Good Speakers for Rock and Roll Under 15K


I have nice speakers for acoustics, jazz, vocals, etc. but are not great for rock and roll.  Would welcome any recommendations for speakers that do a great job with classic rock and roll.  I will add some components in my system that might influence thinking:

New Audio Frontiers Tube Preamp, New Audio Frontiers 845 Tube Power Amp, Lampizator Atlantic DAC, Innuos Zenith Streamer, Tchernov cables.

PBN M1!5…. Can’t beat these for the money and quality. Hand built by Peter himself.   Take a look and reach out if any questions.  I have a few of his speakers.  Also have someone with the bigger 15s which are insane.

B&W 805 (if you like Monitor speakers), Infinity, Thiel or Vandersteen are all great Rock-N-Roll loudspeakers. Keep me posted on your purchase decision. Big Jazz fan here as well.

 

Happy Listening!

Klipsch LaScala's placed about with fronts about 4 ft. out from the front wall or for more money, Klipschorns in the corner.  You system should sweeten the sound of the horns nicely and they's be about right for power.  Dynamic as all hell.  They don't go super deep, but the bass is very potent.  My friend has the corner horns and has broken a couple of his windows from the pressure wave at high volume levels.  He loves them for rock.

+5 or whatever for Legacy. I’ve only heard the Signatures but they were stunning with rock related material.

People are suggesting $25,000 ATC’s (ATC SCM50ASLT) the OP requested $15k price ceiling. Which is why I suggested Legacy Focus XD's, they are a hell of a value for that $.
