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

zenaudio: the avalon symbols are $3k, IMHO a quite reasonable price given their performance. it's the big bad boys at avalon that get pricey. ;~)

i highly recommend avalon's latest, the symbol. i have heard these now in about a half-dozen setups, the two latest at ces. my older son is awaiting delivery of a pair. he's an internet/radio consultant and listens to all kinds of stuff (except classical); it all sounds real good on the symbols. it you care for more info, send me a private email. and, no, i'm not affiliated with avalon, tho i've owned 3 pair of their speakers, currently running eidolons (which also sound fabulous with rock sources, BTW).
