I included the Bose 901 because of the innovative design and the amount of solid research behind it. IMHO the best were the first two generations when they were acoustic suspension and had wood cabinets. I can remember when they first came out, and the audiophiles couldn't get enough of them. You and I are definitely in the minority here.

Your nomination of the KLH Nines and the Tympani Magneplanar is one of many. I left them off because I didn't see them as highly engineered designs. Good nonetheless.

You're alone on both the Allisons and the ESS AMT-1. Both were on my list of considerations. I think both are good selections.

I didn't consider the AR-LST, but it's a viable candidate. I did consider the AR-9. But the Allison is a better example of room boundary considerations.

Sorry, innovative and technologically interesting as it is, the Sunfire isn't full range.

Finally, in your closing comments, you mention the ported Bozaks. Like what, the 201?

Thanks for contributing. I thought this might be fun.
