    What's a good replacement for my beloved Energy C-6s?

    Yes for sure. My Velodyne CT-100 was considered the bargain of the year back in the late 90s. It could actually dip down in the high 20s. That was unheard of as most big name subs were only doing mid to high 30s in it's price range. Things are better now as even a budget priced subwoofer as my...

    What's a good replacement for my beloved Energy C-6s?

    There is still good ported subs and reasons to use them. I called SVS and talked along time to 2 different salesmen. I told them what I wanted and what I wanted to upgrade to. I also told them I wanted to stick to a budget. For my size room and my want of accuracy for music, they recommended...

    I went with bookshelf speakers for the same reason as I have opposite experiences as you. At one time we had 2 kids running around the house, 3 cats, and 1 dog. Now just 1 kid, 1 cat, and 1 dog. The animals all liked to play rough with one another, as did the kids! My Infinity Reference 2000.4...

    What's a good replacement for my beloved Energy C-6s?

    I just bought the Elacs Debut 2.0 B6.2 6-1/2" woofer & 1" tweeter bookshelves and the Elac Debut 2.0 C6.2 Center channel. They sound great and are affordable. The Debut Reference speakers are said to be even better. As far as a 3 way, unless it's absolutely needed, I rather stick to a simpler 2...
