Hall Of Fame products are a collection of products from any price range and type that I consider good enough to bring up every time I talk about audio. If you’re looking for something cool, you should check whether a product reached this level, it usually indicates that the product is good enough for a few years of usage, both technically, build quality and sonic quality wise.
