I bought Klipsch AW-650 Indoor/Outdoor Speakers to replace some old Yamahas and couldn't be more happy. They can play clean and loud and cover the whole yard and the neighbors. Using my mid-level Yamaha receiver, he'd have plenty of power as the speakers are also easy to drive.

As Brian mentioned, the Klipsch RP-600M is basically the same as my AW-650s. You could also go up to the R-620F which adds a second woofer if he can work with a floorstander.

Thanks Rod. I have asked my son to check out the Klipsch M600. He had listened to a Triangle speaker at a friend's and liked it a lot. But too costly. Meanwhile he enjoys his Apple headphones.

  The stock RP-600M is OK for the money.
  
  Should the itch for improvements ever combine with a few hundred extra dollars in extra pocket change, anyone can smooth out RP-600M frequency response and reduce unwanted cabinet resonances with a DIY upgrade kit from GR Research...

    Giving up a little bit of bass for better driver integration, smaller cabinet, smoother sound...

      I have asked my son to listen to both Klipsch 600 and 500 before deciding. Thanks for the suggestion. I am tempted to listen too.
