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....

Well, how ab out the company that has smoked every loudspeaker company out there the last 2 years at CES. Who could that be???...VMPS??? Yes!!!!!......No one ever seems to refer to this company for high end loudspeakers. Yet they have won best loudspeaker two years in a row at CES. Last year with a loudspeaker (RM-40) that retails for 4800.00. You really can't argue with these results.
"VMPS......No one ever seems to refer to this company for high end loudspeakers" - that would be an oxymoron.

Here is a third vote for Reimer speakers. I have the floor standing Wind River GS model. I compared them to the Maggie, Merlins w/ BAM, Osborne, Montana, Linn and Coincidents. I love them and have no regrets! And Rick is a great guy to deal with and learn from about speaker design.
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:
