I have to say that I started my hobby with Energy Pro 22 ...the original speaker that put Energy on the map. I STILL OWN THIS SPEAKER 25 years later....while I have owned many others and let them go....these will never be sold. They were used by CBC as reference monitors. They have the legendary hyperdome tweeter.
My current speakers are all ATC and these are the speakers that made the 3" dome mid range design famous. Whilst my ATC SCM 100 actives can play louder with more dynamic range, a slightly tighter bass, a slight bit more articulation/detail in the midrange than the Energy Pro 22's ever could ...there are striking similarities between these monitors in that they share fundamentally the same accurate low distortion with wide dispersion/image and great dynamics...and yet the Energy Pro 22 were but are a mere fraction of the cost of my ATC SCM 100's and they were a mere two way design!!
I can't say enough good things about Energy speakers. The Veritas being a three way design with a closely integrated dome mid and dome tweeter sounds absolutely awesome and would be first on my list to audition if I didnt already own the ATC's. Are the Veritas better than ATC's ....I would say they don't quite have the dynamic range/SPL power (while remaining at low distortion) of ATC's but the sound is pretty close and when you factor in their lower cost I bet many people might say they are better suited for domestic applications where you rarely get to use the kind of power the larger studio ATC's are capable of. To be fair, I guess the SCM 35's might give the Veritas a run for their money in terms of quality and value but I have not heard the 35's to compare.
In any case, all I am saying is that I agree with all the positive comments on this thread 100%.
