Budget around £600... don't mind if standmounters or floorstanders. Any suggestions? Music: mainly rock + metal... Cheers!
Speakers to go with Roksan Kandy L3 amp

I'd say either brand new Monitor Audio RS6's or the BR5's
If youre ok with 2nd hand i'd look at B&W 603 S2's, 603 S3's or the 604 S3's if you can find them on Ebay.
Depends on size of playing room as well, floorstanders may be too much but with such a powerful amp, they'll all work very well, especially the M/A RS6's
I've got them and with music like SOAD, Linkin Park, Metallica, Tool, Iron Maiden etc they do very, VERY well!

Thought we had this conversation before? Your amp has a 'big sound' with power to spare but its not the most focused or detailed example so you need speakers that are 'strong' in that respect.
I'd suggest going the ATC way. The entry level standmount is around £450 depending where you buy. Add good solid stands such as Partingtons for another £150 and you should be ok.
The baby ATC's are an IB (closed enclose) design so you should get an even Bass response. They are very insensitive but the upshot is real bass without the need for much wall re-inforcement. - Personally I dont like them but I guess they will work well with your amp.
On an other note, some of the best bass (and sound full stop) I've ever heard was with Ruark Sabre's, also an IB speaker. I'm looking for a pair at the moment so keep your cuban fingers out of my pie or I'll have to assasinate you fidel.

ex-demo Acoustic energy AE1, Tannoy Sensy DC2 or (I keep repeating myself here, sorry) Neat Acoustic as they do rocks like a lemmy on speed!
