The reality I think, is that rock and roll goes hand in hand with loud. Anything can play loud, but so much music is compressed, as so many speakers. This is why I threw in that jazz piece as a demo for everyone to try. Playing Satch and Ozzy means nothing. BTW, my favorite Satch is his '95 recording, for sq. There are many more excellent tracks that can be used to demonstrate superior aspects of dynamic range, transient response, etc. Keeping it simple, listen to Your Momma Don't Dance, by L&M....a much better recording to evaluate what some of us are talking about here. Playing loud and playing clean, simultaneously, is at the heart of the matter, ime. My best, MrD
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.
