What speaker is the most musical, one you never want to sell?


I've ran into a few "permanent" components over the years, 

I'm wondering what are the most satisfying speaker you've owned?

@destopguy, @wspohn, I've owned three Vandersteen models and agree they are among the most musical and enjoyable of all I heard over the decades.  One of the largest and earliest Vandersteen dealers is Stereo Unlimited in San Diego and they've had most models on floor for demos.  I also bought a RM-9 from them to drive my last pair.

I remember seeing the 4s but don't recall hearing them.  A bit of trivia.  As he went through the numbers for new models Richard used Quatro for that sequence in the line up since he'd already used 4.  If you've never met him he's a bit of a character, but a really good designer.

@elliottbnewcombjr DBX Soundfield 100..  I had a pair of those.  Really cool speakers.  Wish I still had them.  I never heard them with excellent electronics.  Probably had a big Yamaha receiver (R-100) or maybe an Adcom GFA555 at the time. Can't remember.  

Fun perusing all the brands mentioned but one that used to get a LOT of positive recognition here seems to be missing, Fritz speakers. I never owned one but have thought about it based on the fact that I never saw a bad comment about them. Any Fritz owners want to advocate for their speaker?

Have heard many times but do not own still Fritz is definitely a standout that would be on my keeper list.  Maybe someday soon...

Summarizing, my current keeper list, (in order):

  1. Ohm Walsh
  2. Kef Meta
  3. Sonus Faber
  4. Vanatoo
  5. Fritz

Each excels in making beautiful music in different ways that make them "keepers".

Maybe others but can only keep so many at once....
