You should try to experience classic large JBL, Altec, or above mentioned Klispch. No problem with rock and fun for jazz.
You should also try to listen to Martin Logan Summits. They have nice deep bass and do not compress like older models and can actually rock. Then you have a wonderful stat sound and stage for jazz, vocals, and subtle effects and such. They do that splendidly. In my opinion a bargain in that they are adequate for rock and excel with jazz.
Have Fun!
