What are the best speakers for 80's hard rock?

Hello folks!
I want suggestions for best speakers and amp for 80's hard rock music. Many bad recordings, so many high end speakers (and amps) sounds very harsh and hard, with little bass. It's more important to me that my stereo can play bad recordings in a good way, than play good recordings in a fantastic way.

I want very laidback and soft treble, but I want a bass that goes deep and alo is very punchy.

I know many people say that I should here on vintage speakers. But I want new speakers. Any price range!

Thanks for suggestions!

I sold CVs in the 80s and did not like them but they do work with rock so when someone wanted to rock that is what they got.
If you are sitting in a chair listening to them audiophile style with chin in your hand that will not work because they are easy to pick apart.
I still find a pair of Advents (NAL 1978-82)or Polk Monitor 10s to Just sound good I swear I enjoy listening to them more then semi high buck speakers I have tried I am not sure what it is They just get me going because they sound like music, flaws and all.
