Good ROCK speakers

Im Running a set of DefTech 2004TLs for my main speaks.

One general concensus on this board is these are better used for HT than 2ch due to the bipolar design.

Well, im sure you all kno what you are talking about, and im looking to overhaul my front end to a prepro/amp system. HTY with integrated 2CH w seperate amp

There are alot of different people with different tastes, and i like to really be able to ROCK. Crank it up and jam out without distortion.

Im planning on moving my deftech 2004tls to the surrounds, and my bp6's to the rear, giving me space for new front speakers.

Whaats are some real good speakers to ROCK out with? Loud and proud, clear and full range.

Ive been thinking of possible vandersteens. Also considered ML, but im not too sure how much tthese are made to ROCK!!!!

suggestions?

Any metalheads out there with some advise?

I own the following -the VMPs RM 40's, the Legacy Focus 20/20, the Martin Logan Odyssey , the Gershman Acoustic RX 20's. The 20/20 and 40's rock more than the other two. I am not just chimming in.

I went with the Shearwaters. In my opinion you will be floored when you listen to Tool, Metallica, AC/DC, etc. through the Shearwaters or Vandersteens. You will hear things for the first time, even though you heard the CD 100 times before.
I'm using a NAD 218 (250/ch), when I want to listen loud I just turn on the subs, and use a crossover at 120. Most CD's I could make my ears bleed w/ no distortion from the ML.
And when you turn it down and run full range it's hard to beat the detail and imaging.

JBL 4344 or the new JBL K2 Series speakers. Please see http://www.jbl.com/home/products/series.asp?SerId=K2 I heard them recently, and they are absolutely awesome with ROCK!!!! But don't play classical music on them, because you will be disappointed.......

Drubin: I've had multiple pairs of Hereys's and La Scala's and still have a pair of each of them. All of them have been modified to various extents and i would not be horribly upset if i was stuck with either set of speakers so long as i could build my system around them. Sean

I own the Legacy Signature III. one notch down from the Legacy focus and they can Rock ! I do agree with the above posters who are tellling you your Def Tech speakers may not be the problem. Its what your feeding your speakers. The Best speakers in the world will sound terible with a weak front end of if they are underpowered.
