  Your ''best kept secret'' speaker choice ?
Some manufacturers have the financial means to plaster magazines with ads. For other, they are still at the word-of-mouth stage, and many will not get past this line.

I was wondering what less-than-well-known, or obscure speaker out there stand out as particularly gifted both in sonics and value ? Could be in any price category....

ATC is not well known but if it wasn't for B&W I think I would have bought them.
Ascend Acoustics CBM-170 2 way for $328 is very good.
I think everyone should have a pair of some single driver speakers, even if they only cost $60. It's pretty cool what they do with vocals:
