Any serious 'Best of' list should be broken down into different types of tranducers such as horns, dynamic speakers, line source, planar magnetic/ESL & hybrid, then broken down into price categories like Sterephile do. I am sure you would find Magico, Gryphon, Vandersteen, Rockport, MBL, Goldmund, Joseph Audio, Tannoy, Avantegarde, Tune Audio, Genesis, ML, Magnepan & Graz/TSW-resto'd Apogees in there. Some of the Marten and LV speakers are fun as well.
