I recall hearing Energy speakers at a Best Buy years ago. I had just heard a Klipsch model that literally hurt my ears. I love the idea of efficient speakers but just can’t seem to tolerate horns. Anyway, the Energy was very nicely behaved and a real value — a combination of performance and price. Nothing can replace your own two ears when it comes to speaker preference.
Energy speakers
Hey everyone, I'm new here. I'm searching for some new towers, and I was wondering if anyone has experiene with the Energy brand. I understand they're a little more laid-back compared to some of the competition, but I have B&W DM601s, and I keep seeing comparisons between B&W and Energy. What do you guys think?

@jfuquay which model was it? I was reading about a model that did sound kinda harsh. |
Looks like the Energy brand is having it's "moment." I had a pair of RC30's year's back. To clarify the comment made about their pedigree: They were MIC(made in China) boxes-good, price point value boxes-nothing more. The RC line was MIC. Energy speakers made in the 70's-80's were Canadian. Like most companies, the only way to offer competitive product is go MIC. baritone1898- perhaps mentioning your budget and associated gear might be more useful for suggestions.

Consider a pair of Coincident Triumph Extreme monitor speakers. Super easy to drive, so they don't need to be played loud to be heard, & for a monitor they go pretty low. You get it all without upsetting your neighbors. Frequency Response: 45 hz - 35 khz (+/- 3 db). |
