Dave Matthews Band: best speakers for this type of music

2007-04-02 00:00:20

I listen to a lot of Dave Matthews band(I listen to a lot of their live stuff).  What type of speakers/headphones are best for this type of music. 

I'm not really looking for specific speakers but for what a speaker would have that would make this type of music sound great.

Funny...

As I read this, I am listening to "Live at Red Rocks" through my Sony V6 phones, with the volume at "eleven".

Yeah that it a good cd.  you should check out weekend at the rocks.  Its pretty new and it has really good song diversity on it and the sound recording is the best out of any of their live stuff.

Have that one too ;-)  The first Red Rocks has my favorite version of "Seek Up".

Yeah the long live versions of that song are really good.  I prefer the one from the gorge.

OK, now for the real questions here: I personally don't believe in that "best speakers for some kind of music" things, it all depends on how much money do you want to spend on your system, and of course, do you like how it sounds together. There is no sweet combination of amp-cabling-player-speaker which will convince me that it would sound best for that particular type of music, but when you take one guitar out from the band and put in synthesizer, it will sound like a crap. Speakers are speakers, they will reproduce what you give them. No less, no more.

And oh, what if bass guitaris changes amps?
