NO speakers are 100% accurate. In fact, they're the least accurate, most seriously flawed part of the reproduction chain (unless you count the original microphones, or use a turntable as primary source). Transducers of any sort introduce FAR more distortions than even merely adequate electronics.
So you choose the set of compromises you favor, which may in turn be strongly influenced by the kind of music you favor. The OP wants "rock" speakers -- dynamic, efficient speakers with lots of jump factor and snap and sizzle, even at the expense of compromised timbral accuracy.
Not the best sort of speakers for string quartets or small ensemble jazz, perhaps, but better suited to his needs than the sort of inefficient, prissy, constipated, overpriced "audiophile" speakers Sam Tellig and Corey Greenberg used to rail against.
