Energy speakers

Energy was disconnected awhile back I thought?

I have a pair of RC-70 and I like them ok but with your budget I’d look to get some Revel F208 or F206. (I have both)
 

how big is the space you’re going to be putting them in? 

"Energy was disconnected awhile back I thought?"

A statement that makes no sense with a question mark...

20 years ago, I owned a pair of Energy speakers. I enjoyed them just fine. Good value for the price. I replaced them with Paradigm Studio 100s which was a noticeable step up.
If your budget is $5k, you have a lot of options. I just went through the process of buying new speakers with a similar budget. My short list came down to Fritz Speakers and Spatial Audio. I was able to demo Spatials but not the Fritz. I went with a pair of Spatial M4s because of the open baffle design. They have incredible sound stage and detail. I doubt I’ll ever go back to a box speaker, but if I had to, I’d start with Fritz.

Going on a couple years now w the rc-70 speakers. 
they are the best sounding,speakers I’ve heard, with the altec Lansing 510s a close second.

they keep getting better!
