Energy RC-70
$1,100.00
Released July, 2008
The Pros:Finish - laminated in real wood veneer. Produces well balanced highs. Produces tighter, deeper base when compared to competing floorstanding speakers.
The Cons:Made in China - no longer made in Ontario. Has a 2-3 month burn-in period. Speaker grills attach magnetically - potentially an issue for those concerned about resonance.
The Energy RC-70 is a 3-way floorstanding speaker from Energy's high-end Reference Connoisseur Series and is suitable for medium to large-sized rooms. The speaker is designed with a 1" chambered aluminum dome tweeter for accurate sound reproduction and is a step up from the RC-50 since it includes a 5.5" Kevlar midrange for a wider frequency response.
