Objectively speaking, what's the best speaker?

So, objectively speaking, what's the most accurate, or honest, speaker made?


Summa speakers, designed, built and sold by my good friend Earl Geddes.

Only, when Earl's not looking, you need to beef up their bottom ends with subwoofers. ;-)



AFAIK, Earl recommends the use of subs with all of his speakers, including the Summas.


I'm sure that's true of the smaller Summas, but Earl has 3 of his largest Summas in his listening room, and he has claimed in the past that said room has 3 subs in it due to their presence.

The woofer he uses in his big Summas is probably good down to 32 Hz, but 16 not so much.

I thought he has 3 Summas and 3 subs in his listening room.

The comments here would seem to back this up:
