Tool fan needs help with speakers (and electronics)


Just like the title says. I mainly listen to Progressive Metal, Grunge and Classic Rock.

I'm looking to build a system with an emphasis on speakers. My all in budget is $5K. Will consider used. My listening room is 4,368 cubic feet. 21' (L) x 16' (W) x 13' (H). Tile floor. No acoustic treatments. Not currently interested in vinyl or tube amps.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

Look into the Spatial Audio M3 Turbo S.
After experiencing what their smaller siblings can do for the price, I will never again consider the common suspect brands when speaker shopping (B&W, Focal, Monitor Audio, Paradigm, etc). It's not that these brands don't make good speakers, just that you can get much better performance for your money with a factory-direct brand.

I'd also consider Zu Audio and Tekton speakers. 

All three brands are known for their dynamics.
