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?

Srt6, I retain the same opinion I have had since I first heard Bose speakers compared with Advents in the early '70s. The dealer who demonstrated them for me exclaimed, "They are a real breakthrough!" I said maybe, but I will keep my Advents and any time I want to listen to elevator music, I will visit a friend with Bose speakers.

I would have to say hands down, it would be Venture speakers. The crystal clarity of the highs with it's transparency, the mids with it's life like human voicing, and the incredible slam in their mid-bass and bass. And on top of that, those beautiful enclosures!

Tinujatinpatel,

What is this "Good base response!" you speak of?

Talk2me, I would agree about the Venture speakers as heard in the Weiss suite at CES, but I don't know how they would compare with my Tidals.
