IYO, Best speaker for rock music under $1k

Admittedly, I am a complete newbie to this stuff. I have been toying around with the idea of purchasing a pair of B & W 685 bookshelf speakers but I have not extensively rummaged through the plethora of other great brands. It all gets a little overwhelming to be honest. I mainly listen to rock music and am wondering, in your opinions, what are the best speakers for under $1,000?

I second Elevick's recommendation. I would add Definitive Technologies 7004 tower with the powered sub built in. Bought used of course. They rock.

Agree with the guys above...the older VMPS tower speakers are darn good rock speakers also. There is a pair for sale here right now ($800)...but he won't ship.

If you've got the amp for it, I'd suggest PSB Stratus Gold's (or possibly Silver's, but the bronze is too lean for rock).
