I'd try PSB's if you can find them used. Also, The Golden Ear line pumps out quite a bit of bass for little money. You might be happier with some good monitors and subwoofer setup if you have room to play around. You really gotta audition with your favorite music before buying, though.
Speaker for modern/alt rock music
I have a $2000 budget.
Using an amp that outputs 125W into 8ohms.
I just purchased the Anthony Gallo Strada 2's.
They are the same as the upper part of the well known reference 3.5's.
Anyways, although they sound really good on acoustic/classical/vocal music, they sound really messy and harsh on modern music and alternative rock stuff. I feel like almost all speakers do "audiophile" music very well.
Two of my favorite artists are Flyleaf and Paramore.
Can anyone recommend some speakers (used or new) under $2000 that are good for this kind of music?
Something that can keep up with fast passages with great instrument separation and is as transparent as possible.
Also, it would be good if it is forgiving of poorly recorded songs.
Thanks!
