Is there a perfect speaker?


A philosophical question but one I am currently facing. I have three setups and they all do something (but definitely not everything) perfectly. Try as I might, I can't be happy with one setup because my other setups have some superior characteristics. There seems to be a drive in audio to monogamy but I love more than one. Help.

My speakers (all monitors) are in the $3k range / amps $2k range. Is there some sort of monogamous nirvana out there or is it just more searching?

What everyone else said. Speakers more than some other parts of the chain, all have mutually exclusive choices. I love my Daedalus DA-RMas and the test, as others have said, is that I don't want to stop listening and wonder sometimes, what better, would sound like. Are they perfect, no, by going for high sensitivity, you have to lose some base extension. That's fine by me, it means I can use low powered SET and other Class A amps that I like.

Some of the top brands of "High end", mega expensive speakers, unlistenable, for any length of time. I'm not criticising, but am thinking of Wilson and Focal speakers here. They just are'nt for me.

If there is a message, when you've found what your looking for, stop looking and enjoy.
