Do they make Speakers For Rap/Rock


It seems that from all the discussions and reveiws, I have read that 99% of the speakers that are reveiwed are done with Classical, opera, jazz or other like music. My question is; Do any of the high end speaker manufacturers make audiophile speakers that are designed for the Rap, Hip-hop, hard rock, loud volume listener???

Tacmc5 - A lot of the responses here are from people who are clearly close-minded about music, and really don't know what they're talking about.

To answer your question - Yes, definitely, many high-end speakers and other components are GREAT for rap and rock. Wilson definitely comes to mind. Recently, I spent some time with the Alexandrias at my favorite high-end dealer. I played Snoop Dogg, Guns n Roses, Yo La Tengo, Radiohead, and lots of other stuff. My dealer was in the room when I was playing the Snoop. He loved it, as I don't think he had heard this type of music on these speakers before. It was incredible!

For all of you playa-haters who claim "no rap is decently recorded, blah blah" or "anyone who likes rap should be shopping at best buy" sorry, but you are just plain wrong. Listen to Tupac's "all eyez on me," anything produced by Dre, Nas Illmatic, anything by Tribe called Quest, De la Sol, Biggie "Ready to Die," the list goes on. All sound great, and these are original, masterful pieces of art.

The better the system, the more fun the listening.

Von Schweikiert would probably also be good
Tacmc5,

Just for the record I do own some rap music and I enjoy it too. I started collecting about 15 years ago with RunDMC. I just loved their version of "Walk this Way" done together with Aerosmith...even the video was awesome!

My daughter and her friends love Rap/Hip/Hop stuff...perhaps those that don't like it are simply betraying their age!
Xiekitchen,darn good ideas !

rotating woofers,maybe with a swirling design on the woofers & adjustable speed,i think that would be a million seller,i do know that as an option the "pimp daddy" will have multi colored neon lights placed inside its 12 tuned bass ports that blink along with the beat,there will also be a cigarette lighter built in the horn lens so the buyer dont have to search for a light should they need to stoke a blunt.

my heads starting to spin just thinking about all the blinking lights & spinning woofers :)
