5 best selling newish speaker brands in 2013?


Thinking about looking at speakers, but there are too many. What brands are the most popular? Please keep it to 5 or it defeats the purpose...thanks.

Hopefully it won't just be B&W, Magnepan, the usual suspects. Say, stars in the range 1000 to 4000 -ish.

Thanks.

Thanks Tom and thanks everyone, too many promising speakers to comment on all, lots of names I have wanted to check out.

Tom yes it was UK Linn I listened to; nice system technology, but the sound was a bit sterile I felt.

I will simply have to take a trip next summer as I said up the coast. I wonder how the east coast would be? West is good, San Diego, and cities all the way up to San Francisco. And you can sleep on the beach.

I can take the One SCs with me to have a consistent benchmark.

I have been thinking though that the One SCs might be OK with a sub. 14x18 is not that huge. I don't use a sub in my study 11x12 or so and it's fine. The ceiling will be high at 14 though.

Thanks all,
Jim
