What are the specifications I should pay attention to, like values of impedance, frequency range and such?
I want them to be able to play drum'n'bass and dubstep very well, which means a lot of bass and low frequencies.
I was thinking something alonge the lines of these: Click here (Sorry for Croatian link...)
But they don't seem to have very big frequency range (lowest frequency maybe not being low enough?).
What are other good brands of speakers? |

Those speakers won't go that low, due to them being physically limited. The woofers on those speakers are too small to recreate the low end. Add a subwoofer if you want lower frequencies paired with those. Or buy some cabinet style speakers. Cerwin Vega is known for their low-end output. However, they may not be the clearest on the high end. |

| Those speakers you posted are meant to be paired with a subwoofer for a 5.1 surround system. |

get two of these plus a 1000 watt amp to go with the speakers from your link and you will be set.
You need these |

What's your budget?
I'd go for two nice 5" of 6" self-powered studio monitors from someone like KRK or Samson, coupled with a 10" or 12" subwoofer.
You're never going to get a single cone speaker with a wide enough frquency range to satisfy you.
That said, I use only 2 x 5" at home and I like them okay without a woofer. |

| Alesis M1 Active MK2 are great hifi active speakers for a reasonable price with bass enough to rock the house |

I'm no expert, but I think the answer might be that specifications aren't allways that accurate a gauge, and you should just listen to them yourself.
I got some companion 3s back in 2004. They are great, awesome bass response and very nice highs too (as well as a built in stereo processing thing which makes mp3s sound way better). |
