Audiophile Speakers for Rock, HipHop and Techno


I love many genres of music. Having a hard time finding a speaker that sounds great with hip hop, techno and rock. Suppose I should mention I've auditioned the Dynaudios Hertiage Specials and Sonus Faber Oylmpia Nova 1s. They sound fantastic with classical, acustic guitar, female voices etc... But what audiophile speaker ..especially at the 7-8k price point doesn't. Idk..  Im starting to think I need two sets of speakers. Sonus Faber Olympica Novas sound beautiful...then maybe a pair for other genres of music. Any suggestions for speakers that sound great for hip hop rock and tecno? I'm only able to do bookshelves...and I do have a pair of RELs already.

My pwr amp is a coda no.8 v2 @ 250w

Oh god……..I’m sorry everyone BUT I’m going to say it, I don’t usually recommend these because of the crazy owners who do more harm than anything else but……

I really don’t know of a better manufacturer for speakers for this type of music. DIs and Moab’s are perfect for your needs. Don’t even need sub.

Did you guys read what Ralph said earlier? Simple logic dictates that there exist no speakers better suited to particular genres of music. Bad and good tendencies apply across the spectrum.

Sorry but don't care what "ralph" says, not even sure what he said but what you just said is a false statement.  Even now that I notice he said he can only do bookshelf speakers, there is still a difference in how a speaker is "voiced" that lends itself to sounding better with certain types of music.
