Do they make Speakers For Rap/Rock


It seems that from all the discussions and reveiws, I have read that 99% of the speakers that are reveiwed are done with Classical, opera, jazz or other like music. My question is; Do any of the high end speaker manufacturers make audiophile speakers that are designed for the Rap, Hip-hop, hard rock, loud volume listener???

If you're looking for a temp system that you can set up just for the party, how about something like a powered Mackie spkr?

If something more like a standard type system, I like the sound of EAW spkrs and Emilar horns. For power you can use a stack of QSC amps & to avoid somebody cranking the system to destruction, set some limiters for max SPL's. This is a "party system" and nobody will be doing any critical listening with this stuff.

Lot's of good sources for this type of gear other than on-line. You might check the local music stores & bulletin boards there, as bands are always selling gear & local ads in trading post & local paper.
Hmm, I was making a delivery at the back of Cherry Point MCAS and they were conducting jet engine tests with the engine off the jet & on a stand. That was the loudest damn thing I ever heard & I had 29 dB earplugs in.

My system could play just over 110 dB at the listening spot & a jet engine is way beyond that-I'd say more like 150 dB's.

Just thought I'd mention that.
