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?

My new 3 way front loaded corner horn with 8 -15in drivers, 2 compression mid horns and 2 fostex amk2 tweeters. I havent heard anything else thats close except goto or Ale systems. And I could use these drivers if I had the cash.

FOCAL (JM Lab) has a new speaker due August 1st 2008, that I had the honor of listening to this past weekend in France. I was brought to tears many times listening and enjoying music that I had never been so involving to my ears and consuming to my heart up to this point. I wish I could say more, being privileged to have a few hours to really get to know the product over a couple of days in the factory. But, keep checking out the website to find out more. Yes, it's the best speaker I've ever heard, coming from someone who can hook up a variety of brands at my disposal I feel as thought I can comfortably say I've experienced it and know it.
