Legacy Focus 20/20 you can find used around $4K. (3) 12 inch woofers in each speaker....that will move some air in a big room.

Check out the AV123 LS6 or LS9. These are huge and ROCK with the best of them. The LS6 got an excellent review in Tone Audio online magazine. http://www.tonepublications.com/spotlight/the-ultimate-rock-speaker/ |
Rockingest speakers I've heard (don't own) in a long time were the GR Research open baffle Super-V. Powered integrated sub and co-axial high eff woofer/tweeter. 97 dB. Easily made >100 dB @ RMAF driven by dodd tube amp w 2 el-84s a side; maybe 18 wpc. Incredible boogie factor w stomach-churning bass (IIRC, 375 wpc, dual internal powered subs/side). The Mccormack is a great amp and w 10x the power should easily produce concert level spls in a room that is probably 3-4x the volume. Cost of the complete kit is $2500 and since its not a box speaker, you should be able to get a local woodshop to make them the "cabinet" and stay well under budget. Maybe go for the platinum upgrade for the McCormack, or sell it and get a higher powered pp tube amp than the Dodd. You WILL be rockin' |
