No more Zu Dirty Weekends replacement suggestions


Hello. My son is turning 30 so I thought i would get him something that he would use daily. I decided to get him Zu Dirty weekends and put together a starter system for him. Now that they  are no more  I have no idea what speakers to look at in the 1200 range. He like all types of music but leans towards EDM and rap often. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you.

I own Zu’s and for that style of music might look elsewhere.  Used Monitor Audio or Focal maybe?  

It seems like rap is an odd genre of music to sound good w/ Zu speakers but may be wrong. I would think that a speakers w/ a more authoritative dynamic bass would be a better choice.

I wondered about something in the klipsch line. His interest was peaked when he went speaker shopping with me for magnepans 3.7i’s. When. He found out they had. The LRS he just anout ordered them. I explained to him that I beleive he would eventually be disappointed with the LRS’s with some of his music. Plus space would be a bit of a concern.
