Best speakers for 3 cord rock and roll

Don't know where you're located, but another set of JBL 4430's showed up today ($1800-ish), BUT they're a "local pick-up only" in the L.A. area.

Just an another sugestion...

I agree with horns....but not horn shoppe....go for classic Tannoys, Altec/JBL's such as the famous "baboons butt" speaker or older concentric designs. You have a large space to fill...so I would pick these up real cheap and then use the money you save to get a sub. Then you will be a "King Bee"!

Shadorne - curious, why not Horn Shoppes?

I don't think that small 4 inch drivers can keep up with bass requirements of rock and roll...that is all. I guess in my minds eye I see "The Who" with stacked JBL's and big woofers as the epitomy of speakers of that "Animal House" era and not something more suited to modern domestic use, such as the nice looking and very easy to drive Horn Shoppes. I have nothing against Horn Shoppes but it just didn't strike me as quite the best fit in a largish room...

Even if someone hose-clamps a set around their cranium?
