Hmmmmmmm...... I would be a bit worried if some equipment worked with some music and some equipment worked with other kinds of music..... Guess I'm a bit in the same situation myself... I've got a pair of Duntech PCL-15's (made in Australia of course) that's about the best speakers I have heard at any price when it comes to presenting small scale music with female vocals... Listen to the closest thing to crazy with Katie Melua and you will possibly have tears in your eyes... Try heavy rock and everything falls apart.... I guess we should try to aim for rig's that work with all kinds of music with all our equipment. ...or should we? I wouldn't really mind switching speakers every now and then, perhaps if I used an active crossover with my Duntech's they would work heaps better because the issue with them is that they don't tolerate deep bass at high power levels... If we can dig into what's the issue with our equipment and find an affordable way to resolve... That's a significant step ahead.... b.t.w.
