Speakers for Electronic Music?


Here's what I'm looking for:

1) Budget = ~$2k
2) Electronic music, specifically ambient (50%), IDM (25%), psychill (25%)
3) Speaker type = preferably a pair of loudspeakers

If you care to opine about a good amp to go with it (budget = ~$1k), please do. Most of the music will be coming in from a PC, so an amp with a nice DAC would be a plus.

Yes, a Class D amp will work well; fast, loud and to quote Mapman "articulate."

"Since the majority of modern era electronic is well recorded...a neutral, detail based speaker with an exceptional, fast,transparent tweeter would be my choice...dynaudio, revel, b & w, etc...."

Agree, but it would be wise to audition some speakers. Depending on your front end, some of the current crop of speakers with metal tweeters will be very fatiguing and have bright sounding highs with techno/electronic. Just have to find the right synergy between components.
