While I've used the QSC DCA line of amps for a long time and in many theatres, and will continue to use them as a reliable and good sounding amp, the MC2 has proven itself to me to be a relatively unreliable amplifier. I have one site with them and I think they have all failed at one time or another and they don't sound notably better for all of their trouble.
This is an excellent thread because of the way the question is worded. The word "Favorite" doesn't really specify which priorities we using to determine our "favorite" speaker.
In first hand conversations that I've had with Dr Toole and Dr Olive, there is no doubt which speakers in the Revel and JBL line measure, and are widely agreed upon in double blind tests, as the best - and it isn't even close. However, when you include other priorities like appearance, nostalgia and others, the answers change significantly.
My personal preference is to stick with the work product of the speaker and that is the sound output. Therefore, my choices would be the Revel Salon2 and the JBL M2. If I were to consider cosmetics, then the Synthesis speakers (Everest) would be be my choice. If I were to have a vintage yearning, the L100 is easily the choice.
It all depends on what you're looking for in a speaker.
