As an audio development engineer, I feel that I am somewhat qualified to answer this question. In fact, the mainstream brands in the audio industry are concentrated in the United States, the United Kingdom, Denmark, and Japan. Every audio company and brand has its own positioning and style. It’s hard to say who is better than whom, nor can we say which are the top ten best brands. I’ll simply list a few here for your reference:
< p>First. American brandSecond. British brand
Third. Danish brand
Fourth. Japanese brands
The last thing I want to say is that although these big brands are very awesome, if you have seen their products, you can take a closer look at the back panels and packaging boxes of their machines. Many of them will have " MADE IN CHINA" logo. In fact, there is basically no gap between domestic audio product technology and foreign countries. The biggest gap lies in the materials and the attitude of focusing solely on audio.
Due to limited space, many brands can be listed one by one. If you feel you have anything to add, please post it in the comment area.
If you want to say which speaker is the best, there is no way to say it. You can only say it has the largest sales volume. Speakers don’t pay much attention to brand. Because high-end audio is actually a niche product that most people don’t understand.
Maybe the brands and models that the audio industry likes now will be replaced by another or some models in a few years. In fact, many of the brands that are more recognized in the audiophile circle are small brands. Maybe the manufacturer is just a copycat factory with not many people. Of course, there are also some big manufacturers or old brands, such as speakers, old ones, Tannoy, JBL, medium B&W, TAD, West Lake, the younger Dynaudio, ATC, PMC, Genelec, the newer ones, AVALON, Weixin, Moyu, Martin, Ruidu... there are many.
Any speaker you buy can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, because tuning it requires knowledge, experience, skills, time, room, and money. Of course you can hire others if you don’t have experience, but speakers have preferences. , and the current level of human science and technology is still not able to make it sound very similar to the real voice, so the styles are different, and you may not necessarily agree with what others say.
First of all, I am honored to be able to answer this question for you. Let us go into this problem together, and now we will discuss it together.
Below I will share with you my personal views and opinions on this issue. I hope my answer can help you, and I hope you will like my sharing.

Top 10 brands, plus the best, this question is a bit broad.
First of all, audio is divided into professional audio and civilian audio. This distinction is almost like the difference between central air conditioners and household air conditioners. They are basically two industries.
Furthermore, each audio technology has its own focus, different technical styles, different usage environments, different usage requirements, and different number of channels. Just like Bosch Audio, it is most commonly used in the open air and at the seaside. Amusement parks and other places later had various performing arts series, radio series, etc., including noise-resistant helicopter headphones and underwater speakers. But if a concert uses Bose speakers as the main sound reinforcement, there must be knowledgeable people secretly snickering.
JBL is a very large audio lineup, covering many aspects, but it feels strange if you get a JBL mixer. It may be available, but it is by no means popular. It is not proved by the fact that it is huge and complete. No matter how good the speakers it makes, there are only a few that are really famous. When it comes to the development process of speakers, the unique technologies of each era are well known. It also has famous failed projects, such as the speakers of the 80,000-person stadium in Shanghai. It has long been a standard in movie sound reinforcement systems because Dolby certification is inextricably linked to it.
As an active speaker, Mayasan has excellent sound reproduction and high cost performance. It is a common configuration used in theaters, but its advantages cannot be shown in small systems.
Aibaqi is the only professional audio brand that Tongli Electric Acoustics refuses to give up. Its sweet tone is also the designated use in the Grammy Awards. Its speakers are famous and hard to recommend. Once they are debugged, they will Gives a profound impression.
There are also some brands of audio technology innovations that have become popular for imitation. The emergence of line array speakers compresses the treble into a columnar shape through the throat, changing the spherical wave into a cylindrical wave. In terms of directivity, Indicators such as attenuation rate have been greatly improved.
Planar speakers are another technical route, changing point sound sources into area sound sources. Although the sound quality is not as good as traditional speakers, they are unique in some special occasions.
The sound transmitted by carrier waves has given the concept of long-distance directional sound pressure level a place. Non-traditional speakers using these technologies can be seen at sea and on helicopters.
The application of aluminum ribbon tweeters of more than 500 watts, bone conduction speakers, ultrasonic waves, and sub-low frequencies has upgraded the speaker technology. …
As for the top ten brands, it’s better not to care about them.
As an audiophile, some of the big and old brands in the past have not progressed and improved. On the contrary, many brands that used to be in the middle and lower reaches have continued to improve. This is my understanding of the top ten brands. .
1. B&W (Bowers & Wilkins)

The above is arranged from my perspective. Everyone has their own preferences for radish and cabbage. If you feel that something is inappropriate, you can share it together.
It is estimated that no manufacturer dares to say that it is the best audio brand. No one dares to draw a conclusion as to which of the top ten most awesome brands is located. Audio is subdivided into CD players, CD turntables, decoders, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, integrated power amplifiers, FMAM tuners, speakers (active and passive), signal cables, speaker cables, including video products. There are so many categories including Blu-ray players, projectors, LCD TVs, subtitle machines, cable preparers, and projection screens. How do you compare them? To compare, which product performs best in the same category and within the same price range. For example, among the 100,000-80,000 level CD players, who has the best performance can be ranked in the top ten. Like the LS3/5A speakers back then, BBC, Le Jazz, Rain After the Rain, and AE all produced them (authorized by the BBC). In the end, audiophiles unanimously agreed that Le Jazz has the best sound quality. As a monitor speaker, it has the highest degree of restoration... Every Each brand has its own unique products, all of which are carefully crafted and cost-effective, so the best ones cannot be ranked out. Like Mark Levinson, McIntosh, CELLO, Martin Lugen, B&W, British Treasure, AE, Noblesse, Tannoy, FOCAL, Jediss, audionote, golden voice, Wedia, Dali, Yili, Shiba, Chaoao, Berlin Sound, Shen Gong, AR... among the high-end brands, who should be ranked in the top ten?
