Best speaker for songs like Heart - Alone

I just listened to that song, both the original and the digitally remastered. It is a tad bright and definately lacks bass and "punch". It sounded fine at moderate to low listening levels. My advice is to get a subwoofer or eq; some way to adjust the bass would help you out. I wouldn't ever use just one song to assess a stereo and like others have said, in order to build a stereo to make that one song sound good, you'll be comprimising the sound on most other songs.

Thanks for some suggestions folks! I have not got many specific recommendations of speakers and amp. So I hope for more suggestions what to check out!
It's more important for me to compromise, it's not so important that fantastic recordings sounds fantastic. A fantastic recording can sound "great" in my ears as long as bad recordings sounds "good".
Is it so difficult to find a system that plays (fexample) this song in a good way?

Given your responses, Rockpanther, this may be one of the few times in my life I would suggest an older used speaker, despite your desire for new. If you go new, with your budget you will likely sacrifice bass extension, which I can't see you enjoying. An older, very capable floor standing speaker might also be warmer; I'm thinking of Vandersteen 2CE or similar, which I owned long ago. These, and other Vandersteen 1, 2 or 3 series earlier speakers can be found in abundance, they have very respectable sound, and will not be fatiguing/harsh. You can also afford them if you don't have thousands to throw around.

You may also wish to go hear a panel speaker, because they sound quite different and you may love what they do. But be careful, because they can sound a bit unforgiving in the high end. Usually you can work with the treble.
Magnepan is everywhere, so listen to one and you'll know if it's a flavor of sound you like. It is definitely worth your time to check it out. The bass is thinner with a panel speaker typically, but you can supplement it with a subwoofer and get plenty of boom. For your interests it may be a winning idea. :)

When i was starting out Vandersteen and Magnepan were two speakers I could afford and kept me satisfied... for a while. :)

Rock-

there are 2 paths to choose;
since the song is 80's Rock, you can go vintage and look into Infinity speakers- I suggest the Crescendo series.
Or, you can buy newer designed loudspeakers like my reference, Thiel. I suggest the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7.
These speakers are simply outdtanding- you can use solid-state / Tubed gear. Keep me posted & Happy Listening! JA

Interesting... I was going to recommend Vandersteen 2's also. I think It might be the sound Panther is after.
