Best used speaker for $2,000 for rock music

IF you can find a pair of Snell B-Minors, you will be VERY happy. Around $1700, used. They play loud, have lots of base, thanks to 12" side firing woofers, and are known as great rock'n'roll speakers. They play everything really well, but really shine with rock and big orchestral stuff. Trouble is . . . it's hard to find anyone who wants to sell them.

Source Technology has a new speaker - 8.3DX - that should fit your needs --- if there is no dealer in your area, you can purchase a new pair direct in your used price range.
I own the 8.2DX and 90% of the music I listen to is Classic Rock and these do the job quite nicely -- the new 8.3's go lower in the bass.
800 - 599 - 7558
I don't have a finacial interest but I recently received the info on both speaker models if you want me to email them to you.
Best of Luck

You need to add Von Schweikert VR2s to your short list. In the right room, these speakers do it all and do it extremely well. This includes dynamic rock or metal. And best of all, they can be found on the used market for well under what you are willing to spend.
