There might be speakers made to a specific type of music but I wouldn't have any speaker made that way. Ever.
Take a long, hard look at all the different types of speakers and see how they portray the human voice, and then acoustic instruments. If they can do that in a convincing manner, then they should be able to handle almost any kind of music genre you can think of, clipping aside (that's where the amp comes into play).
From my experience, I prefer widebanders with some kind of tweeter augmentation. The payoff is coherence, imaging, timing (some of your English types refer to it as PRaT) and a wonderful sense of involvement.
Any decent amp can play the middle man so make sure your source is up to par with what you want to hear and how you want to hear it. Remember the old adage: garbage in, garbage out.
That's my take on the whole affair and it's what I've settled for. Good luck in what you chose and don't be a big hurry to upgrade.
All the best,
Nonoise
