#98 Dan Clark Audio Aeon X Closed Discontinued eBay
Pros: Measured response gives it an excellent Harman preference score of 82 with a 1.74 dB spread. Bass sits close to target and holds down to 20 Hz, so low end sounds full without bloat.
Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Its 1.74 dB spread is less even than the best measured sets.
