In Reply to: speakers in around the $8k -) $10k range to better what I currently use? posted by bullethead on January 20, 2015 at 06:06:53:
I chose the Gallo Reference 3.5 as one of the best 5 rooms at CES (based on rooms with speakers under $10,000) a few years back and a large part of that was based on their ability to play hard hitting rock music at high levels with supreme clarity.
Many of the audiophile speakers that seem popular are not really geared to do justice to do rock and don;t do it particularly well.
So I'd struggle to come up with something that for Rock music I would like as much as the Gallo 3.5. You can probably tailor them in numerous ways to get the sound you want - if they're a bit bright - find a way to shelve that down - not bright enough get a more open sounding amp or something - they're pretty darn impressive and the price isn't stupid. Personally, out of the speakers mentioned thus far - I would keep the Gallo for Rock/metal/electronic/thrash. Perhaps that would change a bit with other music but the Gallo was quite good on Eva Cassidy and Sarah McLachlan - it's hardly a one trick pony. It would probably be taken more seriously if they charged more for them - which is kind of a sad statement.
