I think Lutron’s Radio Ra should definitely be in there, but Lutron tells me they were only allowed to submit one item. Ra was a true game-changer.

The Apogee full range ribbon speakers would be in mine, as they were the first to really force amplifiers to drive low impedance loads, and they sounded terrific (honorable mention to the B&W;801’s).

I would also include the original Krell KMA mono amplifiers, the first real high current/low impedance amplifiers able to handle such loads.

While we’re at it, the SOTA Sapphire turntable with it’s unique hanging suspension, the Rotel RCD-850 CD player (the first to get audiophile attention) and Original Monster Cable - which launched an entire new category of product (& debate) in the industry.

Here are a few which should be nominated…
In no particular order/.

- The Lexicon 500T (& the later revision 700T) remote.

- The original Niles Intellicontrol.

- The Marantz RC-2000 “remote of the Gods”.

- Stewart Luxus Deluxe ScreenWall fixed screen.

- Draper Access recessed in-ceiling motorized screen.

- Sunfire True Subwoofer (a real game changer)

- Fujitsu PDS-4203… Probably the first plasma to ever be sold under $10k.  (probably also the first plasma most integrators were able to see in person)

- Zenith Pro-900x CRT projector.

- Sony G90 9” CRT projector (still the best).

- Faroudja VP-400 line-quadrupler.

- Pioneer Elite CLD-99 laserdics player, the standard by which the others were judged.

- Denon AVR-2500, this is when Denon stepped up to be recognized as a top player in surround sound receivers.

- Nakamichi RC-505 auto-flip cassette.

- Triad Gold HT Package (Gold LCRs with the “dispersion lens”, the Gold Surrounds, and the Gold PowerSub)

- (tie) Niles JobSite wallplates, and the Leviton QuickPort wallplate system…
Before these, there were a lot of ugly homemade plates!!

- Russound A-Bus… whether you loved it or hated it, it definitely changed the rules of adding rooms of sound.

I probably have a few dozen more off the top of my head, but this is a great start.
