Best speaker for rock music


What is a great, reasonably priced speaker/studio monitor that will really excel on rock/dance/techno? I would imagine this same type of system would also sound great for home theater. I have a small to medium size room, 15' x 13' with cathedral ceilings. I already have a nice audiophile rig but it has the familiar problems with most compressed rock and techno recordings. Thanks, Mike

I don't want to start another thread within this one. Email me for a list of notes that i've accumulated from modding more than a few sets of their older series of speakers. Sean >
There's only one option. Definitive Technology's BP2000TL's. They sound as good as Martin Logans, but have enough bass to rock your world. They're bipolar, they have a 15" sub w/500watt amp in each speaker. Soundstage is amazing. There isn't a better set of speakers in this price range nor for even twice the price.
I have to ditto the Avalons. I just got a pair of the Opus, and can't believe how good it sounds with all music. Extremely musical with the punch to rock.
