not having read the complete thread, one should be aware that right after digital tech, speaker tech moves along rather quickly.
meaning each year there will be new contestants, or new itterations of whatever past models as many are revised often.
I suggest annual, or keeper speaker lists, segregated by price and or type, i.e., monitors, high eff, floor standing, active, etc.
I do get the thinking behind developing this topic, but to do it justice so those seeking particular types don't have tos lug through a littany of unrelated versions, more segregation is needed.
as such, each thread will then take care of itself.
well, for a year or so, or until a posted itteration see's its update orexclusion. from the line
Threads on Keeper speakers or desert island sorts however will remain endlessly without need for constant management.
in fact, as subjective as is this hobby and given its wealth og applications and varied arrangements, threads on 'forever' speakers is as good a place to look for new ideas speakerwise, as any more specific supposed ongoing all inclusive posting.
