The best speaker you ever heard?


In my opinion, the speaker is by far the most important part of the audio system. After all, it is the only part you hear. OK, the other stuff really matters a lot, but without a great speaker... No go.

I am a bit 'speaker-obsessed' I guess, and now I am wondering: What are the best speakers you have ever heard, and what made them the best?

I am searching allready for years for an alternative. My SL600s are still in operation.
Blue Ridge Sound Engineering HR-1. Hands down the most accurate, most musical speaker I have ever heard anywhwere, at any price! And they're not expensive!

Macrojack, your zealousness and staunch defense of the Zu boys/speakers, though a bit "out there" has been dead on. How come you're now selling the Zu Definition Pros? What gives with that? warren :)
Warrenh,
He spells it out right in his ad:
"I have received numerous emails from people who can't quite believe I am selling my speakers. I am not selling my own pair. I am a "Listening Post" for Zu and I believe I am the only one in the United States demonstrating this model."

I just bought a used pair of ATC SCM150ASL's after hearing the same at Telarc (from a personal demo by Michael Bishop, nontheless). Hopefully I'll add them to this thread.
I also have a pair of Ridge Street Sasons coming for my other room.....I wonder which will make this list (both have been previously mentioned ). I love choices.
