I've been reading the Energy thread over on AVSforum, trying to figure out which I'd like more. I like the appearance of the Veritas series slightly better than the RC series, but wouldn't mind upgrading my entry level bedroom speakers to either( as long as they provide the smooth highs I heard from the CB-10 ). Of course, because of space constraints, the fronts will be in soundbar formation( underneath the TV ).  
Possible combinations?
( 2 x RC10, RCLCR, 2 x VS )
( 3 x RCLCR, 2 x VS )
( 2 x V5.1, V5.2C, 2 x VS )
( 3 x V5.2C, 2 x VS )
( 3 x V5.1, 2 x VS ) |
I ended up ordering three RC-LCR's. They are replacing a pair of Paradigm Atom Monitor v.6 & a Paradigm CC-190 v.6 . For now, the sub & the surrounds remain unchanged. The Paradigm's had their shining moments( Acoustic string instruments, A'cappella singing, etc... ), but the Energy's are a better fit for my ears, overall. The first thing I noticed when I unpacked them, was that photos don't do them justice( they look better in person
). Anyway, here are a few pics...
