Never heard of any of them
But like Genelec I think IK multimedia are more studio monitors than home speakers
Isn’t this one of the most boring threads in here for a long long time. Trying to pass time as best as I can considering I’m since 7 weeks enduring my walker ortos & waiting for my second shot of covid-19 vaccine
Well, at least you're staying positive
Pointless!

Hmm, this question is loaded from the get go. First off, what constitutes a best speaker? Clearly not all speakers have been objectively measured so it's hard to say which one is best. Then, even from the same brand, some speakers are good, some not. It all depends.

So it's very, very hard to say even which speaker, let alone brand, let alone country of origin is the best at producing speakers.

I say Brazil. There's something about the local dialect, that sweet sound of Brazilian Portuguese. There's nothing else like it.

Speakers should reflect their country of origin - like sports cars.

This brings up another hobby of mine because strangely enough fountain pens do...

The greatest speakers you ask?
“great-1. a. very large in size, extent, or intensity”
http://alex-audio.com/en/prod/world-biggest-speaker/
Glad that’s solved. :cool:

Size matters huh? I have an 8" sub that can reproduce the same lows as this 80" sub, in fact to be really accurate my sub can go 1hz lower. Power on the other hand....... That's a nifty little video for the giant sub, predictably you would be advised to turn the bass way down to listen to it though
