Concert Experience for $5k?


I have a budget of $5k for new/used stereo speakers.
I have a VPI turntable, PrimaLuna Dialogue preamp and a Cary Audio V12 tube amp. (yeah, the one with 12 EL34’s sticking out of it) I’ve got quality gear and plenty of horsepower.

I am chasing the rock concert experience. When you’re at a live show drums have a sharp attack and crack. Bass/kick drums have a punch you can feel. ....that’s what I want to feel when I play a live album.

Which speakers - new or used - would you recommend to recreate that rock concert feeling?

Correct, not a chance in Hell you could appreciate much of anything through Anticables.....gotta love that mindset that purchases good gear and then buys coat hangers for IC's and speaker cables.
Thanks for all of the great input!  I can't believe how many people have responded with Zu.  They've moved up to the top of my list.
