Speakers, probably more than any other component in the audio chain, have arguably benefited the most from new technologies. Materials, parts, drivers, cabinets, incorporating the latest in measurements, etc. After all, just like a cartridge, the speaker's cabinet job is to hold the driver's motionless and allow them to play.
One thing that I came home with after my visit to Magico is that speakers are really like big boxes to most people. After all, you can pop the top to your amplifier and see its guts. But that's not so easy to do with a speaker. In fact, some think building a speaker is like buying a Madisound speaker kit and nothing could be further from the truth.
So what speaker company do you think is first and foremost pushing the boundaries in speaker design today?
