Yes, it's been a very slow process, but these are the last steps. I went through the drug screening and now finishing up the background check so it's almost done. It's interesting that the Company doing the background check on me is getting most of it's information from me.

After the fiasco with the ESW-C10, I'm considering getting the Klipsch SW-110. There are almost no reviews of this sub. Well, there is one but it's so incoherent that it could have been written by Charlie Sheen. I posted in the Klipsch subwoofer thread but I don't have hope that I will get a response. I saw the SW-110 this past weekend for $250 shipped and it seems like a much better deal than the ESW-C10 for $220.

Congrats on this new purchase, sad that you have to wait before you can start breaking those in.

I'm a little late in mentioning this, but I'm officially an Energy owner now! I got two CF-30s, a CC-10 and 4 CB-5s. Along with the Pioneer VSX-1020 and the BIC America V1220 these sound fabulous!

Please show us your setup once you have this thing put together.

Congrats on the new setup, I have seen the pics of your CF-30 boxes in your gallery.

Amazing review on the Veritas bookshelf and I have to say they are in fact some of the best looking speakers I have seen in that Rosewood high gloss Finish, I have seen and heard the Veritas 6.3 in both finishes and seriously wow.

My RC50's are breaked in for about 22-25 hrs. They have started sounding very nice but yesterday i noticed that my left speaker sounds very opened, clear and detailed compared to the right one.

1. I changed the "BALANCE" setting on the AVR to extreme Left (L +8DB) and then extreme Right (R +8db). Now the difference was even more noticeable.

2. Then i removed the wires and re-wired them. But again same results.

3. Then i hooked the right speaker to the Left section on the AVR and vice versa. Again, Left speaker dominated the right one. This proves that there is no problem with the AVR.

4. Then i removed the grills and checked the drivers while playing a song. By touching them, it seems all three to be working properly. At one feet, i kept my ears close to the drivers. Left speaker tweeter sounded brighther compared to right speaker tweeter.

RC50 bought from Amazon (WWStereo). I am using 12AWG 3 Mtr Oxygen Free speaker cables. Is it that right speaker is not properly broken in (against recommended 100 hrs). Can anyone suggest me what could be another problem. Tonight, i will change the speaker cables and probably interchange the speaker position (Right speaker with left speaker and vice versa)

Good Luck darshanjoshi. Hopefully Olivier or Steve can chime in this morning.

If the problem is not solved, maybe exchanging it? I know it's a big inconvenience, but if it doesn't sound normal that's what I would.

Don't worry. I think I didn't properly broke in my C-100 speakers 2 years ago and now they just sit there under a desk collecting dust.

Huh if even after switching them it was still the left the problem, I don't see how it is your speakers since you right became your left.

Can we have a pic of the room with speaker positioning?

Oliver, I think he is saying that the Right Speaker is speaker A, and the Left Speaker is speaker B, B speaker seems to dominate A speaker.

I would check in to see if WWstereo used one as a demo, that might be why one is better then the other, otherwise there could have been and issue that occured during shipping. When I bought from WWS, one of my Towers was damaged by UPS, and they sent me another one right away. Call them right away and see what they will do for you. Im sure they will be more then accomidating.

For speaker positioning, you can see my HT Gallery.

Unfortunately i am not from US. I did import them to India. After reading all the reviews and prices at which they were sold ($540/pair), i just could not resist. Locally they were available @ 70% higher price with 1 year warranty. So took the risk of importing. They are not demo piece by any chance. Excellent finish with original packing.


Do not have time today to change the speaker positions but will try it on sunday and let you'll know the results. Thanks for all your help guys !!

Try pulling the right speaker away from the wall. It appears to be almost right up against it, whereas your left speaker has a bit of breathing room behind it.

it's still not clear cause look at what I bolded from your post, so by switching them if it's still the left that has the problem then the problem is not the speakers.

A. Originally AVR's Left speaker section was connected to Left hand speakers and Right speaker section to Right hand Speakers (Properly connected. I noticed the difference that left hand speakers are sounding better.
B. i swapped the cables on the back of AVR. So now AVR's left speaker section is giving output to Right speaker and vice versa.

In original setting(A), left was sounding better. In setting (B), again left is sounding better. So problem is the speaker and AVR.

Today, i swapped the speakers physically left to right and right to left. Original left speaker which was sounding better is now on right hand side. So now right hand speakers are sounding better. So its confirmed that its to do with speakers and not even positioning.

I can recollect the music when they both were new, they sounded eqaully unopened, undetailed. It seems that one speaker is opened up very nicely and the other still sounds the same way as they were newly opened.

I think its not to do with drivers. All three seems to giving sound properly but not as good as other one. Maybe they are not broken in properly or some wiring issues inside the speakers.

Sorry if i not unable to explain properly.

No problem it's a bit odd that one has opened up more than the other in this case. Try to finish the break in, That would really suck if you had to return one of them. I know you are not in the US and you took it on WWS, those guys usually have great service.

Maybe you could email them and see what they can do. I don't recall any QA issue on the RC line so it could be in the transportation, I hat to have to return merchandise and wait again.
