You should give ATC speakers a hard look — they do dynamics like few others and are very well suited for rock music and many other genres as well. Here’s a nice pair…

Best of luck.
which excels at Rock and Roll
Room is 14X14' No treatments, but, room currently sounds great. Amp PASS X250.8, Fritz Carbon 7se bookshelves, LA-4 preamp, SVS SB3000 sub, Bricasti M5 streamer, Meitner DAC, only Rock and Roll, 85 or so DB Considering used, Platimon VC 1, Arendal 15-28, Marten Oscar, Acora MRB-1, and Small tower, Devore Fidelity Gibbon super 9. There are others, but, I believe these would be the top contenders, USED? Any and all responses welcomed. Love my FRITZ and won't sell. Just considering the above. Thanks, Robert TN

Dynaudio is the speaker to beat for aggressive Rock n Roll music, they excel in this area, the more power you have (in solid state form) the better too. I drive a pair of 25 year old Contour 3.0 Dynaudios and I use 2 stereo amps in mono for 700 watts per side, the Contours are rated at 200 watts, the extra power really makes these speakers shine with incredible detail and pace, timing, sound stage. Sure I could drive them with a nice 200 watt per side amplifier but then I would have nice music instead of Instruments in my listening room!

@robshaw Speakers and electronics don't care what music you like or don't and don't favor a certain genre. That is one of the most common an persistent myths in audio. It really is a myth. No-one has found a way to design either amp or speaker to favor a certain musical genre. They are equally good or bad at their jobs regardless of the genre. |
