dog, etc. Is this even a fair question? Probably not. Is this your chance to make your objective/subjective voice heard? Yes indeed. So if you had to boil it down to ONE HIGH END COMPANY that more than any other represents the paramount position, THE EPITOME OF THIS HOBBY, this is your time to cast your vote.

I'm a big fan of CJ tubed equipment, Focal speakers, Esoteric digital gear Siltech cables and Stillpoints resonance control products. Over the years, I've been very pleased with the reliability and sonic signature of each company's equipment and, particularly, of their synergy when used together.
I have been very happy with the 4 Krell units I have owned (HTS 5.1, KSA-250, HTS 7.1 and TAS). Would love to own some MBL gear one day, short of winning the lottery, probably never going to happen.
If I had to name one, it would be MBL - their products, across the board, are astonishingly good...
Audio research and Macintosh based on number of paying customers I'd guess.

For speakers Klipsch magnepan and Ohm would get my vote based largely on longevity and number of happy customers.
