Bass reflex 12-15" floor standing speakers
 

Hi Audiophiles!

Hoping those in the know provide some recs. What brands are left for home 12-15" bass reflex speakers that can handle 200-300 watts for SUSTAINED amounts of time?

I already blew out 3 pairs of KLH 9250B speakers, (I return the same pair to BestBuy each time they blow out). They are truly crap, but dirt cheap and there doesn't seem to be much brand selection left in any chain store I've visited. Years ago there were lots of choices and I'm trying to avoid expensive DJ brands like EAW.

I've seen other brands in stores but mostly small bass and for home theater use. I play LOUD dance, R&B music with lots of bass.

Thanks for any insight provided.

KLH is CRAP...

HOW much BASS do you want??
Ever hear of a TRANSDUCER??? Its called SHACK THE HOUSE.. You can FEEL the bass.

And how much are you willing to spend, on a good BASS..POWERED, or NOT?

Transducer isn't that a component used to transfer energy from one form to another, like a battery. Its a generic term for a speaker, but there are many types of transducers. When the guy wants to buy a porchse don't recommend that he should get a car or a motor vechile or a hydrocarbon burning chassis.
