   Hermon Hosmer Scott is without doubt one of the greatest engineers in   
   the history of Hi-Fi audio.   
      
   ** He may make the top 300, but not the top 10.   
      
   The most famous, by far, is Alan Blumlein.

   Peter Walker ( of QUAD ) is deservedly famous for his unique ES speakers and   
   many tube and SS amplifier designs plus his nemesis is Harold Leak gets an   
   honourable mention.   
      
   The most successful modern era audio design guru is possibly Bob Carver -   
   famous for Phase Linear & Carver et alia.
