Suggestions for rock music


I listen to mostly rock based music (no classical, no jazz) at moderate levels in a mid size room and am curious on speaker suggestions. I did a ton of upgrades this past year to every piece of my system except my speakers. I think the SongTowers are absolutely amazing for $2k, but I am wondering if I have surpassed them now with my electronics?

Salk SongTowers

I read a lot of posts about all these higher dollar speakers you guys are running but I never know what type of music you are listening to. I spoke with Jim at Salk and for my tastes he recommends the next step as the HT2-TL's at $4500 (the smaller HT1-TL's not a good match). I am sure the HT2-TL's are incredible, but the only thing putting me off is the size of them. Any suggestions on something smaller in stature that will give me that realism, imaging, and sound stage?

If your room is mid-sized and you don't listen to rock music "loud", then really your options are wide open. If you like your Songtowers then, well first of all not a big surprise, second of all, might as well stick with the manufacturer since he listens for the same things that you do.

The challenges come in when you make your room bigger and the volume knob goes up. Otherwise, it's very much an "according to taste" thing and you seem to have solved that problem. Congrats, enjoy your sound. :)
