Your question is impossible to answer as you haven't even provided us with the intended use of the binoculars. Sorry but my answer to you is to think more about what you actually want in the binoculars and maybe people could at least narrow the list down for you. Please note that there IS no right answer to this question. The right choice for you will be based on your individual circumstances.
If you want a short list for great specifications, then Swarovski, Zeiss and Leica are companies known for the quality of their optics.
I would also like to correct one of the other answers here. The first number designates the magnification and the second the diameter of the objective lens. 8x42 binoculars have 8 times magnification and the front lens has 42mm diameter. Hope that clears that up for you.

A pair of binoculars (the "bi" means two) .... a pair of binoculars has a specification consisting of two numbers, e.g. 8 x 20.
The first number is the diameter of the objective lenses. The greater the diameter the lighter will be the viewed image.
The second number is the magnification.
A pair with greater magnification is more difficult to hold steady so that the viewed image stays centered.
It is up to you to decide which of the many available specifications available is "best."
