Logans and Heavy Metal?

I am reall interested in a pair of Aerius I's, and I like all kinds of music. From Jazz to Country, Blues to Extermely Heavy Metal. I've heard these speakers with all kinds of music except Heavy Metal. I've read that they are not that great at the hard stuff. Is this really true? Is it a listenable reproduction of the music, or is it so bad that I should avoid them? Most of my Heavy Metal listening is at work or in the car, but there are those days... These speakers will be used as home theater as well. Any comments or other recommendations are greatly appreciated.
FYI the driving amp is an Odyssey Stratos.

I have the aerius i, hooked to a bat vk200 and at the time I borrowed a bat 3i pre. I played ozzy and metallica and was extremely impressed. They rocked the house w/out a sub. Bat stuff just takes the martins and makes them ROCK. A friend of mine who seen ozzy many times, said it was like he was there and he said he was impressed. Good luck Pete.

Okay, I forgot one thing. Add a sub, a very good sub and problem solved. I crank my aerius i's all the time(bat vk200 amp) and sub and I'm never disappointed. I listen to metallica and ozzy(crazy train) and have not had any problems. Good luck.

Well your probably right sean on with "old school". I don't listen to any of the bands you mentioned. And I call heavy metal ozzy, judis priest, metallica, scorpions, etc... I guess there's a huge difference in time. Wow I getting old. I talked to a friend of mine a few years younger and he said what I call heavy metal is completely different than this young generation. So to Ton1313 if you want panels you may want to audition them first with a good SS and a sub and see if you like it. Panels may not go as loud for you as they fill my needs fine. Good luck.
