Hi Folks, I bought a pair of Energy C-500 1 month ago and found that it's my most satisfying speaker in terms of bass extension, especially in a tiny floor case. I don't even need a powered subwoofer to reach that low frequency which I guess is around 40Hz. I have a pair of Energy Connoisseur C9...

Seems like Energy could have thought up some different names. Search turns up lots of ESW-C10, a few ESW-V10, and almost no ESW-10 which looks like the only down firing version. They all look very much alike. Can anyone explain the other differences, such as changes in amplifiers, country of...

Hey all, I've got a problem! I picked up an Energy Veritas 2.0 Center Speaker--great stuff, BUT the tweeter isn't working. My plan is to cannibalize the two bullet woofers/drivers and sell them. Problem: Removing the tweeter was easy. The woofers seem to be held on by a bolt in the back. I...

Anyone happen to know the impedence of a V2.4 Woofer? anyone have one to slap a meter on one?

Hello everyone, I'm working on a pair of ESM-1s speakers. One of the woofers has a cracked rubber surround. The surround is glued and stitched to the poly cone, so replacing the surround would be problematic. I haven't been able to find any specs on this speaker cabinet or driver. There also...

Does anyone out there possibly know what spec audio taper and linear taper potentiometers an Energy AS-180 subwoofer takes? I dearly love this big old woofer and both pots are shot and need replacing. They are both labeled “100k”, but I’m uncertain as to wattage... Any thoughts out there? Thanks!

Hello AK'ers A friend is selling me a PANAMAX M5300ex, good shape, it turns on BUT have the problems shown in the pics.... the price is very very low (compared with a new equipment) but i can't find diagrams about the line conditioner does it worth to repair? anyone with a diagram of it...

In my quest to find a decent subwoofer for a reasonable price I have acquired a free Energy EPS-100. While it had it's issues it proudly donated it's repaired plate amp along with the part of the box that once contained it. Currently it is powering the teo 8in drivers in a Cambridge Soundworks...

Hi all! I've been out of the audio world for about 15 years and I only knew pros, wasn't one myself, so I don't trust myself not to screw this up and I really don't want to damage any of my equipment. Any advice would be beyond appreciated, even if it's "hire someone." I inherited my...

So, over the last few years I have acquired a number of modest priced items and here they are: Energy RC-10 Bookshelf Speakers ($400) Orb Mini-T Amp ($100 and smaller than dozen CDs stacked) Monoprice 12 gauge wire (call it $10) Monster Cable Banana and Pin Connectors (call it $15)...

I have an original 1986 pair of these speakers and no longer have the floor stands. Would like to buy a set of these stands or something like them if any can be found. The originals had a top plate about 12 inches off the floor in the front, tilted up 5 to 10 degrees, with spikes or a...

I'm having a hard time here.....Unsure which way to go. I really need the expertise of Audiokarma's finest. I have a choice on a pair of : 1) Thiel CS1.2 in Piano Black, still packed away in original boxes 2) Vandersteen 1C's in Black with original boxes 3) Vandersteen 2CE with sound anchor...

I am wanting to do some basic repairs to an Energy EPS-12 Subwoofer. It has an auto-off function and does not always shut off as it should. I am going to do a basic recap on it while I am inside. I also just found a trimmer on the circuit board, so would like to know the settings for that little...

Hey all, I recently got a clean pair of Energy Pro 22's and hooked them up in my living room. They sound great! I was wondering what subwoofer would match up well with these in a small room? These are doubling as both my music/theater rig. My living room is 12' x 20' Split level; open floor...

Hi, Just curious to know what would be the value of a system like this nowadays : - Pair of Energy Connoisseur CF-30 Speakers - Energy Connoisseur CC-10 Centre Speaker - Energy ESW-C10 Subwoofer Thanks!

Dear All, I am looking for a pair of speakers in Phoenix AZ. I currently have Athena AS-F1.2 Floor Standing Speakers. They sound really good. But as lot of people noticed, I have started to have listening fatique after listening to these for 40-60 minutes. I have very sensitive ears and I...

Trying to upgrade my condo stereo from a crappy Yamaha surround sound system to something a lot more substantial. I've already received a green card from my wife but since you guys know so much more than I do I thought I'd ask for advice. Here is what I found: 2x Polk RTA 11T (6ohm, 30-250W)...

Dear friends, My friend has offered me The Bookshelf Speaker : Bowers and Wilkins type DM601 S3 in 2nd condition but in very mint/line new condition include box, manual, plastic2 and so on... But I'd rather confused about 2nd hand price for the pair of speakers. - Can anyone give me information...

So my current bedroom set up is a set of energy 3.1e, and a paradigm pdr 10, running off a technics sa ax7 (not an ideal set up bud for what I have into it, it seems to sound half decent). There are a set of paradigm 5se mk3 for sale for $90, I was wondering if they are worth it, and if not what...

Hi, I have had a pair of Energy ESAT-2 speakers with rotten foam surround for a while. I ordered a surround repair kit for them as well. My question is upon disassembling the speakers there was a significant amount of glue holding the speaker basket to the front of the enclosure and some glue on...

Just my listening room in the basement, Used to be a large storage closet.

In this picture you will see some nice looking shoes! You will also see my DIY Pass Aleph 3 clone (black thing in front of tv stand), Audcom preamp sitting on top of other video equipment, and my Acoustic Energy 309's. I use Kimber 8PR for speaker cable and diy interconnects using Belden 89259A.
