What's your favorite boutique speaker maker


Seeing a few discussions recently about Fritz made me curious about what other artisan speaker shops are out there. 

I'll cast my vote for Louis at Omega Speakers in CT. His high efficiency full range Alnico drivers, impeccable craftsmanship and very reasonable prices make a compelling option. I've had some very nice speakers over the years but these put a smile on my face like no others could. My search is over. 

No affiliation with him, here's a link to the ones he built for me the beginning of this year.

Audiokinesis. Duke is a great guy (probably best-known for his Swarm subwoofers). His regular speakers have always been a good combination of performance batting far out of his price points. Easy to drive and good on making bass for the size of the speaker without colorations.
Tony Minasian of Tonian Labs.
His latest, the G6, would wipe the floor clean of a lot of speakers out there, 
leaving room for all the dropped jaws.

All the best,
