Speakers for metal, hard rock ... also SS amp

I need recommendations for people who play a lot of metal and hard rock. I don't want to be dependent on a sub for the bass slam.

Speakers should be in the $4-8K used range and amp should be high quality.

I don't want it to be too harsh, though, because I ocassionally listen to ambient, female vocals, soundtracks, etc.

ALl the suggestions are very good. I'd like to add to your list though:

Speakers -
B&W N801, N802, 803D, 802D, Wilson Sophia(already recommended)

Amps(you need big, powerfull, smooth amps)-
McIntosh MC501 monoblocks, Krell FPB300 and up, McCormack DNA-500, Levinson.

But you didn't mention the room size, preamp, source. Is the room treated? What type of sound do you like? What is the budget for the amp?
