What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker?


I know totally blasphemy question here on Audiogon. But you like what you like, right? Anyway, I know most metal music is totally compressed and recorded horrible (aka Metallica) however there is a new age of metal bands out there that are starting to change that (Opeth started with Blackwater Park). So what speakers out there can take the pounding of a double bass drum kit hitting at full throttle and give the roar of metal guitar justice. There has to be a set up that would make Glen Tipton turn his head and say hell ya!

If your room (and bank account) is big enough, the big MBL (101 or larger) speakers should work well. The company typically demos their speakers with crazy high SPL hard rock at shows. Generally speaking, the music isn't my cup of tea, but the speakers certainly make an impression.
