Speakers for Rock Music


I am looking to get a second pair of speakers for rock music.All my electronics are rotel.I currently have the B&W 683's but am looking for something that will kick butt for 70's and 80's rock.Looking for full range speakers with lots of bass.Price under 2000.00 and will buy used.Thanks

If you want to rock, nothing is better than a pair of GALE GS401A.
Bass frequencies are full with great body and pace, in the middle you can get electrostatic type of clarity with bloom, while the highs are so extended, clear and transparent that you can feel to approach the K2 summit. These clues are good enough for a rock buff, in addition as a bonus their image is so wide and deep that can satisfy most if not all the High End guys.
They need a good amplifier for sure but not an extremely energetic or neurotic one. Very good match with Musical Fidelity A370, Chord SPM800, DPA 100S, Michell Alecto, even a pair of masterly modified Quad 405 can transport you in the Rock Heaven.
Fantastic!
If anyone is interested, I have a pair new (unopened) of Canton Karat 770 DC speakers for sale.
They are very reasonably priced. I won them in a contest and I don't need them.
I found B&W P6s very good for rock when I owned them. They shook the rafters perhaps better than any other speaker I have owned. Could probably be had for not much used these days if you can find them.
