What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker?

I know totally blasphemy question here on Audiogon. But you like what you like, right? Anyway, I know most metal music is totally compressed and recorded horrible (aka Metallica) however there is a new age of metal bands out there that are starting to change that (Opeth started with Blackwater Park). So what speakers out there can take the pounding of a double bass drum kit hitting at full throttle and give the roar of metal guitar justice. There has to be a set up that would make Glen Tipton turn his head and say hell ya!

I think a lot of what makes a good “Metal’ speaker is what sound characteristics you enjoy in your presentation.

i love metal of all variety, but when listening to metal at home, I tend to prefer fast transients, detail, and refinement.

Listening to Revocation’s “Greatest is our Sin” right now on a pair of two month old Sound Lab M645s with the new bass focus panels, and loving it.

The bass isn’t cracking the walls, but I can hear every thing with excellent delineation.
