Rock and roll speakers?

That pair of snell c5's is what I would be looking at; I have a friend in Minnesota that owned a pair and only played classic rock music on them and I thought they always did a great job.
I play the listed music as well and find my nola ko's and soundlab m2's handle it with no problem; exception is the price is higher than the question but if you can find used maybe the price might work.

Ads l910. Easy to drive, easy to listen and dynamic as hell.

So what's it going to be?

Thank you all for the inputs. Very informative.Seems like a good amount of answers are pointing towards Klipsch or JBL. I will look around and try to listen to different models.Keep the opinions coming.

Rock-

older speaker-wise, look no further than Infinity Crescendo series (early 1990's). These are still outstanding for Rock/Hard Rock/Metal music.

A newer design and my reference loudspeaker- Thiel CS 2.4 or CS 2.7. Yes, these will go beyond your stated budget, but, you will look no further. Plays (no pun) Rock music of all kinds, as well as, Jazz / Classical to boot.
These babies love high -power / high-current amps.

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
