Best speaker for rock music


What is a great, reasonably priced speaker/studio monitor that will really excel on rock/dance/techno? I would imagine this same type of system would also sound great for home theater. I have a small to medium size room, 15' x 13' with cathedral ceilings. I already have a nice audiophile rig but it has the familiar problems with most compressed rock and techno recordings. Thanks, Mike

You should also check out Genelec Active/Powered monitors. While not cheap, these speakers can sustain very high spl's and at the same time remain very true to the source. Put a serious preamp and cables in front of these guys and you're set.
Cornfed: I can't even find the Symbols on their webpage. Are these really new? Mike
Well, do they have any California dealers south of San Jose? Heck, might as well drive to Boulder. Mike
I don't want to start another thread within this one. Email me for a list of notes that i've accumulated from modding more than a few sets of their older series of speakers. Sean >
